同轴电缆被认为是连接(Coax)电视和机顶盒(TV and cable box)的唯一标准。这是多年来的默认输出。(default output)如今，它可能听起来已经过时，但它们仍然被广泛使用。通常，同轴电缆(Coax)连接用于从卫星接收我们家中的连接。如果你家里有一个旧的有线卫星箱(cable satellite box)，你必须知道它只输出Coax。现在，当您购买新电视时，问题就出现了。随着技术的进步，新电视(TVs)不支持同轴电缆(Coax)，仅支持HDMI 和 USB(HDMI and USB)。因此，我们在这里提供了将同轴电缆转换为 HDMI 电缆的解决方案。 ( to convert Coaxial to HDMI cable. )
如何将同轴电缆(Coaxial Cable)转换为 HDMI
市场上有很多同轴(Coaxial)转HDMI 电缆(HDMI cable)连接器。您可以在线或离线获取它们。在本文中，我们将告诉您如何将同轴电缆(Coaxial cable)转换为HDMI。但首先，让我们看看HDMI和同轴电缆(Coax cable)是什么以及它们之间的区别。
同轴电缆(Coaxial Cable)
同轴电缆(Coaxial cable)发明于 19 世纪，用于传输无线电信号。它具有三层架构。同轴电缆(Coax)由铜芯(copper core)和上面的两层绝缘层组成。它旨在以最小的阻碍或拦截(hindrance or interception)传输模拟信号。同轴电缆(Coax)广泛用于收音机、电报和电视。它现在已被光纤和其他承诺更快传输的技术所取代。
同轴电缆(Coax)很容易在距离上发生数据/信号丢失。光纤技术(Fiber technology)比同轴电缆(Coax)更快、更可靠，但需要更多投资。同轴电缆(Coax)需要最少的投资和维护(investment and maintenance)。
HDMI 线(HDMI Cable)
HDMI 代表高清多媒体接口(High Definition Multimedia Interface)。它是由日本电视制造商在(Japan)日本(Japan)发明的，是家庭中最受欢迎的同轴电缆(coax cable)替代品。它以海量(colossal amount)数据在设备之间传输信号，并以高清或超高清接口(definition interface)广播信号。它也带有音频。
HDMI是一种数字电缆。它没有任何数据丢失。它比同轴电缆承载更多的数据，并且可以以更快的速度传输信号。它执行数字传输，因此不受任何干扰或阻碍(interference or hindrance)。如今，每台电视、宽带和其他有线设备(cable device)都包含HDMI端口，而不是同轴端口。
2 将同轴电缆转换为 HDMI 的方法(2 Ways to Convert Coaxial cable to HDMI)
您可以通过一些方法将同轴电缆(Coaxial cable)转换为HDMI，反之亦然(HDMI or vice-versa)。您可能需要升级设备才能将事情做好。现在，让我们直接进入我们可以遵循的方法：
1.升级机顶盒(1. Upgrade Set Top Box)
使用HDMI 和同轴电缆(HDMI and coax)的大多数人面临的问题是机顶盒。人们通常购买带有HDMI 端口的最新电视，但拥有(HDMI port)同轴端口(Coaxial port)的机顶盒。解决此问题的最简单方法是更换机顶盒或有线电视盒。(box or cable box)您的机顶盒不支持HDMI，这表明您使用的机顶盒太旧了。现在是时候更换并获得支持HDMI的机顶盒了。
将旧盒子更换为新盒子是最简单的方法，但如果您的服务提供商(service provider)要求不合逻辑的更换费用(replacement charge)，那么它可能不是您的理想解决方案。
2. 购买同轴转 HDMI 转换器(2. Buy a Coax to HDMI converter)
这是一个简单的 4 步过程。
- 获取信号转换器。
- 连接同轴电缆
- 连接 HDMI
- 打开设备
您可以购买在同轴电缆和 HDMI(Coax and HDMI)之间充当中介的适配器。您可以在任何电器店或电缆店(cable shop)买到这些适配器。您也可以在线(online)订购。转换器适配器从(converter adaptor)同轴电缆(coax cable and converts)输入模拟信号并将其转换为数字以使用HDMI。
您可以在市场上获得两种类型的适配器。一种带有HDMI 和同轴电缆插座(HDMI and Coax sockets)，另一种带有连接电缆。您需要做的就是先将转换器与同轴输入(coax input)连接，然后将设备的HDMI 端口(HDMI port)连接到转换器。按照步骤：
- (Connect one)将同轴电缆(Coax)的一端连接到有线电视盒的(cable box) 同轴电缆输出端口(Coax Out port)。将另一端连接到标有Coax In的转换器
- 现在使用HDMI 电缆(HDMI cable)连接设备和转换器(device and converter)，就像使用同轴电缆(coax cable)一样。
- 现在您需要打开设备来测试已安装的连接。
现在您已经连接了转换器和其他必要的电缆并打开了设备，您的设备必须开始接收信号。如果几分钟后没有出现，则考虑选择输入法(input method)为HDMI-2。
这种方法非常简单。你只需要投入一些钱购买信号转换器，就是这样。发布后(Post)，转换只需几分钟。现在您已经连接了转换器和其他必要的电缆，您需要打开设备并将输入法(input method)选择为HDMI。
从 HDMI-1 切换到 HDMI-2 的步骤(Steps to switch from HDMI-1 to HDMI-2)
- 首先(First)，您需要在您的设备上连接所有支持HDMI的(HDMI)设备并打开(device and turn)电源。
- 现在拿起你的遥控器并按下(remote and press)输入按钮(Input button)。显示屏将显示一些变化。继续按下按钮，直到屏幕显示 HDMI 1 到HDMI 2。按确定(Press OK)。
- 如果您在遥控器上找不到任何输入按钮，请按菜单按钮并(Menu button and look)在菜单列表中查找输入或源。(Input or Source)

如果您的新设备不支持同轴电缆也没关系。市场上有很多替代方案和解决方法可以帮助您。信号转换器很容易获得，并且在将同轴电缆(Coax)转换为HDMI时效果很好。
How to Convert Coaxial Cable to HDMI (2022)
Coax cables were conѕidered the sole standard for connecting your TV and cable box. It was the default оutput for many years. Nowadays, it may sound outdated, but they are stіll used extensively. Usually, Cоax connections are used to receive a connection in our homes from a satellite. If you have an old cable satellite box at your home, you must know that it only outputs Сoax. Now the problem arises when you buy a new TV. As technоlogy has аdvanced, new TVs do not support Coax аnd sυpports only HDMI and USB. So here we are with the ѕolution to convert Coaxial to HDMI cable.
