Is it possible to get a 45 degree f-type connector?
I've looked about online but can't get any - only 90 degree connectors.
Thanks.

Yes use ordinary f connector on cable and a 90 degree one.

Sorry only see you wanted 45 degree as never seen them.
I've never seen any. The 90 degree ones are not that great quality. The 90 degree connection tends to be a mechanical push fit - two bits of metal pushed together rather than a continuous bit of metal or soldered connection as the centre connection. I've had a couple fall apart - but can be re-assembled by forcing one part back into the other with a pair of large water pliers.
Ideally use wf100 type cable for satellite or terrestrial digital TV but if you have problems connecting fly leads to the back of your box and wf100 (or equivalent) is too stiff perhaps use wf65 cable (which has 100% screening) with the appropriate (internally) smaller F plug. This is more flexible and possibly allows a smaller radius bend.
Ideally wf65 with a 100% copper screen but you may find that 99% of suppliers (Ebay etc.) will have a aluminium screen which will be adequate for short length.

Many Ebays sellers with a cable and f plug combination. Note: WF65 comes as a shotgun cable (two cables connected together) but is easily split to give individual cables.Code:https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Twist-On-Twin-Shotgun-F-Plug-Connector-For-WF65-CT63-Twin-Shotgun-Coax-Cable/391500943473?hash=item5b27465071:g:JkoAAOSwIVpdejFr

What I'm trying to do is to tidy up cabling that feeds into a multi switch. It comes in at a right angle to the switch.
I can't see how to tidy it up otherwise.
