CAT6 bends ( Ubiquiti Access Point )

Hi Guys,

I run solid CAT6 23awg Plenum in my attic to two Ubiquiti APs.

I know solid shouldn’t be crimped but I didn’t want to add keystones and patch cords.

But I’m little concerned about the bend/kink due to design of AP just radius is pretty sharp

Is that safe with PoE ?

I enlarged hole for cable a little but that didn’t help much.

Feedback would be appreciated.

On another note, I would like to fill hole around the drop with silicone or caulk so there is no air penetration, any concerns with that ? Potential damage to wire, or maybe I will just use 3M fire stopping caulk ?

Or maybe there are some kinda grommets for this ?
