It worked and saved me a lot of waiting time.

I was gone for a few days and when I came back I found the splitter was broken and there was nothing to see on the TV. It was inexpensive and saved me from calling directv and potentially waiting many more days with no tv service.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Genuine DirecTV product with end caps.

These were ordered for my directv seutp. Small but durable and original DirecTV brand item. Great product and great price. Many reviews said they didn't receive a DirecTV tagged item and didn't have plugs, which I did. These were original and with a lid. Works great, well packaged and fast delivery. Fixed problems finding satellites.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • I won't tell

My problems were solved: Accessories and consumables

I was constantly having problems with the signal output in my bedroom. No matter how many times I tried to update the service/restart my box, it still didn't work. I decided to look into the attic and saw a splinter that looked old. I didn't want to wait for DirecTV to come to the service center, so I ordered a new splitter from Amazon. It worked great and I had no problems after the exchange! I guess these splinters will degrade over time, I'm glad Revain picked up this product.

Pros
  • DIRECTV approved for Multi-Room Viewing (MRV)
Cons
  • Good, but not great

a split is expected, but there is no signal on the second line.

Doesn't work. Assuming this is to split the DirectTV signal, I used it to connect a cable (power signal) to 2 to connect to my HD DVR. No signal. in the second dead line. So I'm still left with only one signal line in the DVR with no way to record another channel that's being watched. Everything was fine, but one of the cables coming from the antenna has stopped working and is quite difficult to replace (it's a condo, fully connected, and there's fiber optic in the same tube, so there's a…

Pros
  • Save when you buy 2 packs!
Cons
  • Not the best

Not used for DirecTV

I bought this splitter to connect the DirecTV service to two TVs but it is not possible. I'm guessing DirecTV follows this practice, or maybe the signals are just too big these days, but when I tried splitting the cable to TV #1 and getting a second TV, it didn't work. The picture appears and disappears, some channels are fine, some don't appear at all, and if you change the channel on TV #1, the picture on TV #2 may disappear completely ("No Service"). These days I'm not sure if such a…

Pros
  • 500mA DC from one connector only
Cons
  • Some minor things
