Coaxial Connector Kit: Buy in Nairobi, from Pro-Logic Technologies
The best satellite dish, the highest-quality LNB, and the most capable decoder are only as good as the connections between them. A loose, corroded, or poorly crimped coaxial connector can undo every other investment in your signal chain β introducing resistance, water ingress, and signal loss that degrade or destroy reception. A quality coaxial connector kit gives installers and DIY enthusiasts everything needed to terminate coaxial cables professionally and reliably. Pro-Logic Technologies in Nairobi supplies comprehensive coaxial connector kits for domestic and commercial installation work.
What’s Included in a Coaxial Connector Kit?
A well-stocked coaxial connector kit typically includes a variety of F-type connectors (in compression, crimp, and twist-on varieties), IEC (PAL) connectors for terrestrial TV connections, RCA connectors for composite video and audio, BNC connectors for professional video and CCTV applications, and the tools required to apply them β including a cable stripper, compression tool, and crimping tool.
Types of F-Type Connectors
For satellite and digital TV installations, F-type connectors are the standard. They come in three attachment styles. Twist-on (push-on) connectors require no tools and can be attached by hand β they are quick and convenient but less mechanically secure and more prone to water ingress in outdoor installations. Crimp connectors are applied using a crimping tool, forming a mechanically secure and electrically reliable connection. Compression connectors are applied using a compression tool, which creates the most weatherproof and electrically superior connection of the three types β strongly recommended for all outdoor applications.
Weatherproofing
Any outdoor coaxial connection is vulnerable to water ingress, which causes corrosion and dramatically increases signal loss over time. Quality connector kits include self-amalgamating tape or weatherproof sealant for protecting outdoor connections. This step is non-negotiable in Kenya’s climate, where the wet seasons can introduce water into every improperly sealed connection.
Cable Preparation Tools
Proper connector installation begins with proper cable preparation. A coaxial cable stripper cuts through the outer jacket and braid at precise depths, exposing the correct lengths of braid and centre conductor without nicking either. At Pro-Logic Technologies, our kits include quality cable preparation tools alongside the connectors themselves.
