Hi Larry
Asked my local cable guy the same question. Being a belt and suspenders type
I though I should...
He replied " Wayne I have 1000's of these Blue ended AMP connectors in my
area .. other then being ripped out and @ Frequencies FAR above what you
playing at "
SO my beverage's and receiving 4 sq are just Goof amp F connectors ... YMMV
