Name of plug in US

What's the name of the plugs in USA?

It seems that USA televisions only use F Type connectors.

RG6 or RG59. Mostly RG6 now for cable and satellite receivers.

This looks to me like an RF plug I have seen used for antenna input on some imported FM tuners (my Onkyo has one). I don't recall the name but Radio Shack used to have adapters to fit both the male and female varieties of this to U,S,-standard threaded F connectors.

You have gotten one good reply from The Ghost in the Machine, although it took him 2 tries. It is an RCA plug, used for audio.

No... tHe pin is a bit bigger and round at the tip. Not like BNC.

[Man-wai Chang]

I can't find a BNC female to Belling Lee adaptor in Amazon US...

In fact Amazon US doesn't have any electronics item with "Belling Lee" in its specification.

[Stephen]

All of you are all wrong.. The plugs that are on the white cable in the Weblink is in fact known as Belling Lee. They are used all over Great Britain for both FM and UHF TV The ones in the pic are the male version of Belling Lee.

Belling-Lee connector or IEC 169-2 connector

Belling-Lee connetors are not used in the USA. We use F connectors and RCA connectors for TV RF:

However, not all the F connector plugs are threaded as in "quick connect" or "push on" connectors that simply slide over the threads.

Adapters are available:

That connector is extremely common in Italy. Its name is "9.5mm TV plug", see

Adapters to F connectors are also very common, see Regards

[Stephen]

PAL refers to the type of analogueTV standard rather than he type of connector

There are at least three analogue TV broadcast systems, PAL, (Phase Alternate Line), NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) and SECAM (a variant of PAL where the audio and colour is carried in a different way)

Belling Lee is a connector standard, nothing to do with PAL so its a mistake on the website.

So you want this to go on the antenna connector of a USA television?

Yes, F-connectors, but the name for oe without threads that goes on quickly and holds on by spring tension, I don't know if I ever knew.

They sell adapters to go from threads to smooth at Ace Hardware for a really good price, plus I guess they would have to name them on the bubble pack. Hey< I still have some bubble packs.

Video adapter Push-on. Converts screw-on "F" type plug to push-on.

Adaptador para video A presion

Only 99 cents a piece. Much cheaper than other brick stores, and almost as cheap as mail order. Plus Ace Hardware has more hardware than HD and Lowes.

So it's a push-on F-conector!

That is, if the answer to this question is Yes.

The url you give does have a center pin that is thicker than a US tv will accept. But you brought up TVs so I'm figuring you provided the wrong picture.

NTSC = Never Twice Same Color SECAM = Something Entirely Contrary to American Method PAL = Perfection At Last
