Frequently Asked Questions

What is RG6 coaxial cable and why is it used for satellite TV?expand_more
RG6 coaxial cable is a standard type of cable designed for transmitting radio and television signals. Its construction, featuring a central conductor surrounded by insulation, shielding, and an outer jacket, is optimised to minimise signal loss and interference, making it ideal for carrying the high-frequency signals required by satellite receivers, cable modems, and digital TV antennas, ensuring clear picture and sound quality.
How do I connect the Smedz RG6 coax cable extension kit?expand_more
Connecting the Smedz kit is straightforward. The main 5-metre cable comes with one F-connector pre-attached. Simply screw this connector onto your satellite receiver or TV's F-type input. If you need to extend an existing cable, use the included inline F-connector to join the two cables. The kit also provides 10 cable clips to neatly secure the cable run along walls or skirting boards.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use in the UK?expand_more
Yes, the MAST DIGITAL Smedz RG6 cable features a durable PVC sheath that is resistant to weathering and designed for suitability in all installations, both indoor and out. This means it can withstand typical UK environmental conditions, providing a reliable signal connection even when routed externally, though we always recommend protecting direct exposure where possible.
Will this cable work with my specific Virgin Media or Sky HD box?expand_more
Absolutely. The Smedz coax cable is a standardised RG6 7mm cable, specifically designed to fit all F-female devices. This includes the common F-type connectors found on virtually all Sky HD, Freesat receivers, and Virgin Media set-top boxes and broadband modems, ensuring broad compatibility for your home entertainment setup.
What is the main benefit of compression F-connectors over screw-on types?expand_more
Compression F-connectors, like those fitted on this Smedz cable, offer superior reliability and signal integrity compared to traditional screw-on types. The compression mechanism creates a tighter, more permanent seal, significantly reducing the risk of signal leakage, moisture penetration, and physical disconnection. This results in a more stable and consistent performance over the cable's lifespan.
Can I use this cable to extend my broadband internet connection?expand_more
Yes, the Smedz RG6 coaxial cable is suitable for extending broadband internet connections that use an F-type connector, commonly found on cable modems from providers like Virgin Media. Its double screening helps maintain signal quality, which is crucial for stable internet speeds and performance, ensuring you get the most from your broadband service.
