You will need

- - F-connector;
- - I connector;
- - the antenna amplifier;
- - soldering iron;
- - solder;
- - duct tape.
Instruction
1
Look how the antenna cable is connected to your apartment. This can be a cable with solid or stranded wire in the center.
2
Will buy additional television cable of the required length, pre-measured it and adding a couple of meters. Necessarily of the same type as the existing. You can usually find it at any store that sells TV and radio or on the radio.
3
Buy two F - and one I-connector, i.e. two connectors of type "daddy" and one is "female". You can also use one combined connector "father-mother".
4
Prepare both cables. To do this, exactly, trim the edge of the cable, carefully cut about 15-20 mm of the upper insulation layer. Most importantly, do not damage the shield. Also, carefully wrap the braid back, remove foil, which is covered by cable.
5
Bare Central wire, cut it with 10-15 mm of insulation. Try not to break and cut off its careless movement.
6
Type cable F-type connector "dad". Screw it all the way. It lived Central, the cable should he fall into the Central connector and wrapped braid will be clamped between the outer sheath of the cable and the connector housing. The outside diameter of the connector will be a small piece of wire Central core. Cut it with scissors or clippers, leaving approximately 2-3 millimeters.
7
Similarly, connect the second cable. Now connect two F-connector of type "daddy" with I-connector type "mother".
8
Instead of the I-connector you can use a special antenna amplifier. It has inputs to connect F-connectors. This amplifier is required if cable is longer and the signal is lost.
9
If you are using a combined connector, one cable plug to F-connector, and the second a similar manner to the first connector.
10
You can solder together the wires using a soldering iron and solder. Be careful not to snap the wires together.
Useful advice
You can buy special ready antenna extension cable. He has fixed the connectors.
