this is in my front room from when I had broadband from Virmin ( not anymore so not connected to anything )what can I do in order to get connection to back room? could I put splitter on end and then trail new cable or wouldn't that work

[digicon]

if you just want the connection into the back room then just get the appropriate length of cable and extend directly from the main box attached to the wall (First Photo)

if you want to keep one in the front room and run a spare in the back room then buy a Cable splitter preferably one that just does the 5-1000mhz range

ah yes I understand thank you , it was from my broadband but boxes can be connected up with it right as its the same cable.

and regarding splitter will you be able to link me too one which will suit my needs.

so would that bit go onto the end of the box and then the side with the pin goes into receiver?

That cable is fine

cheers digicon, so on that cable ive shown you the side with no pin that goes either to the virmin box or splitter and then the other end with the pin that goes into the receiver.. correct?

[digicon]

if your buying both say the splitter and the extension cable then you dont need the 'F' con barrel connector.

you will need a short piece of cable from the VM main feed box on the wall connected to a splitter then 2 separate cables from each output on the splitter going to required rooms

as look on the box it has a hole in so which side goes where ? will the side with no pin fit on there and then the other on the receiver. aIMG_1987.JPGs on the pic on the link : BLACK 20m Coaxial Satellite Extension Cable - Sky Virgin TiVO Superhub Freesat | eBay

ah right I understand. so if I was to use the splitter add the splitter onto the cable (on the pics) then add the other cable to the other bit?

[Dreamer786]

actually I will use the splitter as it may come in handy so might as well use it from the off.

so I will add the splitter onto the cable (as shown in pics) then add the extension to the splitter ends? correct

[digicon]

if your just using a long extension cable as i previously posted you do not need the Barrel connector it unscrews from the end revealing 2 F connectors or both ends with 'Pins'

screw one directly into the wall connection and the other into your box job done

[Dreamer786]

makes sense ! so if using the splitter il add the splitter on to the cable which I already have connected to box, correct

[Dreamer786]

and also if I want one of the connections upstairs should I go for the higher 5-2450 MHz range?

[digicon]

No! stick to a splitter with a 5-1000mhz range no need to go any higher

[Dreamer786]

okay il stick to it! but why what is the difference? if its going upstairs wont it lose signal or anything?
