Can't believe when I search Srarlink on this forum that there are no posts on Starlink. I own a 2021 Phoenix Cruiser 2552. So the question I have is, how do you best run the Starlink Cable to the outside of the rig. I do not want to throw it out the window or a door. I am looking for a more permanent way so that I can use the Starlink while rolling down the road.

Depends on where your receiver is. I have a 2551 and run the cables (2 of them) for my satellite receiver (Dish TV) into the top of the cabinet on the passenger side front. The system comes with a plate that has 2 covered slots for the wires and is about 4" in diameter. That keeps the wires flat and covers the hole in the roof. I used Dicor Lap Sealant and zero leaks.
In the back, I ran another cable thru the roof into the wardrobe closet in the bathroom. That cable goes to my cell booster antenna. The booster came with a similar small cover that also got covered with Dicor. Zero leaks in 8 years. I used the self leveling Dicor rather than the stiff caulk type of Dicor
