I used a couple of four-pin trailer connectors for my quick disconnect. I think I got a couple of four-pin trailer extension cables, cut them in half. 

The rotator cables goes to a small NEMA box mounted on the tower, and then the trailer connectors join and come out from there. The other connectors attach to the bottom of the rotator. 

Went to all that trouble, and I haven’t had to remove my rotator in over 15 years.
