Your power strip does not have that provision.

But this one does:

You can see the two coax connectors at the center of the strip. Using those connectors for your antenna coax might expose it to interference from the other equipment connected to the strip and there might be internal surge protection between the center conductor of the coax and the shield that can degrade the signal.

I'm sure I will have more questions but are you saying I need that power strip you linked instead of the one I am using?
