Were replacing the coaxial cable run from our Condos utility/ equipment room where Coax Cable connects to our attic. The main line coax run from the utility/ equipment into the attic is 100 to 125 feet.
Please let me know what splitter or devices I should use to connect the main coax line in my attic (Belden 7195a RG6 coax main line) to:
(1) Cox Phone Modem,
(2) Cox Internet Modem, and
(3) Single TV downstairs.
Also, does a 2-way or 3-way splitter create less signal loss:
Option (1)
2-way splitter unbalanced to the main line (with one side to the TV downstairs and one side to a second 2-way splitter going to the Modems) or
Option (2)
3-way splitter (with low loss side connected to longer coax run to TV and the other two sides going to the modems) or
Option (3)
Suggestion for a better option(s)
For small fee, the contractor will my Belden 7195a RG6 along with their RG11 CommScope 4818803 F11TSEF (830BMU). Cox recommended I have a dual line going to my attic in case of damage and my research shows the Belden 7195a is a good solid core tri-shield cable.
Also, what Brand splitter(s) do you recommend and do you recommend an inline coax surge protector?
Ive been considering the Extreme Broadband BDS102H and BDS103H.
Thanks!
