Sky box without cables

Hi all! So how do people have their tv mounted on the wall without all the cables showing? Is it possible to have a sky box without the hideous thick cables attached to it?!

No. All boxes require a power lead and HDMI cable at least.

Various options but will require some DIY. Easier options would be some cable ducting.

If your TV has the NOW app you can stream all Sky programming directly without the need for any additional box or puck.

NOW is also run by Sky and offers individual Entertainment, Cinema and Sports packages on monthly, 6 monthly or annual contracts.

If unsightly cabling is an issue for you and you don't want the expense of creating and hiding cable ducting, then this can be the ideal alternative means of getting Sky content.
