I always use a drip loop on any of my lines coming in under the eaves.  I
add one 
thing, it can be put along the line anywhere but one, at least, (I put some
on the line 
in mid span as well) is a drip line.  It is simply a length of cord (about
10cm) tied to 
the line at one end of the cord so that the rest hangs down.  The knot
around the 
line stops the rain from running all the way down the line then the water
runs down 
the cord drip drip.

Just a little bit more protection.

You might want to consider a drip loop where
the coax enters the pipe from the outside.
That's a small loop, (minimum bend radius for
the coax), that lets the coax approach the pipe
from the bottom so that water on the coax is
not too eager to get into the pipe.
