COAX OUTLET INSTALLATION - HOW TO

On this episode of The Ultimate Tech Hub, we will show you how to terminate a coax cable and install it into a new coax wall plate. We will go over the parts and tools needed. We will show each step in detail so you can fully understand the process. The process of terminating a Coax cable is very easy as long as you have the correct tools. I have a link down below to the coax cable hip kit. This kit is all you need to get the job done. Thank you for being a part of The Ultimate Tech Hub Team and if you haven't Subscribed yet please do.

Crimper..it's a crimper lol.thanks for the video! Dealing with sold old half-funtioning outlets and coaxial headache and this helped.

[@jeevespreston]

Also, once the jack is mounted, consider adding a 90 degree angle connector to help keep the cable more flush to the wall. Minimize future repairs...

[@WHU448]

This video gets straight to the point! (👌🏽)

[@diedie111590]

The braided shield should NOT be cut off. Instead you push it back against the outer PVC jacket, that way its out of the way of the connector. The braided shield helps reduce noise on the line and is important that it is touching the actual connector.

[@TheRealPinkProdigy]

Yes!!!!! Because if you cut it off it’s not going to send the power.

I called spectrum about my self installation kit and this lady told me I needed to have a cord hanging from out the wall. I don't have that so I was so disappointed but after watching this I realize I do have everything I need to set up my internet. I have multiples of those wall things!!

[@UltimateTechHub]

Well glad you figured it out. The cable company can install a coax to pretty much any room you want. This video is just how to take a raw coax cable and make it an coax outlet. Maybe I will make a video on how to run a coax cable to a room. Thanks for watching and keep me posted.

[@anthony-dc6qu]

Where is the white cable if the house are already built

[@AdRxElite]

Instead of removing the shielding from the cable by hand, you can simply use the connector you intend to use to do so. Just push and twist the connector from the threaded end until the shielding recesses. It'll save you a ton of pin pricks and it's pretty quick.

How did you get it in the wall and what is it connected to? I’m so confused. If someone already has it installed at the point where you begin then wouldn’t there already be a cover on it?

[@webbo1021]

You go in the attic, fish it down the wall, cut a whole in the drywall, put in a blue outlet wiring box, run the wiring through the box and run the other end of the wire allllll the way across your attic to wherever your ISP installed they’re splitter, then connect your new coax cable to the splitter. Easy, right?

[@UltimateTechHub]

Yes for sure. If its a house then you can run a coax cable from the location where your cable comes into the house. Its usually in box on the side of your house. The cable company can do it for 25 dollars. Or you can buy a coax splitter and attach it to the coax in your parents room run one cable to your parents TV and the other to your room. Hope this helps.

Another question, can we use an existing outlet to turn it into the coax cable??

[@davidkorbel659]

Do not remove the braided shield !!!!!!! It should be neatly pulled back onto the plastic outer jacket. If you have had trouble with putting the connector on, it's because you either 1) have an incorrect connector for the diameter of the dielectric or 2) have not properly folded over tge braided shield. It needs to be folded over at a straight angle.

[@undeadones123]

I have a cord running through the wall it’s the coaxial screw on cord However it was used for Television instead of internet, would replacing it with a plate allow me to use it for my modem? Or should the cord still be able to connect to my modem regardless? I haven’t been able to get mine set up

[@UltimateTechHub]

You can use it for a coax cable modem. Plug in the modem and have your ISP send a signal to the modem.

[@mgi1k]

Wheres does the cable go an antenna. Im ordered spectrum but i have to install iti need a coax outlet theres one in my house but its cut outside so where do i plug the coax cable?

I believe you would have to connect the coax cable inside to the coax cable outside. Depending on where the cable is in the house you might run the cable through the attic to the outside. Hope this helps you. Thanks for watching.

@@hustleman8797 you can run the wires along your baseboards. It won't look as clean but if you use cable clips it helps with the ascetic look.

@@UltimateTechHub baseboards?

[@UltimateTechHub]

@@hustleman8797 yes the boards that run along bottom of your walls. You can attach the coax cable with clips and run the cable from wherever your cable company has the cable coming into the house.

Is there a video of how to wire it to the satellite?

[@UltimateTechHub]

I don't currently have one. Maybe in the future. Thanks for watching!

I only wish that you would make an addendum to this video to let people know that you made a mistake in trimming off the braided shielding wires they are not to be cut off they are to connect to the F-Connector by way of the crimp, you must understand that when you do it the way you did it that when you push on the F-connector that you are pushing the braided shielding back into the PVC Jacket and the connector is barely making contact with the shielding or if you push it in and then you crimp the connector you could very well be pulling the connector a little bit to the outside of the Coax therefore totally disconnecting the connector from the braided shielding which will render the connection totally useless because the Braided Shield must be directly connected and crimped to the F-connector to complete the shielding of the cable itself and I know that you know that the Shielding is there for the purpose of shielding from outside interference and to make the electrical ground. Grounds must always be solidly grounded to the connector whenever a ground is needed. More times than not when trouble shooting electrical problems the majority of time is because of a poor ground, fix the ground and you will have fixed the electrical problem. Hope this will help anyone that reads this!

I live in a trailer is this possible? Plus iv had internet before so there's a lot of cables going everywhere like going under and stuff I am lost

[@UltimateTechHub]

It will work for sure. The coax cables go to the same spot outside of your trailer. As long as you have cable service you can plug a TV into it or a cable modem if you have internet service. Its very simple. Keep me posted.

@@UltimateTechHub 😶 I just used the same coax cable Xfinity had installed so I didn't have to do anything else other than hook up the Cable Modem to it
