Can the sky q box go behind the tv in a media wall?

Can the sky q box be mounted behind the tv in a media wall and still be operated by remote control?

hi @J+Dent 

 

Remote wise generally not a problem as the bluetooth connection is extremely good (I have controlled my box from my rear garden - so through 2 walls & 2 rooms.)

 

That said if you need to reset it for any reason the remote initially needs line of sight

 

Otherwise - obviously you must be able to cable up  and if needed maintain wifi which could be a problem if enclosed.

 

The key thing is to ensure good ventilation & the main box should not really be mounted vertically if that is what you are considering

@J+DentYes as the controller is bluetooth it will work BUT the Q boxes easily overheat so make sure there is plenty of air circulation, also make sure you can get to the mains switch in case you need to do a reset.

Thanks both

i was intending on ensuring I can access it by pulling tv out of media wall on bracket

i will have to think about how to Not mount vertically (was looking at a bracket for that) but hopefully there would be enough air flow
