FAQs

Is this outlet suitable for satellite TV (Sky/Freesat)?

No, this is an isolated coaxial outlet designed for terrestrial TV and FM/DAB aerials. It is not compatible with satellite LNB connections.

Can I connect two TVs to this single outlet?

This is a single isolated outlet. To connect multiple devices, you will need to use an external coaxial splitter connected to your aerial feed *before* it reaches this point, or use a different type of outlet designed for multiple outputs.

What type of coaxial cable should I use?

It is compatible with standard coaxial cables such as RG6 or CT100, commonly used for TV aerials.

How do I clean the outlet?

Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials.

Is the installation difficult?

The outlet is designed for straightforward installation with captive screws and clear markings, making it relatively simple for those with basic DIY or electrical knowledge. Always ensure power is disconnected before working.

What does 'isolated socket' mean?

An isolated socket means it is designed to provide a single, clean termination point for one coaxial cable, minimizing signal interference or leakage compared to un-isolated or multi-way connectors.

Troubleshooting

No signal or poor signal quality

Check that the coaxial cable is securely connected to both the outlet and the aerial. Ensure the aerial is correctly oriented and has a clear line of sight. Verify that the outlet is the correct type for your signal source (TV/FM/DAB only).

Outlet feels loose on the wall

Ensure the mounting screws securing the outlet plate to the wall box are tightened appropriately. Check that the wall box itself is securely installed.

Difficulty connecting cable

Ensure the coaxial cable is prepared correctly, with the outer sheath, braid, and inner conductor properly stripped. The captive screws should be backed out sufficiently to allow the connector or wire to be inserted easily.
