To solve the cabling problems in our Cyclone I just ran all new cable and new compression fittings.
Although the cable that was in our trailer was a pretty good quality cable (Belden), the connections were the pits. The bedroom cable for the SAT connection was never run from the factory.

Since I had to go through the trouble of making that run I just replaced everything with a higher end cable.

It's not uncommon to be hooked up differently that labeled. To operate my living room TV by the Tailgater, I hook up to the connector labeled for the truncated bedroom cable coiled up in the roof.

Ok in the UDC on my 2017 4113 the 1st connection is a home run to the bedroom but was not connected behind the UDC 2nd connection is a home run to living room but was not connected behind the wall in living room (its the 3rd on down closest to floor). The 2 far right go to roof. The outside TV and the Garage tv i have no ideal but were not planning on using those for sat any way. Hope this helps future installers but odds are yours will be different so i would just pull all the panels 1st see what they are then start hooking up it will be a lot easier in the long run.
