Should be ok, but one small problem, that’s an F plug and the cable supplied with the hub that contains an isolator also has an F plug on it. You will need an F female to female connector, you can get them from Amazon or B & Q. Alternatively you could call the pre-installs team on 0800 052 1734 8AM- 9PM Monday - Friday or 8AM-6PM Saturday and Sunday for a technician’s visit, but this could be many days away.

There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary and those who don't and F people out of 10 who do not understand hexadecimal c1a2a285948293859940d9a49385a2

This is the F connector as mentioned by @Tudor   Very simple to fit and connect.
