Proposal:
I am looking to put in extra tv points into 5 rooms including an attic room. I have done a bit of research, but would like to keep the drilling to a minimum.
Background:
I don't know much about the tv aerial, all I know is that my tv in the sitting room connects to a 'cablelink' box (this is a box the size of a single socket box) under the hot-tank press in the sitting room. Since I bought the house I have never had to pay for the tv channels, again I don't know why.
Materials:
1. [broken link removed]
2. CAI Approved PF100 cable
3. Coaxial plugs
4. Faceplates for each room
Plan:
1. Disconnect the aerial from the existing 'cable link' box & connect it to the input point in the distribution box which will be located under the hot tank, in the press.
2. Plug the distribution box into the socket behind the tv (this is only 0.5m away from where the distribution box is located anyway.
3. Take outputs to all 5 bedrooms & decide suitable locations for the tv faceplate points.
Questions:
1. Any suggestions & comments on the above & have I left out any materials required.
2. Where to buy a distribution box, Maplins etc, any comments
All comments welcome
