No that device needs to be connected over coax, you’ll need a splitter if you want the router and X1 device to run off the same coax outlet

Thank you. What is the Coax "Out" port used for off of the cable box? I can't send the cable signal to my router via this coax port?
old analog TV output (CRT) that is SD only.

Here is some additional info and pictures. I appreciate any and all help.
I currently have the live xfinity Coax coming out of the wall into the "In" port on the splitter.
From the splitter:
Silver coax out into the cable box.
Gold Coax Out into my wall port. (Seen in photo 2.)
The wall coax port is a straight line into my office coax line.
I am able to get an internet connection when the wireless router is hooked up directly into the splitter off of the gold out coax. However, when run through the female wall port, there is no internet signal in my office.
I am able to push an "out" signal through a femal wall port or should I by pass this port and have a male coax going directly into where the gold out signal is?
From the white wall port, into my office, is a brand new RG6 Quad line.

swap the two splitter outputs. problem changes or remains the same? if same try separate cable run on floor to the other room. fixes issue? if so, then problem is somewhere between the splitter and the wall barrel to the other side of the wall to next barrel to the other device you called a wireless router but is probably the gateway (sometimes called a modem).

Did you take the wall plate off the wall to see if anything is actually attached behind the wall plate. Eventually replace those garbage store bought cables
