Question TV cable connection

Adjacent to my antenna booster is an additional receptacle with a "U" jumper cable. This is FR installed in my 2014 Solera. Any ideas to what it does?

Forest River, maybe others, has so many configurations of their coax installations and never furnish any documentation that illustrates the routing within a unit. I believe your jumpered install has something to do with satellite pre wire hook up. Someone will chime in with the specifics.

It has something to do with satellite TV. bclemens (awesome factory rep) talked about it here:
