{"product_id":"qbp578851","title":"Vimar Eikon TV-RD-SAT Coaxial Socket Outlet, 5-2400 MHz, Male Connector","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vimar Eikon is a coaxial TV-RD-SAT socket outlet for bringing TV, radio, and satellite signals to a cabin TV, stereo, or receiver across the 5-2400 MHz band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt snaps into an Eikon modular mounting plate and uses a male coax connector on the front, with no cover supplied. Single-connection versions are end sockets with 1 dB connection attenuation and they can pass d.c. current and control signals up to 24 V 500 mA max. Through-line versions are loop-through sockets with 10 dB connection attenuation and they are not suitable for remote power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTV-RD-SAT coax outlet rated for 5-2400 MHz distribution (terrestrial TV, radio, and satellite IF ranges)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo wiring styles available: end socket (single connection) or loop-through (through-line) for daisy-chained coax runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle connection: suitable for remote power supply, with d.c. and control signal pass-through up to 24 V 500 mA max\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrough-line: specified through loss of 2.20 dB at 860 MHz and 3.40 dB at 2150 MHz, with tap loss of 10.60 dB at 860 MHz and 9.90 dB at 2150 MHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnap mounting (engagement) fastening for quick fit into the mounting support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic mechanism with no cover, intended to pair with the matching Eikon frame and cover plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish options include Grey (RAL 7024 similar), White (RAL 9016 similar), and Silver (RAL 9022 similar). The finish changes the visible color once installed in an Eikon plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutlet style varies between Single connection and Through-line. Single connection is an end socket and it supports remote power feed with d.c. and control signal pass-through up to 24 V 500 mA max. Through-line is a loop-through socket for continuing the coax run to the next outlet, with defined through and tap losses and no remote power supply capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an insert for Vimar Eikon wiring devices. Plan for the matching Eikon frame and the TV-RD-SAT cover plate, since the socket mechanism is supplied without a cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a boat, it belongs in a protected interior location such as the saloon, cabins, or nav station. It is not a sealed bulkhead connector, so it should stay out of areas that see direct spray or regular washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoute the coax with gentle bends and leave enough slack so vibration and hull movement do not load the connector. For through-line installs, identify the incoming feed and the continuation cable before closing the panel so the signal path stays correct across the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere a masthead amplifier, active splitter, or control voltage needs to pass through the outlet, confirm the system remains within the 24 V 500 mA max limit supported by the single-connection versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis outlet is a good match for boats running a shared TV antenna, marina cable feed, or satellite receiver to multiple locations. It also suits refits where the interior already uses Vimar Eikon plates and you want the TV, radio, and satellite points to match the rest of the switchgear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Silver \/ Single Connection","offer_id":52371104694453,"sku":"QBP578851-V1","price":25.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grey \/ Single Connection","offer_id":52371104727221,"sku":"QBP578851-V2","price":24.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Single Connection","offer_id":52371104759989,"sku":"QBP578851-V3","price":23.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grey \/ Through-Line","offer_id":52371104792757,"sku":"QBP578851-V4","price":31.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Through-Line","offer_id":52371104825525,"sku":"QBP578851-V5","price":31.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver \/ Through-Line","offer_id":52371104858293,"sku":"QBP578851-V6","price":34.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1319337_qbp578851.jpg?v=1774059767","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp578851","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
