Very simply put, this redirects the cable coax so it points up or down instead of at a 90 degree angle. Coax cable is so thick and hard it does not bend well so it always looks bad. With this, you can direct the cable down and behind something so your furniture can closer to the wall. Or alternatively, you can direct the coax up the wall to a tv mounted on the wall so it lays more flush against the wall. You still need to secure it or cover it but it comes out neat and tidy.
I bought one a few months ago for the living room so it was less noticeable and my wife recently requested I do it in the bedroom now. Previously the best you could do is to kink the cable which can cause a poor connection as it stresses the fitting on the end. See the difference in my images. It really looks better and it does keep it from getting crushed.
