If you can get enough slack to put RJ45 ends on, I've had one of these
sitting in a customers gutter for 5 years.

An Empty SM case with a coupler in it will work in a pinch too.

A few times I'd used the box from a dead surge suppressor and just
stuffed a coupler inside it.
I wonder if McCown sells the plastic box separately.

I've used those phone-couplers with the sticky silicone grease
before, the job looks like crap, but they don't fail. However this
little tool you have hear looks real nice and clean. How much do
they cost?

My installers have been using telephone butt splices for years and
they are rearing their ugly head in terms of failing over time due
to water and UV damage, Even though they tape the connections okay.
My question is this, if it isn't easy to outright replace the
cable and a splice is faster/easier, is there a better product
that can neatly splice 8 wires without looking like crap? And last
a while?
We aren't too concerned about 1000 base connections from our
antenna. 100 base is fine.
