This article explains what a cable splitter is and when it is used.
What is a cable splitter?
If you have a single cable outlet in your room and you want to connect more than one piece of equipment (like a TV Box and an internet modem), you would use a standard cable splitter in this scenario.
These are often referred to as two-way splitters, but remember:
- There are different types of splitters.
- Some may have more than two outputs.
Below you’ll see a diagram and a photo, so you can easily identify a splitter the next time you see one.
