    Advice Needed Multiswitch selection advice for domestic installation

    I'm in 6 counties, so it is a different setup. I can get 3 of the channels on my Sky box, but not in the other rooms without Sky Multiroom which is an additional monthly charge. Hence, all other rooms are supplied by 9E from the multiswitch.

    Thanks for all the replies. I the end I opted for the Mutant HD51. I've got no experience with these boxes, so hopefully they are straightforward to setup and maintain!

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Only just noticed there are chokes on the cable. I hope they will still fit down the conduit - I expect they will, but fingers crossed.

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Yes, I've been reading about this. Hopefully it is okay - 4K HDMI cables (are nonsense)

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Yes - sorry for the phrasing - I was really asking about those products. They okay? (Edit: Jut seen Terryl response) Also why mini HDMI as opposed to micro HDMI? Can they really support 4K?

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Will the solution I suggest in post #7 above work? I can't see why it wouldn't. Probably not as well as the Cat5e, but that is a much more expensive solution for the minimal amount of 4K channels we have currently.

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Old marble fireplace with a marble platform for TV in corner. Below which is a letterbox opening for what was a VCR. Its cabling and power was routed via 20mm conduit from above via a faceplate below into the back of the letterbox opening. 30+ years ago people did not take these things into...

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    These are overly expensive options. The HDMI plus adapter looks a decent option at this stage. It will work, correct? Going for 3m of cabling.

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Does that allow 4K HMDI - the ones I viewed online were very expensive for 4K?

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    It is SkyQ and they are getting Multiroom which enables 4K reception. I don't think it would be up to them to get a connection through the conduit to the TV. At the best of times, they don't tend to spend much time on their installation process.

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    To send 4K signal over Cat5e adaptors seems to be quite expensive. The install is for a SkyQ multiroom setup which will have 4K and a 4K TV. Therefore I want them to get the full benefits of it. In terms of modifying the conduit - cannot do as this is a preexisting structure. So, unless I...

    HDMI Cabling throught 20mm Conduit

    Hi, I need to thread a HDMI cable through a small straight length of 20mm conduit to get a signal from receiver to the TV. The cable will need to be approx 3m long and support 4K. Can I get a cable with HDMI connections that can be used for this or must I purchase a mini HDMI cable and then...

    Not yet. I don't understand which tuners I need. I was posting on the WoS forum and was told that FBC tuners might be better for me than S2X. So I'm lost about tuners now and don't know which to get. Can anyone give me some info on the differences? I thought opting for the S2X would be future...
