Is it possible to distribute High Definition signals?

It is possible to distribute 1080p HDTV signal over Cat5, providing a cost-effective solution to HD distribution.

By using devices called "baluns" it is possible to convert the signal at either end of the Cat5 cable to a signal that is usable by LCD/Plasma TV units.

By using a matrix switcher that allows you to route any inputs to any outputs you can enjoy as many HD sources (e.g. Sky HD, bluray player, HD media centre) on as many screens as your budget can accommodate.

Testimonials

"I am a private landlord with a portfolio of very upmarket homes for students in the very best of locations in Loughborough. Over last summer The Cable Guys upgraded all my properties with digital TV aerials and installed a system for distributing both digital and terrestrial TV signals to every room in each property. The work was carried out with efficiency and enthusiasm and any problems encountered were met with a swift solution. I'd be happy to recommend The Cable Guys for any such installation." - Andrew Chell, Top Lets

"I would like to express my thanks to your staff, who carried out the television work at my home. I found the men hard working, clean and tidy, and most helpful. Many thanks once again" - G Bywater from Derby
