Yes. Via an HDMI cable, otherwise you won't see or hear anything on your TV. It can be looped through a soundbar or AVR if it allows full pass-through of video and audio.

There's currently no such system from any provider which works remotely from its display screen: while 'wireless HDMI' is a thing, it's notoriously unreliable (and in particular the bandwidth required for UHD simply isn't going to be possible that way)

Well you would either connect the stream puck to your internet via WiFi for it to work, or if your WiFi signal isn't strong and stable enough then something like a power line adapter would work but you should try the WiFi first.
