Cable TV questions

I'm trying to figure out where all the TV cables are in my 2015 33aa. There was a roof mount antenna and there is power and two coax cables there. The two coax appear to terminate in the bedroom. There's also an OTA antenna with a corresponding coax in the BR. There is an OTA controller up front on the pass side and a coax on a wall plate. What's up with that? Also many campgrounds offer cable but I cannot find a place to plug in a cable. There was a 50 foot cable coiled up in the bay behind the wet bay, but no place to hook it. I have set up a sattelite system and got it to all 4 TV's, I would like to get set up for cable and OTA.

The two coax cables and the 12v power were probably to a Winegard Roadtrip satellite antenna that's been removed. The controller with the coax connection is the HD360 antenna controller that controls the direction in the "flying saucer" looking OTA antenna. That system was problematic and most changed it out for either an omnidirectional antenna or the Winegard Rayzar Automatic. Your cable TV connection should be in the wet bay. There is normally two coax connections, one for a carryout satellite antenna and one for park cable.

I found the connections in the wet bay. Right in front of my face. The "tripod" terminal has a corresponding coax in the bedroom, however the "cable" terminal does not. Is there a hidden splitter routing the cable connection directly to all the TV's?

In my RED the splitter is in the upper right front cabinet behind a panel that is held in place by four screws. The splitter Tiffin used was a seven way with only four being used and the rest capped off. Get a splitter that has the number of outlets that you need instead of the seven way.
