Discussion topic: Lead from TV to sky box no longer long enough

This message was authored by: Helenjane · ‎14 Apr 2023

The cable that comes through the wall with 2 connectors that plug into the sky box, that lead now needs to be longer as I've moved furniture around. The sky box is currently on the floor. Is there such a thing as an extension for this double ended cable so I can put the sky box under the TV?

I hope I'm making sense......tech is not my forte!

Yes, that would be a satellite coaxial cable extension kit. Widely available online in assorted lengths: make sure you purchase the twin ('shotgun') satellite version rather than that intended for aerial extension.
