Sky Q

[Graham1024]

I'm just wondering whether I can put my sky Q main box behind the telly or not

Hi @Graham1024 ,

I have my main Sky Q box on the wall behind my TV in a dedicated wall mount, as long as air can get around it then it should be fine ( some on here may say different) , I've had no issues with mine in the two years it's been there.

As long there's enough ventilation and clearance then it should be ok as long as the Bluetooth signal can pass.

hi @Graham1024 

If you are meaning mounting your main box vertically  on a mount directly behind with limited space then we know some customers have done this but we do not recommend it.

SKY main boxes are not intended to be vertical & either way require suitable heat dissipation / ventilation

If you just mean out of site, with adequate ventilation then that is fine - my main box is in an alcove behind my TV

I'm glad to see I spotted it I suppose.
