With this being for RF, you definitely want to make sure you have good connections, but it's not rocket science. You could probably easily splice in some F connectors, or if you have a different replacement antenna in mind, a connector to adapt to that antenna. With it being either of these types of cables.
There are some other kits that use LMR, but not with that antenna. The 311230 antenna kit (4G RV OTR) is a 25ft RG6 (75ohm) cable. The 311229 antenna kit (4G Trucker) is a 16ft RG58 (50ohm) cable. 2-way signal splitters will cause a 3db (half the power) loss because you are literally splitting the available power across two paths.ĭepending on which model kit you have, it looks like that cable is either RG-58 or RG-6. You can make your own decision from there.A properly completed straight splice will not cause a 3db loss. If you want some baby steps, go ahead and use the wire, and compare not using the wire with using the wire.
Like who uses cable TV anymore? Is that still a thing? You COULD even get a tube of silicone, and replace the cable TV wire with a Weboost wire just completely permanently. You COULD use the existing wire as a "pull" to pull the correct wire in. Of the +35, you're going to loose about 18bd to go through the connectors and maybe another 6db because you're using the wrong wire. You can improve that by getting high performance connectors, but you didn't get good stuff from the factory.Īll said, you're going to get a gain, about 35db of the advertised 50db.
Each connector has a rating measured in decibels of loss, and I think it's about 6 decibels per connector. Each connector in the Aistream has a rated loss, and there are three (one connector through the exterior skin, one connector is the splitter/hub behind the TV, and the third connector would be at the connector through the interior skin. That said, I think the cable in the Airstream is an RG59 and the Weboost is an RG6. That construction zone is going to mess with the total performance of the highway, despite the highway being mostly a standard highway. Imagine if you have a highway, but there is a construction zone somewhere. The energy is heavily controlled, this gives the actual signal. It took a lot of learning about radio and signal and stuff, and I'm not going to do the science justice.īasically, an antenna is slamming energy into a stick, and having the stick vibrate.
