If my doaxial cable is cut can it be repaired without being replaced?

hi @zain4567 

 

Do you mean the Cable from dish to SKY Q ?

 

SKY won't do such a repair but an independent satellite installer might - although it is possible to be done by anyone suitable.

 

Is the cut inside the house or outside ?

 

Technically it can be done - you need two  F plugs & and F-F connector

 

F ConnectorsF Connectors   

 

If the cut is outside then this needs to be done so it is fully weatherproofed which can be achieved with 'self amalgamating tape; tightly wrapped around the cables  & joning connectors.
