Adapter IEC-stekker naar F-stekker ShiverPeaks 85323-EC — coaxiale stekkeradapter

The ShiverPeaks adapter converts an IEC plug connection to an F plug connection for coaxial cabling, providing a passive solution for interfacing devices with IEC outputs to equipment or cabling that use F-type inputs. The compact adapter is intended for use in domestic and professional audio-visual and RF applications where a direct mechanical and electrical transition between IEC and F connectors is required without additional signal processing.

Advantages

This coaxial connector adapter is passive and requires no power, preserving the original signal path while maintaining impedance continuity appropriate for standard TV and satellite cabling. Its compact metal body ensures a stable mechanical coupling and reduced risk of accidental disconnection. The adapter simplifies cabling changes by eliminating the need to replace cables or devices when connector types differ.

Suitable for

• Connecting a TV or set-top box with an IEC output to an antenna, satellite or cable line with an F-type connector
• Temporary or permanent adaptations in home AV setups where IEC and F connectors must be linked
• Field service, installation or testing tasks that require quick conversion between connector types

Key specifications

• Connector type (input): IEC male plug for coaxial cable systems
• Connector type (output): F-type female plug for threaded coaxial cables
• Function: passive impedance-matching adapter for RF signals in TV and satellite frequency ranges
• Construction: metal housing for mechanical durability and shielding
• Compatibility: standard 75 ohm coaxial systems used in television and satellite distribution

How to use

Align the IEC male side of the adapter with the IEC socket on the source device and push it into place until it seats securely. Screw or push the F-type connector of the coaxial cable onto the adapter’s threaded F output until snug, ensuring a firm mechanical and electrical contact. No tools are usually required, but a light hand-tightening of the F-type connector ensures a reliable connection. Verify signal reception after installation and avoid excessive torque on threaded connections.

Recommendations

Use the adapter within standard indoor environments and avoid exposure to moisture or corrosive atmospheres. For best performance, pair with 75 ohm coaxial cables and ensure connectors are clean and undamaged before mating. If extending or routing cables outdoors, use weatherproof connectors or enclosures at adapter junctions.
