8-Way Vertical F Port 1 GHz Cable TV Drop Splitter
Engineered with reliability and functionality in mind Evolution’s digital splitters deliver superb RF performance for today’s evolving cable networks. With quality as our primary objective, 100% of our splitters are QC tested at the factory prior to being shipped. Our UL Listed splitters are specially designed with raised bodies to provide more room for the installation of connectors and to allow moisture to pass behind the splitter instead of trapping moisture on the back plate. The unique manufacturing process used to make our digital splitters eliminates parting lines on the splitters ports, which are a source of moisture migration. Patented, enhanced conical seizure mechanisms are used in all splitters to maximize contact surface and center conductor retention. The zinc die cast housings and back plates are plated using a proprietary multilayer nickel plating process that offers excellent corrosion protection. All back plates are soldered to ensure a hermetical seal and RFI isolation. .

This is one of those splitters you would find or use inside of those steel lock-boxes on the side of an Apartment complex, or the little gray box on the side of your Home or Office that the Cable TV company installed. It features Vertical Port "F" Connections. Its typically used inside of these little boxes because it's easier to connect/disconnect the cables when all the "F" connection Ports are facing in the same direction. So when you are mounting a 8-way splitter in a tight space without a lot of room around it for the RG-6 Coaxial Cable to make connection, this is the one you want! It will pass Forward and Return signals; making it perfect for Splitting Cable TV with High-Speed Internet Connection Signals. The Voltage Protection also makes it suitable for splitting HD TV Antenna Signals as well. The Flat "F" Connector ends means that the connection to the RG coaxial cable you use (RG-6 or RG-11) is solid, secure and doesn't slip or back off after tightened with appropriate force (most Coaxial Cable Manufacturers specify in inch/pounds).
8-Way Splitters are typically the Part you would use to take One (1) cable Feed and "Split" it into Eight (8) in order to Provide Signal to 8 Independant Devices, or a Total of Eight Cables to Feed Multiple Subscriber Units. If Your Distribution Run Passes Distance in Between each Feed Outlet on the Run, Maybe You need to consider Dividing the Split Locations along the Run with Multiple Split Devices or Upgrade to an Out-side Plant (OSP) Architecture. Please be Sure to Select the Appropriate Splitter not just By Manufacturer and Price. But Rather, Consider the Specifics of Bandwidth, Packaging (Indoor vs. Outdoor), Loss, Powering Requirements Up/Down-Stream and the Overall Needs of the Final System You Wish to Create...
If you are adding a splitter to an existing Cable TV or Antenna feed, you may need to compensate for the loss that you are about to introduce. The gain of a Line Amplifier should be selected to zero out the loss that follows it. In other words, if you have fifty feet of cable and a two-way splitter, then a 10 db amplifier will be fine. Conversely, if you have an eight-way splitter and hundreds of feet of cable, you will need an amplifier with a higher gain. Just as in the case of a Pre-Amplifier, however, bigger is not always better.
Commensurate with Coaxial Cable TV Antenna Splitter Installation, you want to Ground your Cable TV or HDTV Antenna Coaxial Cable System Outside before bringing the TV Cable Inside. This way, Lightning Strikes and Power Surges have an opportunity to arrest before reaching your TV and Entertainment Electronics. The Integral Grounding Block designed onto every Outdoor Use Compatible RF Signal Splitter we sell will effectively convey this unwanted Electrical Energy to a Ground Rod via a Copper Ground Wire that you Install (not included). Consult your Local Building Code and NEC for guidance to Properly Grounding your HD TV Antenna, Cable TV, WI-FI, Wireless Internet, Business Band, CB or Amateur Radio Antenna Installation.
