Our old house needed to have some kind of extra power connected or the signal was always staticky (basic cable). It looked like a regular wall wart with a coax jack on it, that fed a short cable to what looked like a splitter used in reverse (with the "in" going to the nearby TV, and the "out"s going to this wall adapter and back to the main splitter for the house). I was never entirely sure what it was (haven't lived there in ages) but the cable was garbage if it wasn't plugged in.
