Some licensed band radios like Bridgewave come with a 3/4" or 1" liquid
tight non metallic conduit fitting on the radio head itself. It's just a
circular hole in the radio body so you can install your own conduit fitting
for another type of fitting or a gland if desired.  I typically use duplex
3.0mm armored (coiled steel) 9/125 G.652.D LC patch cables inside the
liquidtight. This stuff:

Other radios like the Siklu 1200F have their own much smaller rubber gland
and compression fitting, in which case it's way too small to use
liquidtight flex conduit, so you do want a weatherproof armored patch cable
that has its jacket directly exposed to the elements.
