Ok - Ill try and explain what i have in the easiest way possible..
In the corner of the room i have a yamaha amp with all the AV equipment added in, everything runs to this point including about 6 or 7 cat 6 cables.
From this point i have 4 HDMI cables running to 3 x tv points in the room and 1 x projector.
We are not sure where we will have the TV and we may wish to change over in the future so we are trying to future proof it as much as possible, 3 of the tv points can have HDMI running to them without an issue and i am going to have modules on each end so no problem, the one i do have an issue with is the longest length, the dredded 20m cable...
Because the HDMI cables are going into the walls for a TV point i want it as neat as possible and done want to have the cables just hanging out of the wall. i believe my options are...
Would it be better to either..
a. Buy a decent 20m lead - easiest option
b. Use modules and have 2 x cat 6 cables runnning to the TV point, i can then use modules on the wall and use a HDMI switching box although this will mean the HDMI switching box will be hanging behind the TV so this may be a little messy when or if the TV is on the wall
Is there anythng else i can do?
Thank you
Mike
