[hpsdr] USB Through a Panel

Does anyone have any ideas for taking USB through an RF-tight panel?  
The standard USB connectors, type A and B, are pretty big and bulky, and 
don't lend themselves to being mounted in a bulkhead, especially if the 
requirement is to ground the cable screen at the interface.  Are there 
any more "RF friendly" styles of USB connector that anyone knows about?

Having successfully fired up Mercury and Penny with the new code, I am 
keen to box everything up, but am not sure what to do about the USB.
