Yes you buy a quad LMB for example and then you can run 2 cables.

Hi, thankyou for your reply, I,m using a skybox F3 and i,m thinking of having another 1 in another room, i understand the use of the quad lmb ...tho could i just use a standard connector inside my house that connects to the sky dish cable and has 2 outgoing connectors to it ..thankyou kindly ..

Simple answer is No.
Each box requires a direct feed to the LNB on the dish.
The loop on the box or a splitter could be used but only one box would work at anyone time and the other needs to be off.

you can't use a splitter with sat cable.
read the threads on problems with more than 1 receiver on a quad lnb.
