For LTE, WiFi, TV and a variety of other audio and visual needs, establishing the right connection is crucial. But like most things, making the right connection is never easy. Finding the right WiFi or antenna cable that’s compatible with your current device can seem downright complicated! There are tons of different cables out there with varying cable end types. It's important to know which one you have so you can get a secure fit that is right for your specific application. The right connection will ensure that your system will work the way it’s designed to. However, with so many antenna cable ends, coax cable connector types, and other connectors available today, it can get confusing at times. How do you know which one is correct to choose for your installation?
At 5Gstore, we are here to help with this antenna, amplifier, and LTE or WiFi connectors reference guide. Review the table below for a visual guide to coax cable connectors, their names, and their uses. Our detailed photo reference chart can help you determine what type of connector end is on your antenna, amplifier, or other coax cable. That way, you can make a secure connection and get better performance out of your signal booster, TV, WiFi, or other electronic device. Trying to use equipment and currently have the wrong connector? No problem. Instead of investing in a brand-new cable, a cable adapter is a great option. Adapters are available in a variety of styles to convert from most of these cable end types to others.
If you've ever struggled to identify connectors, you’re not alone. 5Gstore makes finding the right connectors, cables, and adapters almost fool proof.
Finding the right connection may seem difficult, but it doesn't have to be. We make it easy by breaking down common connectors into a convenient visual guide that identifies your cable’s end type, provides a short description of its common applications, and provides you with other cable ends that it is compatible with.
Grab your antenna, amplifier or cable and hold it up to your screen. You can easily compare it to some of the most common connectors on the market you'll be better informed about its usage. Can't find your connector? Have additional questions about WiFi antenna connectors, TV antenna cables, or other coax cable ends? We can help!
