If you don't mind modifying your trailer you have a simple option for the cable connection. Find a cabinet that is against the outside wall that is close to your TV receiver that you can route a cable to it. Drill a small hole from inside the cabinet through the wall. Make sure it is not through a stud or wiring area. Then use a household exterior cable plate on the outside of the wall and connect the inside cable to it. You can then hook the outside cable to the cable connector on the outside wall. Make sure it's covered by something to keep the weather off of it when not in use. An exterior outlet cover will work fine. I did that for my satellite internet connection and it has worked great for over 4 years.

Doing it this way gives you a cable connection to the front TV separate from the main exterior cable connection and you do not have to run a cable through the entire house.
