Default Best practice - antenna cable exits at masthead

I'm going to be installing some antenna and electrical cables in a Selden mast soon.

I'm curious what people think is the state of the art / best practice for managing the cable exits from the mast at the head. The cables will be run through the neat dual channel that Selden provides.

I've considered:
Smoothed elongated slots cut into the mast (like a smaller version of a halyard exit)
Rubber grommets in oversized holes
Cable glands threaded into the mast section
Cable gland threaded into the cast head fitting
Type N connector feed-throughs in the mast wall
Thanks in advance
