@eslater98Yes it should work mounted behind your TV they don't seem to overheat, mine is stuck on the back of the bedroom TV with sticky velcro.

EDIT

The Q box should also work BUT they need lots of air circulation so they don't overheat. forget the bit about velcro.

@eslater98 

You've posted on the Sky Glass board but your post seem to mention a Sky a box - do you mean you have Sky Q?

You mention a Sky 'a' box. Do you mean a Q box or a Stream puck as this is the Glass/Stream forum?

@eslater98  Your post has been moved to the Sky Q forum.

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

No, there isn't a realistic way to output 

video and audio wirelessly instead of with HDMI. Such technology does exist but is notoriously unreliable.

Re: Mounting Sky Box

It should still work. 

Depending on

If you have a Bluetooth remote (has voice control) .  If it is then it will work. If not then it won't.

But it could impact the wifi signal putting the box behind a TV.

If you have mini boxes then the signal will get a little worse more then likely will still work though.
