Hello Best Buy customer Ted! As you know, but others may not, the Coax connector which is attached to the TV from the factory is a "male" Coax connection. This Winegard Flatwave FL-5500A Indoor HDTV antenna comes equipped with an integrated "female" connector so you will have no problem at all pairing the two. Please keep in mind that if you want or need to add a Coaxial "extension cable" to this antenna, my personal recommendation is to use an RG-59 Coaxial cable as this is the type of Coaxial cable incorporated into this Winegard antenna's design and connect both of those cables with a male--male Coaxial connector. Please see/open photo below. I have used "RG-6" Coax extension cables in the past and they certainly had a negative impact on broadcast reception! I did a GOOGLE search for you Ted and I entered the search term => Can a Winegard Flatwave FL5500a antenna be used with a 4k TV? Indication was made (as you can see for yourself) that this model of Winegard Flatwave Indoor HDTV Antenna is 4K ready! Please keep in mind that many product review organizations/sources rate these Winegard Flatwave antennas with the highest ratings.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The antenna has a female ended cable wire that should attach to the antenna input on the back of your TV. IMPORTANT: my experience has taught me the the slightest adjustment to the antenna placement makes a world of difference in the channels you'll pull in. Experimentation is everything, but worth the effort for FREE TV!
