Cambium has a kit that seemed at first a little intimidating at first but now we use them all the time with no water intrusion.
Here is that part number
N000082L173

It looks like a little braided loop strap but it gets strapped to the half inch exposed armor and sealed with butel and fat tape.
looks good when done right.

To answer one part... yes you can put grounding kits mid-span on the cable. Had to do that a few times.  I think we used the standard LMR-400 kits.

Does anyone sell custom length, per-terminated BBDGE cable?  I have an application where I need the copper cladding tied to the shielded RJ45.

Also, has anyone used grounding kits on the cable for mid-span grounding?  Will Coax cable kits work on it?

It's been years since I've worked with that cable, I think back when it had to be punched into the PTP400 LPU Units.  I remember it being a pain to field terminate.

One of our tower sites just put up antennas at 6.9, 9.2 and 14.7mhz and it's causing all kinds of Ethernet problems for our cables that pass through their array.  They want to run at 5-6kw, and we start having problems when they go over 2kw.  They are hoping that if we change to the BBDGE cable with lots of Grounding, it will fix the problems.  Already have Coils at the top and bottom on Beldon7919 cable.  That got us from 400w failure to 2kw failure.
