Expert Reply:
Yes, both the 7-way and the flat 4-pole sockets on the Hopkins # HM40975 Trailer Connector are active when this unit is plugged in to the round U.S. Car Connector on your Silverado Classic. You may want to check your Silverado owner's manual for any guidance as to its wiring capacity to avoid any potential for overloading. This will depend on the combined current demand of your trailer and camper lighting.
