Electroline EDA-2400 Four Port Cable TV HDTV Signal Booster/Amplifier (Retail Package)
I just put in an HD antenna system (got rid of cable finally - woot!), and I had some long coax runs from the rooftop down the the basement and half the length of the house. Also, I had splitting going to four different TV locations. So, I bought this preemptively and ran the coax into it after about 50' of coax run. It splits to the sets from that point, some sets are another 50' away.
VERY easy install; the easiest part of the whole system. One of the RF ports is actually for power - very slick. The power transformer for the power outlet plugs in, and then has a coax hookup. There is no power cord per se - you just cut coax to length and run it to this device from the transformer. Due to this approach you could run the power from inside to outside very easily. Then you connect the feed to the unit, and up to four coax lines coming out, and you're done. There are two holes if you'd like to secure this to a wall or joist with screws - hardware was not included. The TV farthest from this unit gets an excellent signal, that is after a 50' run from the roof to this unit in the basement, then another 45' or so along the ceiling to the TV. The signal strength for the stations on that TV are all at the top end; transmitters are about 8 miles away. See my other review to check which kind of antenna I used.
Overall, nice implementation of this kind of unit.
