![]() ![]() ![]() This model has 4 x ports of amplification (10db each). If you have more than 50ft of RG6 coax cable (or 25ft or more of RG59 cable) or feeding your antenna to more than one TV, your install may benefit from a signal amplifier. Splitters are best installed on the "TV Side" (the output connector on the amplifier), if the splitters cannot be moved to the "TV Side" of the amplifier then a quality Outdoor Signal Amplifier should be used instea for a good result. High loss components namely refers to splitters. *Note that coaxial/antenna grounding blocks or lighting arrestor (devices that add some lightning protection) are low loss components, so these won't effect the performance when installed between the antenna and signal amplifier or the power inserter (if an outdoor signal amplifier), coaxial lightning arrestors along with proper grounding are recommended for some lightning protection and these should be installed per their manufacturer's instructions/NEC guidelines. *IMPORTANT TIP - Indoor Signal Boosters / Amplifiers can work nearly as well as outdoor amplifiers only if the loss between the amplifier to the antenna is low, (up to 50ft of low loss RG6 cable length and without the splitters between the signal amplifier and antenna side (coaxial lightning / surge arrestors or grounding blocks are perfectly fine and recommended along with grounding for some lightning protection).Īll splitters, high loss components (note: coaxial lightning arrestors or coaxial grouning blocks are low loss components so won't cause issue) and/or additional RG6 coax cable length (beyond 50ft) should be installed on the "TV Side" (the output connector on the amplifier), otherwise a quality Outdoor Signal Amplifier should be used for a good result. ![]()
