Ok so im in the middle of getting a new house together and I need to figure out how to sort out the TV and Sat system.
I already have full hd sub with a mini dish at my current house but will be transfering this to the new house once its built. However I would like to get all the cable feeds done before the plasterboard is up and have to consider how I am going to distrubute the signals to all the rooms.
The Basics
I will need at least 31 points for sat and freeview although its is more than likely they will all be used its best to have them just in case.
Basement = 3 Points (2 Sat HD, 1 Freeview)
Living Room/Dining Room = 6 Points (4 Sat HD, 2 Freeview)
Kitchen = 2 Points (1 Sat, 1 Freeview)
Office = 2 Points (1 Sat, 1 Freeview)
Bedrooms = 12 points 3 points each (2 Sat HD, 1 Freeview) x 4 rooms
Loft = 6 Points (4 Sat HD, 2 Freeview)
Total number of points 31 is this excessive and am I doing the right thing? Planning on getting a 5 input 32 output multiswitch and possibly a 60cm clear dish from Multiswitch. Multiswitches to be used with a quatro LNB. Satellite Superstore UK. Big Discounts.
As I understand it 4 inputs will be from the sat dish and 1 from freeview digital aerial. So all 32 outputs carry both signals and if I have a Sky HD box in every room which I doubt I will need atleast 2 feeds or 3 to be on safe side. I suppose if I go with 3 in the main rooms it makes it easier if I want to send signal from other rooms???? VERY CONFUSED!?
Dont know what I am going to do when it comes to the networking side of things!!
