Funnily enough I was faced with just this scenario a while back,

mounted amp and (of course) the best quality / VFM replacement we
could get easily had F Type connectors.

Why doesn't everyone fitting these things put them where you can work
on them easily? ;-(

Probably a combination of wanting to amplify the lowest noise signal,
and that normally favours being close to the aerial, and not wanting to
have to double back loads of drop wires (and so add masses of extra
cable length to the system).

So "above" where you would logically want to start splitting the feeds
off makes sense.
