Sky magic eye to serve 2 tv's?

martin57

Hi folks,

I have an old sky pace box in my living room and have a tv in another room which is hooked up with the sky maigc eye setup (rif 2 in sky box I believe) its quite a long cable run so I have hooked up 2 of the magic eye cables (proper connection one fits into the other) and everything runs perfectly.

Now I want to add another magic eye for anotther tv in a different room. Is there a splitter or something I can use where the 2 magic eye cables meet so that I can add another cable to bring the magic eye functions to a different room.

Thanks for your kind help.

Yes there is! All of these amplifiers/splitters will work with sky magic eyes. The smaller 2 and 4 way ones will take power from the sky box but the larger ones will need to be plugged into the mains. IF they are long cable runs or you feel you need to boost the tv signal a little the mains powered ones are better.

doh just realised i cant post links cos im a newbie!

here is a text link to a website/shop that sells all these things and has some pretty good guides etc:
copy/paste the link and remove the 'xx' and replace with tt to get the link to work
