Legrand Niloe Step TV-R-SAT-SAT terminal star outlet, 2 coax cables, 1.5 dB, black

The Legrand Niloe Step TV-R-SAT-SAT terminal outlet is a compact finishing element for star wiring systems, intended to connect two coaxial cables for terrestrial TV and satellite signals. Finished in black, it fits into compatible wall plates and provides a low insertion loss of 1.5 dB to preserve signal quality. The unit is designed for residential and commercial installations where separate TV and SAT feeds are routed to individual outlets.

Advantages

This TV-R-SAT-SAT terminal combines a compact form factor with straightforward installation into standard Niloe Step frames, minimizing visible wiring while maintaining clear separation between terrestrial and satellite feeds. The specified 1.5 dB insertion loss is suitable for most home and small-business reception scenarios, and the black finish offers a discreet, modern appearance that blends with dark decor or contrasts with lighter plates as required.

Suitable for

• Star-wired TV and satellite distributions in apartments and houses
• Small commercial installations requiring separate terrestrial and satellite outlets
• Replacement or upgrade of single-room TV/SAT outlet in compatible wall plates
• Environments where a low-profile, black outlet finish is preferred

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is intended specifically for star wiring topologies and requires two coaxial cable terminations (one for terrestrial TV, one for SAT). It is not suitable for bus or loop-through distribution systems that rely on different terminal types. Installations that demand integrated multiswitching, signal amplification, or additional connector types will require dedicated equipment beyond this outlet.

Key specifications

• Connector type: coaxial terminals for TV and SAT
• Number of outputs: two (separate terrestrial and satellite)
• Insertion loss: 1.5 dB
• Finish: black
• Mounting: compatible with Niloe Step modular wall plates and frames

How to use

Prepare the installation by running two coaxial cables from the distribution point to the outlet location. Terminate each cable to the corresponding TV or SAT terminal following standard coaxial preparation (strip, fit connector or clamp as appropriate) and secure the connections. Insert the terminal module into a compatible Niloe Step frame and fix the decorative plate. After installation, check signal levels on TV and satellite receivers to confirm adequate reception and make any necessary adjustments at the distribution amplifier or multiswitch.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your wiring topology is star distribution and that you have two coax cables available at the outlet point
• Ensure compatibility with the Niloe Step frame system and wall plate dimensions
• Confirm that a 1.5 dB insertion loss meets your signal budget, especially for long cable runs
• Check that separate TV and SAT connectors satisfy your receiver and antenna/multiswitch setup

Usage recommendations

Use quality coaxial cable (suitable impedance and shielding) and, if necessary for long runs, verify signal levels and add amplification or a multiswitch at the distribution point rather than at the outlet. Tighten connections to manufacturer torque recommendations where applicable and avoid sharp cable bends near the terminal to maintain signal integrity.
