Water Damage Prevention:

At the point where your coaxial cable lead enters the house, you should allow for some slack in the coaxial cable as a “drip loop.” This will prevent moisture from running down the coaxial cable and entering the house.

Run the coaxial cable approximately six inches below the wall entry point and then turn it upwards towards this spot. See Fig 16. Any moisture that accumulates on the coaxial cable will drip off in the bend instead of running into the house. You should seal the point where the cable enters your home with a rubber weather insulator or silicone caulking (not included) An “F” connector wall plate can be used inside the home to cover the inside portion of the whole. You can typically find an “F” connector wall plate at any local Electronics or Hardware store.
