I am having some alterations done and need to reroute and shorten the external VM cables for the TV and broadband. I have purchased a new VM external termination box, RG6 snap n seal F type connector and crimp tool from Ebay so I am all set to go. My question is, can I cut through the external VM cable to shorten it or will this cause my service to cut off rendering my efforts useless once I fit the new F type connector and connect everything back up? Or, will everything just start working again once it is reterminated?
