RTV terminal socket - ANTHRACITE IMPRESJA GPA-10YPZ/M/50

Terminal Socket for RTV Installations with 10 dB Attenuation

This socket is designed to terminate serial antenna installations—where the cable from the antenna passes through multiple rooms and requires a final, secure signal isolation point. Without it, the signal could reflect within the circuit, causing interference or degraded picture quality. The 10 dB attenuation ensures optimal signal damping at the line’s end, without impairing signal flow to upstream sockets.

Surface-mount installation allows the device to be concealed within the wall—ideal for modern, clean interior designs. No additional mounting components are required, and its thermoplastic housing is halogen-free, meaning low emission of hazardous substances during sudden heating. The IP-20 protection rating provides basic protection against touch and dust—sufficient for residential indoor use.

Anthracite color—matte and deep—blends seamlessly into both minimalist, industrial interiors and classic spaces with dark accents. This is not typical “white hardware”—it’s an architectural element that doesn’t draw attention but remains visually present. It integrates perfectly with Impresja frames in aluminum and glass: if you’re installing a multi-function system (e.g., TV socket + USB + network), this terminal socket serves as its natural endpoint.

Requires a frame (not included in the set)—standard for professional installations, enabling easy replacements and consistent aesthetic across the entire collection. Remember: do not use this as the first socket in the line. Its purpose is not signal transmission, but quiet termination.

Why It Works Well

• 10 dB Attenuation – Not arbitrary: carefully selected for standard cable lengths in single-family homes. Too low = reflections; too high = weak signal at distant outlets.
• Matte Finish – Resists fingerprint smudges and avoids mirror-like glare—critical in living rooms and kitchens.
• Halogen-Free Housing – Meets indoor safety standards; emits no acidic fumes when overheated.
• Surface-Mount Installation – Enables clean installation without opening walls; requires a backbox with minimum 60 mm depth.
• Compatibility with Impresja System – If you already use other sockets from this series (e.g., dual TV or HDMI), this terminal unit provides a logical and aesthetically cohesive finish.

You don’t need this socket if you have only one outlet in your home—but if you’re installing a branched RTV network across multiple rooms? It’s essential. This isn’t an “add-on”—it’s a critical component of a properly designed circuit.
