Virgin Media and Sky on Same Coax

Agent Smith · 2016-10-13 16:09:17

Hi, I currently have sky TV and Virgin media Broadband in my Flat. The Installer Advised when i got the TV installed that i could Run the Sat and Broadband signal down the same cable to the appartment. Can you advise what type of splitter / Destacker I would need to do this?

In my experience , you can run satellite and UHF Saorview down the same coax but not broadband at the same time. Perhaps he is aware of some new device that can do this but I've yet to see it.

A normal SAT/TV splitter/combiner should work. Connect the broadband to the TV side.
