TV hookup changes in 2021 WP16BHS

I don't have the Television RCA & HDMI jacks on the outside or in the ceiling of my 2021 Wolf Pup 16BHS Black Label (circled in pic). They eliminating these hookups in these trailers now? Any other 2021 Cherokees out there lose these connections?

I only have coaxial hook up. Not a huge deal, just curious.Click image for larger version

My Wolf Pup 18TO didn't come with HDMI ports next to the TV. The Driven stereo system dashboard by the door has HDMI and USB ports. So I bought a TV with HDMI and DVD and will use a Roku casting stick directly on the TV HDMI port and jump my audio over using the red/white aux cords. Hopefully something like that could work for you?

The RCA jacks never made sense to me.
I installed a second 75ohm cable jack inside and routed the outside connection to that, making the external jack an input vice output. Needed to bypass the antenna amp. Before that, I had no television outside input.
My 2019 TV connections are all on the kitchen cabinet side by the door. And no HDMI connections except on my TV & DVD player.

I purchased my 2021 16BHS from Cheyenne in mid Dec and picked it up last month on Jan 16 in the snow/ice storm and mine has the RCA jacks at both locations but not an HDMI.

I'm still trying to figure out how the HDMI connections are routed back to the main Furrion control unit. I may just end up tracing it all out to see what the intended stock configuration is. At the moment it doesn't seem to function the way I would have guessed.

EDIT: Actually I just found this thread which I think confirms how it SHOULD work but didn't quite function that way with a ROKU stick. Maybe the nearby USB port didn't have enough juice to power that particular item. I'll continue to test with a different HDMI source and see how it goes.

After removing the interior cabinet panel to access the Furion radio, I took pictures with my phone, xferred to iPad for bigger pic, and could better see how the radio hookups were connected.
