Something on the lines of this , depends on how far you want to move it just remember the main Sky Q box has two inputs, this will allow you to move the box and TV to another location, if you want to just move the TV away from the Sky Q box then you'd need an extended HDMI cable but remember the further away you move it the poorer the picture/sound quality will be .

it's a digital connection - quality isn't a factor as such. Either is works or not. 3-5m is the limit for a passive cable.

Re: What cable do I need to buy to run from the box if I want to move my tv to a different location
Thanks for the responses. Basically I want to turn our room around but the box on the wall will need cables from it which will need to be run around the whole room to get my tv and and box to where I need it to be. The Wi-Fi router isn't an issue (I don't think).. I want the box to stay close to the tv I just need to get them at a different end of the room. I e asked sky previooabout having an additional wall box thing but the said they could only relocate- which means when I change my mind about the room layout again I'm back in the same position. looking for cables to run from the wall box - any ideas
