@babyface17  You can buy extension cable such as  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Satellite-Cable-Extension-Freesat-5METRES-BLACK/dp/B07NPNXZ5M#

Hi thank you for your reply. I see 4 attachments, I only need 3. One to go into the wall 2 for the back of the box.

That's a socket for a TV cable, not for a satellite connection.

@babyface17  Have you recently moved?  Did you not book a home move with Sky?

@babyface17 I suspect the wire coming through the bedroom wall is the one you need to connect to your Sky box. It's probably not currently connected to anything.

Follow the cables from the dish to see where they enter the property.
