How do I extend my Sky q booster cable?

The wire comes round the house externally and enters in an awkward place.   I want to extend the cable and run under new flooring - how do I join another length of cable?

@JDA1  If you mean the cable from the Dish (not a booster) you can buy extension kits from most reputable DIY retailers (Twin core Satellite Extension Cable).

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

the wire goes to the wifi booster. It's thin and has a clear push connection on the end into the yellow socket.

It's the sky booster box and the wire goes to the wifi booster. It's thin and has a clear push connection on the end into the yellow socket.

@JDA1  If you're referring to Ethernet cable then you can purchase this from that well known online store

Hi @JDA1   Assuming that it is an Ethernet cable simply buy a RJ45 Coupler and an Ethernet cable of the appropriate length (minimum Cat5e).
