A pair of cat7 HDMI extenders like these. You need a cat6 cable long enough to connect the two baluns together. You may have to set the Humax box to output stereo to get audio on the remote TV.

They have a built in HDMI splitter and infra red remote return.

You are welcome. This works fine for just two TV's. If you have an existing Sky-Link setup there are ways to use this for most all TV's on the system. It will however be a lot more expensive. You can even use a Freeview-HD pvr at a remote location to record the distributed single box output.

I use this system but I have a AVR with 3 zone output so I can switch different sources to the remote TV to what is being watched in zone 1. Keeps the better half happy in the Kitchen
