I've just connected my new ee tv box pro. The aerial out cable I used for my old bt box doesn't fit the aerial out socket on my ee box so I have to always switch on my ee box to watch normal tv. Has anyone found an aerial cable that fits the ee tv box pro?

I have exactly the same problem WM04 when upgrading from a BT TV box (that is now out of date) to new EE TV. As the aerial out is now a flushed port this is not as simple as suggest above. Please can you recommend a specific female connector or let me know how I can get new coaxial cable sent out Thanks.

You need one of these at an appropriate length @ABL-1968 : Coaxial aerial cable 

Other retailers are available, you need to ensure you get the right length to reach from the box to your TV.

EE, and before them BT, have never supplied this cable; it’s always been a user-sourced option.

My existing cable fit perfectly, though I can see how a bulky one might go over the earlier protruding sockets, and not go into the new flush ones.

Screwfix have a good option at £2.39; it’s a male-male cable with a female-female adapter, allowing it to function as either of the cables a YouView or Pro box might need, and is as slim as it can possibly be.
