How does dB apply to a cable amplifier?????

Posted by Bruce Righter on October 29, 2001 at 16:31:04

I'm trying a long run of cable to add an extra TV in a work area.
I may need a cable amp to boost the signal for the 100 ft run, but was confused at the descriptions of such amps as "10 dB," "15 dB" etc.
How does decibels apply to an amplifier???? (I understand the concept of playing one's speakers at 100 decibels.)
TIA,
Bruce
