    while digging for a cable in the old cable bag, found 2 funny little connectors. I think they are for satelitte but hopefully someone can tell me what they are exactly for.

    1 is a 1 f-connector type connection in and 2 out the other end with just 3.5db written on it.

    2nd says 110db emi isolation tap, with 3 f-connector type sockets, in/out and tap. ( 6db 5-1000mhz on the back)

    thanks..

    Although they have f-connectors they sound like they are only suitable for cable.

    Satellite is not suitable for splitting.

    Cable operates between 5-1000mhz, satellite well above that.

    Yea, the first is just a basic F splitter. The 3.5dB is referring to loss incurred by using it.

    The last, as it says, is a line tap. A trunk cable would come IN, and continue through the OUT onwards to next line tap. With 6dB loss through the drop connection.
