I have Interenet/TV signal coming from an optic fiber and fed into my coaxial home network by Verizon receiver. Can I use your balun to simply convert the signal from coax to cat5 in any room?

can't tell you it didn't work for me tried to return it with no luck it was a waist of money

Yes, I have used these baluns and work great, I haven't however used them in a network configuration, I am using them point to point, have two isolated pairs. I don't have cable, I use an antenna to pick off the air tv in my attic, but I would think cable should wok fine also.

I have used this product with verizon fios, and it will not work with a digital cable box. I was however able to get it to work with a standard SD box. The ones that give you no guide info etc. just Basic cable. This is also limited by the length of the Cat6 you are using. I was having issues with the signal until I took an additional 10 feet off of the cat 6 then it worked fine. The run was roughly 65 feet, from the splitter to the wall port. With cat 5 your going to less distance.Basically this product is one of those, just try it and hope it works out if all you have going to the location is cat 5 or 6. Otherwise figure out a way to get coax there. I have used this product with verizon fios, and it will not work with a digital cable box. I was however able to get it to work with a standard SD box.

My balun feeds off a splitter. Incoming signal split with one cable going to cable box and the other cable hooked to balun and converted to Cat5e cable. Approx. 75ft run to second balun attached to second cable box. I would think it should work if signal is split from a coax cable prior to be connected to cable or satellite box. Mine works great and the Cat5e can be tucked between baseboard and carpet out of sight. Makes a nice install.

No, this box only modulates an input onto a selected CATV channel. You need something else to transmit over the air.

I would have to say no. I could not get this product to work correctly from PC to TV on about 25ft of new cat5e.

If you are referring to a coaxial cable from your cable tv provider, then no, it doesn't. I initially purchased this unit because I accidentally broke the cable tuner on my LCD when removing it from the wall. I thought I could use this product as a workaround, but couldn't because it doesn't accept the cable tv coaxial cable line. It doesn't fit. Had to return it. If you are trying to achieve what I think you may be trying to achieve, then you need an external tuner or demodulator. Type in "All in 1 CATV coax to hdmi converter" and you are going to see the exact same product on the top three listings on the search results page. The prices will range from $136 to $218.

This product lets you convert from the RF output with RCA-type plug on the computer/game console to a F-type RF antenna male connector that screws into your TV F-Type antenna input directly. That means, you have to unscrew the CATV provider cable from the TV and plug this one coming from the console in order to use it. In order to avoid having to go to the back of the TV set every time to switch inputs, you can plug both this product and your CATV signal coaxial cable into the IN connectors on a switch like this one https://www.amazon.com/RCA-VH71-Slide-Switch/dp/B00009W3F2/ref=lp_6291368011_1_10?s=lamps-light&ie=UTF8&qid=1402970350&sr=1-10 and then its TV SET output through a coaxial cable into your TV set's antenna input. Then the switch will let you select either the CATV provider or your computer/game console.

If you mean can you send the ethernet/network output into a switch - yes, definitely, I do this at home for a home office. The other output (the built-in split) is the cable and you'd send that to a TV or set top box, etc - that's not network, but RF.

You can use either. I use cat 5 with video baluns and power adapter (pig tails) wired to the cat 5.

Yes, absolutely. You will need one to connect you your modem or switch and another one to pick up the signal at the other end of the coaxial cable in a different room.

You need an RF de-modulator to take your coax signal and convert it to composite video this is what this box is designed for. With the dip switches set for the channel you want to watch. This unit does one channel select. There are other boxes out there that allows for multible channel selection like "PcConnectTM Coax F-Pin Cable tv to RCA Audio/Video Demodulator, and TV to VGA Converter".

I don't think so. There is no way to connect coax. I think it is strictly for phone and ethernet cable.

In my configuration I'm running from a high speed cable modem to a 10/100 Mbps switch then to the ChannelMaster unit. But you pose an interesting question. I know that you can run Gigabit Ethernet over Coax. I do have a Gigabit switch that I can swap out for the 10/100. I will do that and see what speeds I end up with.

Only if you have an amplifier at your cable splitter. There seems to be a lot of loss in the baluns & Cat 5 cable.

No, it won't. It is an alternative to WIFI or Ethernet.Instead of connecting an ethernet wire between two spots, this permits you to use a coaxial cable.

RhymeBoy.G, Thanks for your post. I want to connect our satellite receiver, blu ray disk device, and plasma tv to the internet by cat5 cable. We have the following: dsl modem&gt;D-link wifi router&gt;desktop pc&gt;wifi laptops. I was not certain if I could connect the entertainment devices through a switch connected to the wifi router. Now I know this will work! Thanks.

No. This allows you to send an hdmi signal over a cat5 cable for a far distance.

Yes, thats what the conveter box doez. Just connect the coax to the tv in on the conveter box an the tv out to your tv or use one of the other output to one of the tv input

Your Verizon FiOS box has a 3.5mm port on the rear panel for IR input that you can use a plain mono cable to send signals. You may not need an IR emitter like this product.
