I was on the roof yesterday and saw this small rectangular box to the right of the access port and towards the rear from the TV antenna. Does anyone know what it is?

I'm pretty sure the round white cover is the solar conduit cap.2018 RAM 3500 LB SRW

By the looks of it, that is a Jaboni solar port. If so, it should have two MC4 type connectors for solar panels in there under the removable cover. Not sure on your unit where they ran the cables to, but on mine they ran 10AWG cables to the front storage bay.Ken & Sandra

Yes I think you are correct. I checked the Jaboni website and although the port isn't shown in their product line up it is shown on the roof in a couple of their videos about solar prepped RV's.
Not sure we'll ever install solar but it's nice to know it and the conduit are there.2018 RAM 3500 LB SRW

Bill M I believe the white, round cover on your roof is an attic vent. Our 2600RB has the same thing on it and that is what it is.

I agree with Dave on that being a roof vent The satellite/solar access will be a metal plate with a bunch of roof sealant around it.Curtis, Christine, Cole, and Charlotte

I am going to go with the white cap being an attic vent. My Jaboni solar port actually says Jaboni on it and is located at the front street-side corner of my TT.Mike & Lisa

As confusion sets in please bear with me,
The little black box is for the solar prep , this will have the connections for solar panels inside the box and a wire ran down into the basement somewhere.
The white part is for the satellite chase wiring , it also probably doubles as an attic vent as mentioned ( this is labeled in the picture?).
Right? Wrong? Go back to mowing the grass?

The satellite usually looks something like this. The black piece I've also see as bare metal.
