Moving Sky box to extension - what connections?

    Hi All, recently finished a house extension and got it wired for Sky while I was at it. The electrician ran the cable all the way to the dish but there are no connections on either end.
    Can I simply buy these connections and fit myself? If so what are they called?
    I am guessing that all I'd have to do is remove the old cable from the dish and the box and fit the new cable.
    Or should I call Sky and pay an engineer to fit these connections?
    All help greatly appreciated.

    These are 'F' connectors Watch the video for instructions if you are competent at DIY. Be careful if working at height to access the dish and take care not to move the dish out of alignment.
