I understand that one side is FME (some version of coax smaller than tv wire). Is the other side a regular coax connection (like your tv uses)?

The previous responses to your question are both correct. It would help you know the application you plan to use this connector for.

Hi, the other side is N-type. Typical coax on a TV is F-type which is not the same. This connector is generally for antenna wire - 75 Ohm. You'll find N-type on low loss cable for cell phone antennas etc.

One thing needs mentioning that isn't shared very often. Don't look for an open circuit on the antenna. If you test for a short between center and the threaded shell, it will have a reading that looks like a short. It does not. Just the way the antenna is constructed. Test coax separately.

There is a connection area, look at the back of the Tv. There should be a area where all the connections go on the side, at the bottom of that is where you put the coax, its jutted out and hidden a bit but feel around. Hope this helps

Well you can get a replacement end at Radio Shack and fix it. It's just two wire connections to the coax port.

No. The copper wire is not the ground. This cable does not have a separate ground wire attached (not that its necessary or even useful). A standard coax such as this one has 2 lines, the center copper wire "signal" and the outer shield "ground". The shield serves as the ground line for the signal, but this is not the same ground you need if you are talking about antenna installation. Antenna's need a separate heavy gauge short straight run to an actual ground (lightning protection). In my opinion, coax wires with the extra ground attached to the side are useless.

Bob: Check with your cable or sat box company. Generally not good for boxes (electronics below 40*F. TV's same way. I ran tie in to sat feed off one of the coax's. Check on google search for more answers.

Well, I just ordered a coaxil cable two-way splitter (listen to the techie here, lol!) The guy at Best Buy told me to somehow get the antenna hooked into the recorder/player AND the tv. He said we didn't need that channel 3. Wish me luck. I just may have something. I'll let you know! - Linda

I didn't have any problems with it. I used a FireStik and pre-terminated coax. Worked great.

Nope. This is for networking cables only. Ethernet and old school T ring style network cables. Coax (like for your TV) will not fit.

It's connected in line between the antenna and the TV. Coax cable from antenna to amplifier; coax cable from amplifier to the TV. They say to put ithe amplifier as close to the antenna as possible but I have mine in my basement for convenience, works fine.

Cable connector is only on the main unit, you use the terminating plug to test, the smaller unit is not needed to test coax

Standard coax connected antenna. Stronger is better because you will likely get more channels. The simple.tv HW is junky hardware though IMO.

Mine came with a 12' Mini-coaxial cable, with male "F" connectors on each end. However, I didn't buy mine from Amazon, but a national home improvement chain. I notice that some suppliers (including the Channel Master site) claim that the cable is not included, while Amazon is rather vague about any hardware and accessories included in their package. So, (1) someone else, who actually bought it from Amazon should give you a better answer, and (B) You need to be careful in comparing prices unless you know exactly what is included, or you already have enough coax on hand.

My house is wired in coax and i broke the coax connection on the back of one of my TV's. But it also has a hdmi connection as well and have been trying to convert from coax to hdmi . I have been told there currently is no solution.

Actually it's a 1/8" no coax. look at the picture in Amazon ... of the back of the unit

Coaxial protection is not directional, you can use either F-connector for input or output.

i think it was shorter than that. However, you can use an adaptor and connect to a longer coax cable. pts
