How to send HDI signal 50m

    Hi,

    I have a HD satellite box in my living room. It is presently connected to my TV via a HDMI lead. I would like to split this HDMI cable so that I could watch HD in another room and have the same station appear on both devices at the same time. The cable run would be about 50m.

    So my questions are:
    1) HDMI splitter: Where would I get one (good quality Dublin)? Roughly what would it cost?
    2) Cabling: What do I need? Where can I get it? What else do I need? I have heard that this can be done by using 2 x CAT5e / CAT6.

    Edit: I have just seen this and this. Has anyone any experience with these units??

    All advice and questions welcome.

    Thanks in advance :)
