How to Split a Coaxial Cable (While Minimizing Signal Loss)

There are no such thing as HDMI version 2.0b cables. The version numbers relate to hardware and not the cables. Your existing cables would in all probability have been fine as long as they are rated HIGH SPEED and no longer than 5m in length. Longer length cables can be problematic when conveying higher bandwidth UHD video over them. How long are these cables? Chances are that if your cable run from the source is up to 100 feet in length, and you’re using a splitter with a small number of ports, your receiving device will get the signal just fine. Ensure as well that the impedance of the splitter matches what you’re connecting it to. For example, televisions and the like are 75-ohm devices, so your splitter should be rated for this impedance. Does a Coaxial Cable Splitter Cause Signal Loss?Viewi’s 2, 4, 6 & 8-way cable TV splitter adapter kit will split the signals and send it to two outputs, this allows you to watch your favorite...

If you had a CollectPlus letter with your old kit, just follow the instructions on how to return it. I know you shouldn't be messing about with the virgin media network but I have made absolutely sure I have got the correct cable marked "catv" with proper connectors (cabelcon 4.9). If you’re using a TV antenna, make sure to run a channel scan and note the indicated signal strength of each channel, which may point to the need for an amplifier. Final ThoughtsI am considering moving my V6 boxes to beside the router in the hall as the remotes do not require line of sight to work. It’s a so-called passive device, meaning it doesn’t run on electricity and you don’t need to plug it in (unless it’s actually a distribution amplifier). The splitter outside the house (on the pic above - btw - by old, do you mean the cable connectors? We were only connected up last year, but I guess the original - Nynex probably- fittings are still in use - just the splitter and second cable box coax are new. I'd probably leave that to Virgin if I'm honest, although I have 20 odd F/aeriel connections to make up). I'm a Very Insightful Person, I'm here to share knowledge, I don't work for Virgin Media.
