No special tools are required for fitting the F-plug, other than a sharp Stanley Knife and a pair of wire cutters. This video shows how to install an 'F Connector' on an RG-6 Coax Cable using minimal tools. This 25mm x 50mm screened satellite F Connector Euro Module often known as a Sky TV socket provides secure connection for appropriate TV and satellite. RG6 has a typical outer diameter of 6.9mm and WF65 twin Shotgun cable is 4.8mm diameter (and as a consequence has the highest signal loss).Įach F-connector is cheap to buy at around 22p each from Amazon UK. An F connector, or F-type connector, is a coaxial connector which is commonly attached to an RG6 or RG59 cable and transfers an electrical signal for. CT125 coax cable has a outside diameter of 7.8mm as opposed to WF100/PF100 which is 6.6mm (the same as CT100). It's worth noting that F-plugs for satellite coaxial cable like RG6, WF65, PF100/WF100/CT100 and CT125 all have different entry dimensions. Incorrect preparation of the cable before fitting the screw-on F type plug can lead to poor electrical connections at the receiver or LNB leading to loss of satellite signal ( no satellite signal), particularly if the coaxial cable centre core is cut too short. To assist with installation we provide a visual guide on how to fit F-type plugs showing how to correctly prepare the coaxial cable for the screw on F-plug. The screw-on F-connectors featured have an inside diameter of 7mm and are designed to fit CT100 or RG6 satellite coaxial cable. The F type connector is an inexpensive connector that provides the required performance for many domestic TV related applications.
