Overview

The Vimar VM01631 is a 75 ohm IEC TV coaxial plug with a 9.5 mm male connector and a 90° cable entry in an ivory finish.

It is used to terminate RG59 coax when you need the cable to turn immediately, which helps behind a TV, a set-top box, or a bulkhead TV outlet where there is not much clearance in the cabinetry.

With insulated mounting, the contact is kept isolated during handling, which is helpful when you are working around other onboard wiring and trying to keep terminations tidy in tight spaces.

Key features

• IEC 9.5 mm male TV plug for standard 75 ohm antenna and TV coax connections
• 90° cable entry to reduce bend stress and avoid pushing equipment away from the panel
• Specified for RG59 coax cable
• Insulated mounting for safer handling during installation and servicing
• Ivory finish that blends with light interior trims and matching fittings

Compatibility and fit

This plug mates with IEC 9.5 mm TV female sockets and couplers used on 75 ohm TV and antenna distribution systems. It is meant for the common onboard TV coax run, not for connector types that use different interfaces.

Before ordering, confirm your equipment uses an IEC TV connection (9.5 mm) rather than an F-type connection, especially when you are mixing different TVs, splitters, or amplifiers on the same boat.

Installation and setup

Strip and prepare the RG59 coax cleanly so the braid and dielectric stay intact, then assemble the plug so the shield and center conductor make solid contact. A secure termination matters on a boat because vibration can loosen a marginal connection over time.

After fitting, route the cable so the 90° outlet is not forced sideways by the run. If the connection sits in a damp locker or near washdown areas, keep it inside a protected space and manage cable entries so moisture does not track along the coax.

Use on board

This plug suits cabin entertainment refits, compact nav stations, and any installation where a straight plug would press into cabinetry or leave the coax under constant strain behind the equipment.
