FAQs
What is DC pass-through?
DC pass-through allows the splitter to send power from one of its output ports to a pre-amplifier. This power travels up the cable to the amplifier, which amplifies the signal received by the antenna.
Can I use this splitter with a satellite dish?
This splitter is designed for UHF and VHF signals, not satellite signals. It is not compatible with satellite dishes.
What type of connectors does the splitter use?
The splitter uses standard F-type connectors.
Is the splitter suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the splitter has a weatherproof housing designed for outdoor use. However, ensure all connections are properly sealed to prevent moisture ingress.
How do I mount the splitter?
The splitter can be mounted on a wall or mast. Use appropriate screws or fasteners to secure it in place.
What does LTE tuning mean?
LTE tuning means the splitter is designed to filter out interference from 4G/LTE signals, which can interfere with TV signals, improving the quality of the received signal.
What is the frequency range of the splitter?
The splitter is designed for UHF and VHF signals, and it is LTE tuned for channels 21-48.
Troubleshooting
No signal on one or more TVs.
Check all cable connections for secure contact. Ensure the antenna is correctly positioned and pointed towards the broadcast towers. Confirm that your TV is tuned to the correct channels.
Weak signal or picture breakup.
Check cable quality and replace if necessary. Ensure that your antenna is compatible with your television. Consider using a pre-amplifier to boost the signal strength if the signal is weak.
Interference or ghosting.
Verify that the splitter is correctly grounded. Make sure there are no other devices emitting signals near your antenna or cables. Adjust the antenna's direction to improve signal reception.
