Splitting cable to 2 tv 's

[Deleted User] · 14/05/15 - 20:59

Hi,

I have a Humax hdr 1000s freesat box wired up to tv with hdmi. I also have a triax tri-link modulator with a cable running to a tv in our bedroom with magic eye. Everything spot on. My wife now wants a tv in kitchen. Does anyone know which kind of splitter i will need to split cable to bedroom to make it possible to view tv in kitchen also with magic eye? Would it be either of these 2 or something else?

Hope someone can give a little advice.

Thanx.

The second item you link to will do the job.
You could just use the RF1 output on the tri-link but that won't give you the ability too use a magic eye.
Any "Sky Magic Eye" compatible splitter will do the trick.
I personally use an SLX branded 2 way amplified splitter that used to be powered by my Sky box (I think I bought it at Maplins).
When I got rid of Sky and went to Freesat I simply connected it to the RF 2 output of my Tri-Link and it just worked.

Thanx Bspks, will sort one out.

Cheers.

See http://www.satcure.co.uk/tech/split.htm#bodge

For "Sky RF2" read "Tri-Link output".

Hi,

Thanks for the help. Went with the Triax splitter/amplifier and everything works perfectly.
