Antenna Adaptor (50 Ohm)

When should you use a 50 ohm antenna connector adapter and plug?

Adapters and connectors may be needed in a number of situations. For example, if you want to connect a satellite receiver to your television. In many cases this can be done with an antenna connector adapter. But you'll also need these small but important adapters and connectors if you want to extend a short cable or if you want to convert your TV socket into a socket to connect a second device. But it is also possible, if you don't have enough space, to turn a straight antenna socket into a 90-degree version. This means you don't have to break the cable, which would lead to signal loss.

Antenna connector adapters and connectors provide an easy way to change different standards

Different connectors and sockets require different types of adapters. Nowadays, there is an almost unlimited choice of antenna connector adapters available to solve any problem-free connection. It is often the case that there is one type of connector on the antenna cable but a different type of socket on the device.

Often the conversion would be difficult or impossible, so an adapter is needed to overcome this problem. In fact, this type of adapter or connector sometimes has special functions, for example when the adapter or connector has a socket at both ends. But there are also adapters that allow you to connect an F-type plug to a BNC socket.

Why is it important to choose high quality 50 ohm antenna connectors and extenders?

Because one of the most important features when it comes to coaxial cables is the attenuation of the antenna cables. This expresses how many times the signal power is reduced after passing through an antenna cable of a given length. This is usually given by manufacturers in dB/m or dB/100 m. Therefore, it makes a big difference which connectors are used. In the DND Telecom webshop you can therefore choose only and exclusively from high quality connectors.
