Boxwave F-to-RCA Adapter 4-Pack
This four-pack of 75 ohm adapters converts an F-type male plug to an RCA female jack or an RCA socket to an F socket. It lets you connect vintage gaming consoles from the 1970 and 1980 era to a modern television set. The couplers are designed for easy installation without tools.
Replaces Original Switch Boxes
The adapters completely replace the older RF switch boxes that shipped with Atari 2600, 7800, 5200, 400 and 800 systems. The upgrade is worth it when the original switch box is lost, damaged or introduces signal noise. They also serve radio, CCTV and security camera video applications requiring a 75 ohm F-to-RCA connection.
Fits Coaxial Cable Runs
Each coupler fits inline with standard 75 ohm coaxial cable, so the only requirement is an existing F-type or RCA termination on the cable. The compact design frees up space behind the television or inside a rack compared with bulky vintage switch boxes. No external power or additional converters are needed for the connection.

Questions about this item
What type of connector does the F male end plug into?
The F male plug connects to a standard 75 ohm F type socket found on coaxial cables or RF inputs.
How do you install the adapter without losing signal quality?
Screw the F male end firmly onto the coaxial thread by hand until snug, then push the RCA male cable fully into the female jack; avoid over-tightening with tools which can strip the threads.
Will the gold plating on the contacts wear out and need replacement?
The adapter uses nickel-plated brass contacts that resist corrosion; under normal indoor use they do not require scheduled replacement.
