Hello guys!!

There are things called "Scotchlok" that do the same thing.

Just so you know, those taps are ok for power, but tend to be bad for signal connections. They corrode over time and often make a bad connection to begin with.

That said, they sure are easy to install.

If you are so equipped, you would be much better off cutting the line and soldering in a splitter.
