How to purchase additional sky wifi max pod

I am planning a garden office, which is around 40m from the main house.  I am planning to run cat 6 cable from the wifi max router in the house into the garden office. 

 

I already have 3 pods in use in the house.

 

In terms of enabling hybrid connectivity in the garden office, (Both hard wired and Wifi, getting similar speeds as I would in the house), what are my options?

 

 Thanks in advance.

Sky doesn't sell pods, and you've already been loaned the maximum number they permit (and that the system is designed for)

 

In a small space and at the end of an ethernet cable, any 802.11ac wireless access point would be fine (but not a router) 

 

You could change the broadcast SSID to match that in the house if you wish.
