I bought my trailer hitch connectors for my TailTwister in 2001 from The Wireman. Worked ever since with no troubles.

Recently replace my T2X with an Alpha Spid and put utility trailer
connectors on each end of the cables.  When I hooked it all up, no
rotation!  Checked and rechecked everything and come to find out, the
utility trailers were BOTH bad!  They were a Chinese brand sold by NAPA.
Wired everything up without the connectors and it all worked as it was
supposed to!  If you do decide to go this route, be sure to check and
recheck those connectors BEFORE installing them. It's a lot easier to
troubleshoot this type of a problem on the ground rather than 96 feet up
on a tower!  Good luck!

While that sounds like a good idea, I'd like to suggest either a multi-pin Cinch-Jones connector or a connector for a utility trailer. The Pwr-Poles will be hard to keep "straight" as far as 1-1, 2-2, etc. With the others, it's one plug-up. they are polorized, and you're done.
