What a surprise! Yesterday I ordered one in white from Furrion.

Eddie
Eddie part number is LP-20-C02PE-01-001

There is 10 gauge wire coming out back side of Furrion Port and looks like 10 gauge would connect to the solder pins on the 2 pins connector. Keep in mine, they make male and female versions of 2 pins connector. You need the male version for the Furrion port, the part number listed above is the male version.

Furrion Solar Port

I heard back from ETI and they stated they would install the Furrion solar port. Also at no additional cost would install the matching coaxial cable connector.

Does Furrion have a coax port?

Yes:
from Furrion's Cables & Inlets selection, TV/SAT Inlet - Stainless Steel (FTVINS-SS) is a dual-coax inlet. I don't see one matching the solar inlet, but I might just have missed it.

Thanks, I had a quick look but never saw it. It does look much more robust than the little plastic flip lid kind.
