QED Connect Aerial Cable (3m)

The QED Connect Aerial Cable sits within QED's Connect range — an affordable lineup of AV cables and adaptors designed in the UK to deliver reliable performance at an accessible price point. The Connect range sits below QED's Performance and Reference tiers, targeting everyday home entertainment connections where quality construction still matters.

Construction

At the heart of the Connect Aerial Cable are 99.99% oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors, chosen for their low resistance and reliable signal transfer. The cable maintains a true 75-ohm characteristic impedance — the standard for aerial and satellite signals — which minimises signal reflections and ensures clean delivery of TV and radio broadcasts.

An LDPE (low-density polyethylene) dielectric separates the conductor from the shielding, improving signal integrity by reducing dielectric absorption. The outer jacket is a flexible 4mm OD satin-black PVC, soft enough to route easily behind furniture and around corners without kinking.

Connectors

Each end is fitted with custom-moulded, 24K gold-plated coaxial plugs. Gold plating resists oxidation over time, maintaining a low-resistance contact even in installations that remain undisturbed for years. The plugs include a channel identifier to simplify multi-cable installations.

An aerial adaptor is included in the box, extending the cable's compatibility with different socket configurations.

Application

The Connect Aerial Cable is designed to connect a TV or digital set-top box to a TV aerial socket, satellite dish, or satellite receiver. The 3-metre length suits typical living room installations where the aerial point and display are on the same wall or adjacent walls.

The Connect Aerial Cable is also available in a 1.5m length for shorter runs. A separate Connect Aerial Adaptor (F-F coupler) is available for joining two cable lengths together.
