    Is that a coaxial cable jack on the side?!?! Is that a plug for regular, cable company cable?

    Could someone clear this issue up for me please?

    I would say its only good for a standard tv aerial, i.e. not something that has any voltage passed down it!!!

    tv tuner cards work the same way a tuner in a tv would theres no cable equipment built in

    I'm not sure if you have to have an external cable box to run cable tv through the coax, but it does come with two convenient adapters for different cable types.
