Description of 🔌 RF Broadband Amplifier with 15dB Gain, Single Output for Cable TV, 5-1002Mhz, includes Power Adapter

The micro-housing allows all output ports of the amplifier to be facing down to simplify coaxial cable wiring in NID enclosures or small spaces. Patented auto-seizing F-port features a “Cam Activated Mechanism” to provide full contact pressure (>2,000 grams) on the center conductor for maximum reliability. True 5-42 MHz return band and full 1 GHz downstream spectrum for more useable bandwidth. Unique surge protection on all ports without the use of arc gaps which may cause high impulse noise during discharge. Self-resetting circuit protection provides safe protection against short-circuits to minimize maintenance costs.

Does what it's supposed to do

I had problems with signal attenuation on my home router. The cable guy recommended I buy one of these while I was waiting a few months for a new router from my ISP due to corporate infrastructure changes. As advertised, this device boosted the signal and the service was back to normal and stable. It's well built and I'm sure it will work for many years without any problems. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is the need to connect the included power supply to the unit with a coaxial cable…

Pros
  • Very good quality
Cons
  • Clarity

Works great so far!

This little 15dB gain amplifier is pretty good for amplifying an OTA TV signal. I have an old TV antenna in the attic above my garage and I wanted to boost the signal from it. At times I received 4 to 17 channels (depending on cloudiness and weather). Now I get these stronger signal channels - all 17 channels plus 3 more for a total of 20. However this amplifier should be installed as close as possible to the antenna output (very short cable). Any long cables or splitters in front of it are…

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Built like a warship

I am using an amplifier mounted on a mast between the glass antenna and the SDR RSP-2. usually installed outdoors. Didn't pay attention to the size before buying. Less than I expected based on previous purchases of similar items. Based on a fairly cursory test the amp actually delivers the advertised 15dB, although I only rated it on VHF/UHF as I use a separate antenna. for LF/MF/HF. Was surprised that it came with a power adapter - a real bonus as I figured I'd either have to buy it separately

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • High price

Works very well: Satellite TV

This amplifier is very easy to install and works very well. My cable company's signal strength has been too weak since last summer, resulting in very common broken pictures, no sound, and "no signal" error messages, especially during prime time. Despite numerous discussions with the cable company and frequent resets of my cable box, there was no improvement. The cable company stubbornly refused to admit the problem was on their side. After installing this amp my reception was perfectly normal…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled

The best 15dB amp I've found. Compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and MoCA.

This is an excellent amplifier with 15dB overall gain. Time Warner gave me one of these a few years ago (it was already in use then). Either the power supply or the amp died recently so I bought another so I don't have to wait for Time Warner and all the hassle they bring. My cable modem can never reach full bandwidth without an amplifier. I need a 15dB amplifier because of the required output splitters. It's DOCSIS 3.0 compliant, so it's also ready for new high-speed technologies as they come…

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Obsolete

Great value - works as expected

I had a much more expensive power supply in my basement but it was for active feedback cable TV. Not suitable for antenna applications as feedback is actually transmitted through the antenna and can cause RF interference in the area. I needed a small but powerful amplifier in the attic next to the antenna and this was just what I needed. The amp works as advertised. You get about 12 dB. With the supplied adapter you can supply the power supply remotely or connect the device directly. The…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires outlet