How to Convert Coaxial Cable to HDMI
There are plenty of Coaxial to HDMI cable connectors available in the market. You can get them online or offline. In this article, we will tell you how to convert Coaxial cable to HDMI. But first, let us see what an HDMI and a Coax cable is and the difference between them.
Coaxial Cable
Invented in the 19th century, Coaxial cable was used to carry out radio signals. It has a three-layer architecture. Coax cables are made up of a copper core and two-layer insulation above that. It was meant to transfer analog signals with a minimum of hindrance or interception. Coax cables were extensively used in radios, telegraphs, and televisions. It has now been replaced by fiber and other technologies that promise faster transmission.
Coax cables are prone to data/signal loss over distance. Fiber technology is faster and more reliable than Coax but requires more investment. Coaxial cables require minimum investment and maintenance.
HDMI Cable
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It was invented in Japan by the Japanese TV manufacturers and is the most popular replacement for the coax cable at homes. It carries out signals among devices with a colossal amount of data and broadcasts signals at high definition or ultra-high definition interface. It carries audio too.
HDMI is a digital cable. It is void of any data losses. It carries more data than coaxial cable and can deliver signals at a much faster speed. It performs digital transmission and is hence void of any interference or hindrance. Nowadays, every TV, broadband, and other cable device comprises HDMI ports instead of coaxial ports.
2 Ways to Convert Coaxial cable to HDMI
There are some methods by which you can convert your Coaxial cable to HDMI or vice-versa. You may require upgraded equipment to get things right. Now, let us hop right into the methods we can follow:
1. Upgrade Set Top Box
The problem that maximum people face with HDMI and coax are the set-top boxes. People generally buy the latest TVs with HDMI port but have a set-top box of Coaxial port. The easiest way to solve this problem is to get your set-top box or cable box replaced. Your set-top box not supporting HDMI is an indication that you’re using a way too old box. Now is the time to replace and get an HDMI supporting set-top box.
Replacing an old box for a new one is the easiest way, but if your service provider is asking for an illogical replacement charge, then it might not be an ideal solution for you.
2. Buy a Coax to HDMI converter
This is an easy 4-step process.
- Get the signal converter.
- Connect Coax
- Connect HDMI
- Turn on the device
You can buy adapters that work as an intermediary between Coax and HDMI. You can get these adaptors at any electrical or cable shop. You can order it online too. The converter adaptor inputs the analog signals from coax cable and converts them to digital to use HDMI.
You can get two types of adaptors in the market. One that has HDMI and Coax sockets and one that has cables attached to it. All you need to do is connect the converter with coax input first and then attach the HDMI port of your device to the converter. Follow the steps:
- Connect one end of the Coax to your cable box Coax Out port. Take the other end and connect it to the converter labelled as Coax In
- Now take the HDMI cable to connect to the device and converter the same as you did with coax cable.
- Now you need to turn on the device to test the installed connection.
Now that you’ve connected the converter and other necessary cables and switched on your device, your device must start receiving signals. If it does not appear in the few minutes, then consider selecting the input method as HDMI-2.
This method is very easy. You only need to invest some money in buying the signal converter, that’s it. Post that, the conversion is just a matter of minutes. Now that you’ve connected the converter and other necessary cables, you need to switch your device on and select the input method as HDMI.
Steps to switch from HDMI-1 to HDMI-2
- First of all, you need to connect all the HDMI supported devices on your device and turn on the power.
- Now take your remote and press the Input button. The display will show some changes. Continue pressing the button until the screen shows HDMI 1 to HDMI 2. Press OK.
- If you can’t find any input button on your remote, press the Menu button and look for Input or Source in the menu list.
