What's the name of the plugs in USA?

It seems that USA televisions only use F Type connectors.

We may both be wrong..
They look like RCA But they are in fact imports used on Antenna
Connections to Signal Amplifiers.

It's the TV antennae cable plug being used in Hong Kong, which was ruled
by UK before 1997. It's not RCA, the pin is shorter.

I wanna know the TECHNICAL name of that plug design.

RG6 or RG59. Mostly RG6 now for cable and satellite receivers.

No... tHe pin is a bit bigger and round at the tip. Not like BNC.

Isn't it just a push-on non threaded F Connector?

No screw!!

All of you are all wrong.. The plugs that are on the white cable in the
Weblink is in fact known as Belling Lee. They are used all over Great
Britain for both FM and UHF TV The ones in the pic are the male version of
Belling Lee.

I can't find a BNC female to Belling Lee adaptor in Amazon US...

In fact Amazon US doesn't have any electronics item with "Belling Lee"
in its specification.

re: "...Hong Kong, which was ruled by UK before 1997...
Is that somehow relevant to your question?

It seems that it's a UK format, like the 13A AC plug. :)

Belling-Lee connector or IEC 169-2 connector


Belling-Lee connetors are not used in the USA. We use F connectors
and RCA connectors for TV RF:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_connector>
However, not all the F connector plugs are threaded as in "quick
connect" or "push on" connectors that simply slide over the threads.

Adapters are available:

Thanks. I've got a dual tuner card from a thrift shop that has those connectors,
so you've just helped me out too.

Hello,

The F - connector is for Cable TV to plug into. There are usually other
jacks as well. Composite video and left & right audio jacks that are RCA.
Some TVs have an S-video jack which is a 4 pin connector that gives better
picture quality over composite video. Newer TVs will have Component video
jacks which are 3 video jacks all RCA, this is better that composite or
S-Video and even newer TVs with have an HDMI or DVI connector on them.
Using Component video cables for your picture will be better but less
convienent that HDMI.

Hope this help.

Shaun

So you want this to go on the antenna connector of a USA television?

Yes, F-connectors, but the name for oe without threads that goes on
quickly and holds on by spring tension, I don't know if I ever knew.

They sell adapters to go from threads to smooth at Ace Hardware for a
really good price, plus I guess they would have to name them on the
bubble pack. Hey< I still have some bubble packs.

Video adapter Push-on. Converts screw-on "F" type plug to push-on.

Adaptador para video
A presion

Only 99 cents a piece. Much cheaper than other brick stores, and
almost as cheap as mail order. Plus Ace Hardware has more hardware
than HD and Lowes.


So it's a push-on F-conector!

That is, if the answer to this question is Yes.

The url you give does have a center pin that is thicker than a US tv
will accept. But you brought up TVs so I'm figuring you provided the
wrong picture.

PAL refers to the type of analogueTV standard rather than he type of
connector

There are at least three analogue TV broadcast systems, PAL, (Phase
Alternate Line), NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) and SECAM (a
variant of PAL where the audio and colour is carried in a different way)

NTSC = Never Twice Same Color
SECAM = Something Entirely Contrary to American Method
PAL = Perfection At Last

No its not as it won't physically fit.

Sure it will. Hold the back of the TV up to the screen. Oh, you're
right. The OP provided the wrong picture.
