Electrovision Coaxial Signal Booster with 4G Filter - T103EA
The aerial amplifier by Electrovision is designed to boost the signal received by the aerial for d...The aerial amplifier by Electrovision is designed to boost the signal received by the aerial for distribution to televisions or radios. The booster will work with Digital Terrestrial, DAB and VHF signals. Features coax aerial input, coaxial outputs, key-slot mounting holes, power on LED and mains lead. This 4G filter helps remove interference and channel loss caused by 4G mobile signals. Designed to boost TV reception in poor reception areas, it can also be used with a hifi to increase DAB/Digital Radio Reception. It is free standing and has a power on LED and mains lead. Dimensions: 6.00cm x 17.00cm x 29.50cm. Weight: 0.51kg.
This Electrovision signal booster is for users experiencing poor TV or DAB radio reception, particularly in areas affected by 4G mobile signals. Its key benefit is enhancing signal strength for clearer broadcasts, but it requires a mains power source to operate. It features a 4G filter, multiple coaxial outputs, and an easy-to-see power LED, making it a practical solution for improving digital terrestrial, DAB, and VHF reception.

FAQs
What types of signals does this booster support?
The Electrovision T103EA supports Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT), DAB radio, and VHF signals.
Does this booster require power?
Yes, the booster needs to be connected to a mains power supply via the included mains lead to function.
How does the 4G filter work?
The 4G filter is designed to block or significantly reduce interference frequencies used by 4G mobile signals, which can otherwise disrupt TV and radio reception.
Can I connect this to multiple TVs?
Yes, the booster has multiple coaxial outputs, allowing you to distribute the boosted signal to more than one television or radio receiver.
What are the dimensions of the booster?
The dimensions are approximately 6.00cm (height) x 17.00cm (width) x 29.50cm (depth).
Is this booster suitable for areas with very poor reception?
It is designed to help in poor reception areas by amplifying existing signals, but its effectiveness depends on the baseline signal strength and other environmental factors. It may not be a complete solution in extremely weak signal zones.
How do I know if the booster is working?
The booster has a power-on LED indicator that lights up when the device is receiving power and is operational.
Troubleshooting
No signal or poor reception after installation
Check all coaxial cable connections are secure at both the booster and the receiving devices. Ensure the aerial is correctly positioned and functioning. Verify the booster is powered on (check LED) and try a different power outlet. Rescan for channels on your TV/radio.
Booster not powering on (LED is off)
Confirm the mains lead is securely plugged into both the booster and a working power socket. Try a different power socket to rule out an issue with the original one. If the problem persists, the unit may require servicing.
Interference persists despite the 4G filter
While the 4G filter helps, extremely strong local 4G signals may still cause some degradation. Ensure the booster is positioned away from potential sources of interference if possible. Check that the aerial cable is in good condition and properly shielded.
Signal is worse after connecting the booster
This can occur if the signal is already very strong. In such cases, the booster might be overloading the input. Try connecting directly to the TV/radio to confirm the baseline signal strength. Ensure you are using the correct input/output ports.
