This RG-6 Extender Kit allows you to run a standard XM home antenna over
RG-6 coax cable.
This kit includes the connectors and adapters to permit the use of standard
RG-6 cable with satellite radio antennas. When used with the included amplifier,
this kit can extend the antenna cable up to 125 additional feet (for a total of
145 feet with a standard antenna with a 20 foot attached cable).
This provides the flexibility to allow an installer to cut RG-6 cable to
custom lengths and/or to use plenum rated RG-6 cable where fire codes require.
Multiple amplifiers (one Model SBA-1 for each 125 foot segment) can be used
to make longer cables.
For Antenna installations involving runs in excess of 375 feet, the use of a
power inserter (PS-1 for XM or PS-1S for Sirius) is recommended to overcome the
DC drop through the cable, thereby providing enough DC voltage to power the
amplifiers and low noise amplifier.
A 3 foot length of small diameter coaxial cable is supplied with an SMB plug
to mate with the radio.
Kit Includes:
- 1 SMB to F adapter
- 1 High-Gain Amplifier
- 1 F to SMB adapter cable
Compatible with both XM Satellite Radio and Sirius Satellite Radio.
