Chroming TV Aerial Socket — T-C Series Belling-Lee Coaxial Wall Socket
TCDS5 is a chromed TV socket available in a professional 81.5×120mm wall plate. The product belongs to the T-C series line that has a lot of new colors. Unlike plastic wall sockets, this product is designed to fit well with T-C series electrical switches and sockets. The coaxial connector is recessed into the panel so that the cable entry is flush with the wall. Available in seven chrome finishes. The middle plate is made of steel for firmer holding and robust structure. It is made of high transparency and strength PC material. Certification IEC 60670-1:2015 and EN IEC 60670-1:2021/A11:2021, 1-year warranty.
Being a manufacturer of factory-direct products, we provide competitive prices in wholesale, offer OEM branding on the PC panel irrespective of the color, and provide a warranty of 1 year across the entire range of T-C series electrical products.
Belling-Lee / IEC Connector — The Universal TV Aerial Standard
This chromed Belling-Lee socket employs the standard push-in coaxial connector that is present on all TV aerial cables in the UK and Europe. The Belling-Lee/IEC connector serves a universal function for terrestrial television — it is compatible with a male standard coaxial plug that is used on TV aerial leads, Freeview machines, and digital TV receivers. The connector has been integrated into the panel having dimensions of 81.5×120mm, ensuring that the cable access point is flush with the wall, thus preventing any possibility of an accidental plug damage. The steel middle plate acts as an extra support for the panel during insertion of the cable. No power connection is needed since it is a passive signal passthrough connector. If that were not enough, this connector is IEC 60670-1:2015 and EN IEC 60670-1:2021/A11:2021 compliant.
Matching the T-C Series — TV Aerial Socket in the Same Chroming Finish
This white television aerial socket with chromed silver touches, belongs to T-C series featuring exactly the same dimensions of 81.5x120mm, made of high transparency PC panel materials and available in same seven finishes, as T-C series switches and sockets. TCDS5 socket can be found in living rooms or media rooms next to T-C series switches and power sockets with fully alike profiles, materials and chromed metallic elements. Keep T-D series receptor with TDDS5 socket also on shelf for those customers who prefer different metallic accents in the design of the device — both receptor series feature the same Belling-Lee connector system but come in different chromed color combinations.

TV Socket vs Satellite Socket: Choosing the Right Aerial Wall Socket for Your Project
A practical guide to specifying the correct TV or satellite wall socket for residential and commercial installations.
TV Aerial Socket vs Satellite Socket — Which One Do You Need?
The TCDS5 aerial socket for terrestrial television — whether Freeview, digital terrestrial TV, or standard aerial signals. It comes with a Belling-Lee / IEC push-in connection. By contrast, a satellite socket has an F-type screw connection to receive satellite signals from a satellite dish — for instance, from a Sky or Freesat dish. Although both sockets look similar, they should not be confused. There is a considerable difference in the type of signals received, frequencies, and connector design. If you need to install both sockets, it is advisable to use both sockets side by side, as they use the same T-C series 81.5 x 120 mm panel format, including chroming finishes.
T-C Series vs T-D Series — Which Chroming Palette for Your TV Socket?
The T-C series (TCDS5) combines cool Silver with White, warm Gold with Black, and dark Gun with Gray, and includes a separate Golden option. The T-D series (TDDS5) combines warm Gold with White, dark Gun with Black, and cool Silver with Gray. By offering both series, you can provide customers with a complete selection of metallic accent combinations for their TV aerial wall placements.
Finish Selection — Which Chroming Color for Your Media Room?
White + Chroming Silver: A sharp visual contrast can be observed through the silver metallic rim placed against the snow-white background. Combinations of black and chroming gold result in this desirable design that creates an impact of warmth and heat in the setting where it is installed. Gray and chroming gun combination represents a powerful contrast of colors resulting in an efficient design with the use of gunmetal and neutral gray color.
