The socket accepts standard coaxial plugs (male connectors) and provides a secure push-fit connection for TV aerials, satellite dishes, and radio antenna systems operating on VHF, UHF and FM frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold in bulk for installation projects requiring multiple connection points, the socket suits residential aerial distribution systems, multi-room TV installations, communal aerial systems in apartment blocks, and commercial AV distribution racks. The threaded body allows the socket to be panel-mounted or fitted to junction boxes, providing a fixed connection point where coaxial cable runs terminate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion better than uncoated brass or zinc alloy alternatives, maintaining conductivity over time when exposed to indoor humidity or outdoor weather in protected enclosures. The plating also reduces signal loss at the connector interface compared to lower-grade materials. The precision-machined centre pin ensures consistent contact with the plug, minimising signal reflection and interference in the connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable does this socket accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe socket accepts standard coaxial plugs (male connectors) fitted to coaxial cable such as RG6, CT100, or WF100. The plug fitting must match the socket diameter — this is a standard UK\/EU coaxial socket compatible with most domestic aerial and satellite plugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be used outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion, but the socket is not IP-rated for direct weather exposure. It can be used in outdoor enclosures or junction boxes that protect the connection from rain and moisture ingress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for satellite as well as aerial?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The socket handles the frequency range used by both terrestrial TV aerials (VHF\/UHF) and satellite dishes (950-2150 MHz). It provides a passive connection point and does not filter or attenuate signals within the broadcast spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between bulk and retail packaging?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBulk packaging typically means the sockets are supplied in plain bags or boxes without individual retail packaging, reducing cost per unit for installation projects requiring multiple connectors. The product itself is identical to retail-packaged versions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVSL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313480261899,"sku":"766.086UK","price":1.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/766086UK_LD1_155b6142-adb5-4207-a239-6dbdd6a29091.jpg?v=1715193938","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/av-link-precision-coaxial-socket-nickel-plated-brass-bulk","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
