Thanks mucho E.
I wrote the question to quickly and think I misrepresented what I'm trying to do.
Currently, I have an incoming feed from the cable co going into the junction box. Let me call the incoming cable, Wire A.
Wire A currently feeds data and basic cable.
There are 8 wires connected to 8 different ports in the junction box going to different areas in the house. One of those wires goes to my cable modem (I'll call it Wire D).
When I install a rooftop antenna, hopefully in a few months, it will have a coax cable coming out of it (I'll call this Wire O).
What I want to do, is drop basic cable and keep data active.
If I directly couple Wire A (incoming data) to Wire D (cable modem) and bypass the junction box for that connection, that will leave the junction box available to receive my antenna cable (Wire O) to feed the remainder of the house.
My question is, will this work?
Thanks again,
--JT
