Can this be used for a basic over the air TV antenna?

These connectors and associated RG-174 coaxial cable cannot be used as antenna. But these items can easily be used for transmission of over the air TV frequencies. I.e. Used to connect your antenna to your TV receiver. A cable type more suited for use with TV frequencies is RG-59 or RG-6 cable as the cable impedance is 75 ohms compared to the 50 ohm impedance of RG-174 cable. So check the requirements of the equipment your using.

Is this right coaxial cable for att u-verse receiver? i moved tv & cable does not reach. i need 6 more ft with a male and female ends to link both.

These SMA cables are 50 ohms and cannot be used for TV cables. SMA Male to SMA Female Cable can be used well for SDR Equipment Antenna Ham Radio, 3G 4G LTE Antenna etc. If you need a longer line, you can search for ASIN B08MK7NFK6.

I need sma male connector to go to a flare signal booster, which has a regular cable to it, will this work?

I looked up the flare signal booster, without knowing the exact model you have I would say yes. If what you need is SMA cable this is the thing. It comes with 3 extra adapters that pretty much guarantee you would have what you need. From the picture of a flare signal booster I looked at I believe you are referring to the SMA cable coming off the antenna. One end appears to be permanently fixed to the antenna and the other IS a male connector that would screw to the connection on the main booster unit. This cable has a Male connector already attached to it AND a female connector on the other end. The adapters included with it will allow you to change either end. So if you need to change an end you will probably get the included connector to change it to whatever you need the end to be. Looking at the Flare Signal booster picture I am fairly certain all you will need is the cable itself. But it never hurts to have those adapters in case. For the price it is a great buy. The cable is well made, gold plated and hardy. If using it outdoors I would tighten the ends together and then wrap it with electrical tape to keep moisture out. Wrap just the connector and an inch past either end, that is-not the entire cable.

what is the BD lose at 16 feet for 5 watts?

This mainly depends on what frequency you use, our SMA extension cable after many tests before leaving the factory, you can rest assured that the purchase.

Great addition to a ham radio Go-Kit!

Well-made coax and brass adapter connecters. It even comes in a handy tangle-free zip-lock storage bag. And the inclusion of 3 adapters is a bit of marketing genius!I bought this for my dual band rollup J-pole antenna. Using an arborist throw bag and mason string, I can pull the antenna into a tree as high as the coax allows. My ARES group is providing safety coverage for a trail run through the fringe area of the closest repeater, and the extra antenna height your coax jumper allows makes a great difference!I could have used an RG-8x jumper instead, but your RG-174 is much lighter and more compact, and therefore makes a wonderful pocket-sized emergency antenna kit. I may purchase another 15' jumper for the kit, but 30' is about as high as I can accurately throw the bag!

good cables, strong signal and well made.

This is a strong and well made cable. The signal strength is ideal, and everything is well constructed, with no jiggling or looseness. My setup requires them to move and frequently puts some stress on typical beak points. Even after extended usage, everything feels as firm as day one.

Pretty good quality so far and picks up good frequencies.

Pretty good quality so far and picks up good frequencies. Thin cable but works good and I have it outside rooftop for an inside handheld 2-way radio. The added adapters are helpful and no complaints so far

Connector was shorted

I make my own antennas and purchased this specifically for testing and tuning.Fresh from the package to my antenna and NanoVNA, I attempted a test and the SWR was astronomical - everywhere. After some basic troubleshooting I found the cable had a dead short. Solid continuity from the center conductor to shield. The coax didn't have a mark on it so I figured something went wrong with the cable prep when the connectors were applied, and it was. I cut one connector off and got lucky. It was the one with a dead short.It's a good thing I was only using this with a VNA If I had installed it as a patch cable I could have fried a 50 watt radio.I can't send it back because I cut the connector off, but that was my call. I wanted to know exactly why it wouldn't work. Lesson learned.
