Scart Leads
« on: 04 December 2008, 14:34:03 »

Scart Lead from TV to Sky Box.  What length is it safe to run to.

Living room is approx 4.5 M square and am considering wiring options before new carpet goes down.

DoI/Can I run a 10Metre scart lead without quality issies, or is it worth running and F Type extention lead instead and woning the Sky box to where the TV will be when I get bored and change the furniture round.

Basically TV and arm chair will swap corners (Diagonally) from Summer to Winter.

TIA. :y

I would go for the coax rather than long scarts

remember to run 2 if you have, or may get sky plus ;)

Joins can cause signal loss, so you may not get such a good signal when you move it.

Also if you dont, you will have to get used to pointing your remote in different directions!
