The 2-Way Coaxial TV Splitter is a passive RF distribution device designed to divide a single incoming television signal from an antenna, cable TV wall outlet, or satellite LNB . It allows up to two separate televisions or set-top boxes to receive the signal simultaneously from one source.

Constructed with a metal (zinc alloy) housing and F-type connectors, the splitter provides electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding to maintain signal integrity and prevent external noise from degrading picture quality. A properly shielded splitter helps prevent "ghosting" or pixelation on connected displays.

Key Features

75 Ohm Impedance: Matches standard coaxial cables (RG6, RG59) and TV inputs for maximum power transfer .

1 GHz+ Bandwidth: Supports both analog and digital TV frequencies (including DVB-T2/ISDB-T) and is MoCA-compatible for coax network applications .

Low Insertion Loss: Premium models feature 3.5-4.0 dB loss, preserving signal strength for both outputs.

Port Labeling: Clearly marked "IN" for the source and "OUT" 1-2 for connected devices.

Surge Protection: High-quality models include 6 kV ring wave surge protection to safeguard connected equipment .

Performance Notes

Insertion Loss: Each split reduces signal power. A 2-way splitter typically loses 3.5-4.0 dB . Ensure your incoming signal is strong enough to provide clear reception on both outputs.

Return Loss: High return loss (≥20 dB) indicates good impedance matching, minimizing signal reflections that can cause picture ghosting .

Compatible Applications

Connecting two TVs to a single outdoor antenna.

Splitting a cable TV feed to a television and a cable modem.

MoCA-capable networks for distributing internet over coax .
