Question:

Cable connector?

I recently discovered that I have some sort of TV cable on the second story of my house and I want to connect a new TV there. The problem is I don't think it has a cable connector on the wire.My question is where do I buy it and how would I connect it. Websites are fine.

Answer:

So, it's just a RF coax cable, but no coax connector? You'll need to get a crimping tool and maybe a few connectors (sometimes the tool comes with a few.) You can find the tool at Home Depot or Lowes in their home speaker/video wiring section (not electrical wiring) The crimping tool comes with directions. It's pretty easy. You'll need to strip some of the insulation from the wire (using the tool) then put a connector on the end, and finally use the tool to crimp it to the wire. That's all there is to it really.
