I have seen no such thing.  I did see one with screw terminals, but it
may have been RS-485.

However, FTDI does sell cables that terminate in bare wires that I would
assume you could easily cripm into an RJ45 jack.

How much would you be willing to pay for such a product anyway ($50?),
and how many other people would pay a similar price?
