A:Â Hi CanYouHearItNow I just grabbed a pack off the shelf and verified they are OK. Not sure why you are having trouble. The connectors are called F-81 barrels and can be used to splice two pieces of coax together or can be used as bulk head connectors on a piece of equipment. We no longer supply the small nuts used for that though anymore. If you like send me a note and I will call you thanks Ron at ron.kipper@idealindustries.com

Answer This Question
A:Â Hi Doug while we never recommend splicing a coax cable these adapters only add about 1/2 of a dB of signal loss so pretty low. Definitely less than the 4 dB or more a splitter will add to the loss. Good question Ron at ron.kipper@idealindustries.com
by|May 4, 2023
A:Â Virtually none - the splicers, if tightened securely, are almost the same loss as if your two cables were one.

A:Â bhata You can use it outdoors but make sure to buy the compression F connectors that are weatherproof. The barrel buy itself is not weatherproof. Ron at ron.kipper@idealindustries.com

A:Â This connector is not rated (on the package) for outdoor use. According to the cable you are using, and the environment, you may be able to seal it with tape or RTV-type silicone. Use your own judgment.

A:Â Yes, this can be used outdoors.

Perfect
Worked perfectly. Used it to connect the indoor tv antenna to the cable wire to get more length in order to place the antenna higher near the window. Much better reception. Bye bye cable....
