Maybe with the plastic overmoulding stripped off?This can be done but you risk stretching the grommet so much it will no longer seal properly. You would need to find a grommet that fulfills following:1) maximum cable diameter that can fit inside grommet >= maximum USB connector width2) minimum cable diameter that can fit inside grommet <= USB cable diameterAnd there does not exist anything like that. Max specced dia when used in the gland isn't the same as what you can stretch it to when taken out of the gland.

It is definitely the smallest one i ever saw. But its pretty expensive and mainly it needs 5V 3A power supply which could be solved but would be high effort.
