Yellow marked coax cable

In the bay I was cleaning and checking out all the electronics and found a coax cable that is marked with yellow tape that is bundled up and not hooked up any idea what it would be for. Can't find a yellow marked cable in any of the cabinets.

It most likely goes to the roof part of the satellite prewire

As I recall they run 2 cables. One is used one is a spare. Saves having to fish one thru at a later time.

I have dome dish on the roof would you know where to disconnect the roof dish and tie portable dish in the bay. Sometimes there is a tree in the way for the top dish.

On our 2016 the yellow cable runs from the Trav'ler up on the roof to the common port of the 1x4 splitter in the basement. From the splitter out the red goes to the satellite receiver for the bedroom TV, the blue goes to the receiver for the main TV and the green goes to the exterior TV receiver. Note that these are for the satellite receivers, not the off-air/CATV feeds to the TVs themselves. There are also a couple of other unmarked cables that run down from the roof to the basement. These are unused in my case and are for a Shaw dish and an in-motion dish option.

I converted the single coax wallplate for CATV to a dual coax wallplate so that I could use the second jack for a portable tripod dish. I then added a coaxial A/B switch so that I could easily select which dish I wanted to use. Schematic is attached.

Yellow usually is used for cameras. Maybe for a side camera?
