thanks for the clar4ification, but why aren't they supposed to be in an enclosure? when I worked for knology(I know big mistake) my friend and I put a multiplexer and all the cable connections in a box at the customer's request, I have to say, it looked 100% better. I have never done sat, but did cable installs and never left a job half done. If I ever made less than a 96 on my QC scores, the route supervisor asked me if I was sick that week!
