Its the wrong wall plate then.


There's no way a wallplate can align the cable entry so the cable
doesn't have to bend.

The minimum radius on coax is quite large.


CT100 semi-airspaced is about 70mm. Foam is a bit less.

If its TV it matters less than for sat.


How come, since cable losses are greater at higher frequencies, meaning
that signals reflected due to poor VSWR are absorbed more rapidly?

the frequency from the LNB is higher than Digital TV IIRC.

Use a deep box with F type both sides if its through the wall and line
up the hole in the wall?
