If there are cables connected to CH0 and CH1, why would you need to cover it?
If there ar NO cables connected, I don't think it really matters if they are covered. Just make sure that the radio is disabled and clean the connectors when you are going to use them again.
It is connected to the antenna by SMA cables and it is running and broadcasting ..
the question is .. does mikrotik recommend that it should it be covered ??
Not required, but of course, you can improve the connection if you want, there are many ways to do it.
Cover can be used if you have flexible cables. If you directly mount the antenna on there, there is no choice, that is why there are rubber rings below the connectors.
