The TBC B1031S is part of the B8 Series range of wiring accessories, purpose-built for reliable satellite signal distribution in both residential and commercial environments. Featuring a standard F-Type connector interface, this satellite socket is optimised for high-frequency signal transmission, ensuring consistent and stable performance across satellite TV and digital broadcasting systems.
Constructed with a durable Polycarbonate (PC) faceplate and base, the B1031S combines structural integrity with a clean, modern white finish that complements contemporary interior aesthetics. Its heat-resistant and flame-retardant material composition meets the demands of safe, long-term installation.
Designed for straightforward surface or flush mounting, the B1031S is an ideal solution for installers and specifiers seeking a dependable, low-maintenance satellite outlet for residential, hospitality, and commercial AV applications.
The TBC B1031S 1 Gang Satellite Socket is a precision-engineered wiring accessory from the TBC B8 Series, designed to deliver stable and efficient satellite signal connectivity. The socket incorporates a metal F-Type connector, the industry-standard interface for satellite coaxial cable terminations, ensuring reliable mechanical and electrical contact with minimal insertion loss. The Polycarbonate (PC) construction of both the faceplate and base provides excellent dielectric properties, impact resistance, and dimensional stability under varying thermal conditions.
The B1031S is rated to IP20, making it appropriate for indoor installations in residential, commercial, and hospitality settings. Its flame-retardant material specification contributes to overall installation safety, while the screw-type F-connector mechanism ensures a secure, vibration-resistant termination. The socket's 86 mm × 86 mm footprint aligns with standard single-gang back-box dimensions, simplifying integration into new-build and retrofit projects alike.
With an operating temperature range of -5°C to +40°C and humidity tolerance up to 95%, the B1031S is well-suited to the full range of typical indoor environmental conditions encountered in satellite TV and digital broadcasting installations.
The B1031S employs a metal F-Type coaxial connector, which provides a threaded, screw-lock interface for 75-ohm coaxial cable terminations commonly used in satellite signal distribution. This connector type is specifically selected for its performance at high frequencies, where impedance matching and low contact resistance are critical to minimising signal attenuation. The Polycarbonate body offers high dielectric strength and flame-retardant characteristics, ensuring the socket maintains structural and electrical integrity under normal operating stresses.
The socket supports both surface and flush mounting configurations, accommodating standard single-gang back-boxes. The internal contact assembly is designed to maintain consistent electrical continuity under repeated connection cycles, contributing to long-term reliability in fixed satellite TV and digital broadcasting infrastructure.
