A:AnswerThe ClearStream 4MAX does not include the installation coaxial cable. We made the decision not to include cables because in most cases the length we provided wouldn't suite you needs. It's best to measure how much cable you would need for the downlead, and then measure how much cable you would need from a distribution amp or splitter to each TV. Then you can purchase terminated coaxial cable with the style connectors you prefer and at the exact lengths needed. Thank you for sending us a question.

A:AnswerNo, it is an antenna. It has a 75 ohm lead from the antenna to connect your home wiring to, or directly to a 75 ohm connection on televisions etc.
A:AnswerThis one works indoors but you will lose some signal strength whenever an indoors antenna is used compared to a properly positioned outdoor antenna.
A:AnswerNo but if you put a splitter be for the box one will go to the cabal box and one to your TV but you're TV has to be cabal ready and search HD channels if not you can put a splitter on the out cabal box and then one will go to the main tv and the other cabal will go to your TV but you can only watch waut is on the main tv box
A:AnswerYes, you can use the existing coaxial cable running through your house to connect all the TVs. Depending on the splitter Cox uses (and we are not certain of this info), we suggest you switch the splitter to a bypass splitter, 3-way or 4-way however many TVs you are connecting. You may also need a preamplifier to boost signals from long coaxial cable lengths throughout your home, which we suggest you use the ClearStream Juice found on antennasdirect.com. The ClearStream Juice will boost signals for a more stable connection. Here is a link to an antenna setup with antenna, splitter and preamplifier. https://www.antennasdirect.com/cmss_files/imagelibrary/Website-imgs/Accessories-install-imgs/C4MAX_JUICE_4WAY.jpg. I hope this helps!
A:AnswerGreetings! In an apartment an indoor antenna can be tricky. Placing an antenna in the right location is the key to getting better signals. We usually ask people to move their antenna around and move it up as high as possible on the wall, high shelf or place the antenna in or near the window. We also have a free app called Antenna Point you can download to your iOS or Android phone. The app will identify your location. You will see the towers in the surrounding area, so you aim the antenna in the right direction to pick up the TV signals. If you need help deciding which antenna is right for you, go to https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html and enter your zip code. You will be able to see where the towers are located, the number of TV channels available in your area, and the distance from your home to each tower. If you need any further assistance or are unable to utilize the app, we recommend calling our tech support team at 877-825-5572 or chat with us online at https://www.antennasdirect.com. Hope this helps. Thank you for your question!
A:AnswerI recently installed a Cable-Cutters type antenna using the new coax 6. Placing it in my attic (I do not have a metal roof.) and running the new coax 6 to my new 55" Samsung smart flat screen TV. I get 20 channels and am quite pleased! If your house has metal siding then the antenna must no be placed on a wall but can be placed in front of a window. If your house has a metal roof, then it is not advisable to place the antenna in your attic but, perhaps, on the roof top. Running the coax from the top of one's roof is more challenging as the coax must be of the outdoor variety and if one is not experienced in roofing, water leaks can occur. Also bolting down the antenna to the roof is important as strong winds will most likely cause problems.
Now, review your cable package. The antenna will pickup only so many channels. Depending upon what channels you watch / want, will determine if you can "cut the cable."
A:AnswerAssuming you have enough clearance around the mast, it should. The pole clamp looks like it should easily accommodate a mast up to 1.5 inches and probably considerably larger as the adjustment U screw is almost four inches long.
A:AnswerYes, it will work. We do recommend placing the antenna up as high as you can in the window to receive the best signal reception. Also, check the direction of the towers from your location. You may need to place this on an adjacent wall that is facing the towers. Click this link and enter your zip https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html.
A:AnswerI wouldn’t think so unless you’re in a really flat area. My understanding is most antenna are going to max out around 100 miles due to the curvature of the earth. I like it and you can see if it works for you with a booster unless you want some monster size antenna.
A:AnswerI tried it at about 10 feet off the ground but the signal was best at about 5 feet. Odd, I thought higher was better but not for.my.location... yours may be different.
A:AnswerTo keep your cable provider and use an antenna, you would need to run separate coaxial cables. More than likely the cable provider issued you a cable box and that box has the coaxial cable for cable TV. You can run a separate coaxial cable from the antenna to all your TVs concurrently and then connect the coaxial cable for the antenna directly to your TV coaxial connector. We are avaialble 7 days a week if you would like to speak with someone on our technical support team, 877-825-5572 or send a message to [email protected] and they can provide more info to help you install the antenna.
