Description
Boost and branch your TV signals like a pro without the hassle—meet the Kingray KAT8F 8-Way Active Tap, your all-in-one solution for sharing crystal-clear free-to-air (FTA) and satellite TV across up to eight rooms or devices. Designed for easy Multistacker setups (think stacking signals like building blocks for a whole-home network), this active tap amplifies and fine-tunes terrestrial (47-862 MHz) and satellite (950-2400 MHz) feeds with adjustable gain and equalization controls, so every channel—from local news to premium Foxtel—arrives sharp and strong, without fuzzy pictures or weak spots. Whether you're powering a family entertainment system, apartment block, or hotel TV grid, its high-output design (up to 96dB for FTA, 97dB for satellite) handles heavy loads like a champ, while the 20dB test point lets you check signals on the fly.
Foxtel-approved (#F31011) for peace-of-mind compliance, it connects via reliable F-Type ports and powers up locally (12V/18V DC) or remotely with a simple injector and supply (like PSK18M)—no more tangled power cords or signal drop-offs. Compact and wall-mount ready (screws included), it's a breeze for DIYers or pros: just plug in, tweak the dials for perfect balance, and enjoy lag-free HD/4K viewing everywhere. With low return loss (>12dB) to cut noise and a max 2A power pass-through, it's built tough for everyday reliability. Simple setup, big results—Kingray makes whole-home TV feel effortless and epic!
Key Features:
- Dual-Band Signal Magic: Covers 47-862 MHz for everyday FTA TV and 950-2400 MHz for satellite—boosts weak signals up to 10-14dB (FTA) or 14dB (satellite) so far-away rooms get the same great picture.
- 8-Way Smart Splitting: One input feeds eight outputs with adjustable gain (14dB control for both bands) and fixed/equalization tweaks (4dB FTA, 11dB satellite)—like a volume knob for your whole network, preventing overloads.
