It boosts signals by +5dB, reducing pixilation and audio dropouts, while offering robust surge protection and a durable build for long-lasting performance. ## Description If you are having cable TV picture problems this may be the product for you. It is NOT compatible with satellite TV, and will actually block satellite reception - so do not order it if you have satellite TV. This product will improve your cable TV picture and reduce pixilation, snow, and audio drop-outs that are caused by a weak signal level. It is compatible with all cable TV systems and services. You may or may not notice a difference in cable modem speed when using the amplifier. A number of factors influence cable modem speed, and there is no guarantee a booster will improve modem performance. If you are boosting an HDTV antenna signal, you should get the best HD antenna you can afford BEFORE using a booster. This signal amplifier IS NOT a substitute for a good antenna. If you are using an indoor antenna or are having HD reception problems with just a single TV attached to your outdoor antenna, this product will likely not improve your reception. Review: Great distribution amp at a great price! - Installed this amp in the attic of a friend's two story house along with an unamplified HDTV antenna. The antenna by itself produced a perfect signal on the strongest stations, but on the weaker stations the picture would occasionally freeze or pixelate. With the amp in line, picture freezing does not occur and pixelating is rare. The longest run is about 65 ft to the first floor. Two outputs feed runs of about 45 ft and 25 ft on the second floor. I installed a resistive load on the 4th output. This is a very good product, easy to install, solidly built and sold at a very good price. I installed a second amp in my own house using all four outputs and it works great. Review: Great solution. Slightly annoying installation. - Great product. Our internet signal kept going out. We had technicians from the cable company out but did not help the shoddy signal much. The signal would be ok for a week or so after the tech visit. We switched modems, downgraded service, moved the modem to various locations in the house. Nothing helped...until I installed this system. Installed it about 6 weeks ago and have had perfect signal since. Perfect solution. Very happy with this product. I only give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the instructions are weak and you weirdly have to power it through another coax cable which is not provided. ## Features - Provides 4 amplified output ports plus a modem bypass port. The modem bypass port is not required to be used, so the amplifier can be used for standard OTA antenna connections also. This is a less costly alternative to the PCT-MA2-4P. - Increases signal by +5dB on each port - approximately 3x boost! Each port on the amplifier will be boosted by 3dB above the signal on the input. This allows you to connect longer cable runs and keep the signal strong. - Will reduce cable pixilation and graininess due to low signal levels. Typical low signal problems cause audio dropouts and pixilation. Boosting the signal before splitting (as this product does) often fixes signal issues. - 6 kV surge protection for lightning strikes. Gold-plated, beryllium copper construction, and powder coated housing deters corrosion. Can be mounted flat or at a 90 degree angle with built-in dual mounts. 12-15v Power supply included. Coaxial cables are not included. - This product is not recommended for use with amplified antennas. Using an amplified antenna with a secondary PCT amplifier may not improve your reception. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED FOR SATELLITE TV. CONNECTING TO SATELLITE DISH WILL BLOCK THE SIGNAL and potentially damage the amplifier. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00XEHY64W | | Brand | PCT International | | Brand Name | PCT International | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 161 Reviews | | Manufacturer | PCT | | Model | VC-5P | | Mounting Type | Freestanding | | Number of Channels | 4 | | Part Number | PCT-VC5P | | UPC | 811286010115 | | Voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | ## Product Details - **Manufacturer:** PCT - **Brand:** PCT International - **UPC:** 811286010115 ## Images ![4 Port Bi-Directional Cable TV HDTV Digital Amplifier Internet Signal Booster with Bypass Port and Passive Return - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51fIz43CTJL.jpg) ![4 Port Bi-Directional Cable TV HDTV Digital Amplifier Internet Signal Booster with Bypass Port and Passive Return - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31dN32LCvML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great distribution amp at a great price! *by B***R on March 29, 2017* Installed this amp in the attic of a friend's two story house along with an unamplified HDTV antenna.

This item solved my video freezing problem with Comcast Xfinity. My Xfinity problem I just had Xfinity cable and internet install. I have two televisions. The signal to my primary was good but the video signal to my other TV kept freezing. To fix this, I had to reboot the box and it would only work for 5 minutes before freezing again. This made watching TV completely impossible. I did not want to go thru the frustration of contacting Comcast Customer Support so I decided to see if this booster would work. I've installed it a month ago and I have not had any problems since then. Installation Tips This was easy to install. I replaced the three way splitter with the signal booster. All the ports are label so it is easy knowing what to connect to each port. You will need a two prong outlet and something to ground the booster to. The booster itself has grounding screws on both sides of it. Before you buy this, figure out where you can plug it into and where you can ground it. You do need to supply the grounding wire. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/43232117-4-port-bi-directional-cable-tv-hdtv-digital-amplifier-internet](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/43232117-4-port-bi-directional-cable-tv-hdtv-digital-amplifier-internet) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
