The package comes with screws and rawl plugs but these are not really suitable for a plasterboard installation so it’s worth having proper plasterboard plugs if you chose to go down this route.
The RF2 output on the rear of most standard Sky and Sky+ boxes is great for controlling the Sky box from other rooms with a remote eye. If you want the comfort of completely altering your TV's direction, a tilt and swivel TV bracket is perfect. If you have a loft and especially if your are installing the Sky box in an upstairs room or bedroom, in a very similar fashion to installing a Sky box under the stairs the Sky box can be installed in the loft space. You may or may not already be aware, but the Sky box doesn’t have to be on show and it can be hidden away and still be controlled and accessed as normal.If you have an old Sky+HD or normal Sky box you can connect a coax cable to the RF2 output with a remote eye installed in sight of the TV remote and once set up this will work as if the box was on show. This will allow the DC voltage from the RF2 output on the Sky box to pass through the amplifier and onto all your remote eyes. The remote normally works fine even with infra red style remotes I would just advise that when you slot the box behind the TV that you do so nearer the edges of the TV with the front of the box facing outwards so that it can receive the infra red commands from the remote.
The IR emitter is positioned and installed in front infra-red sensor on the Sky box which will deliver the commands by the handset, received by the magic eye down the coaxial cable.The blog assumes that this will be a HDMI cable but there are other systems out there that allow a HDMI signal to be relayed from your Sky box over Cat5/6 or coaxial cables which I will discuss in an older blog on how to distribute Sky Q around your home. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. If you want to run to multiple TV points you will want to install a distribution amplifier that has an "DC pass" facility. Each type of bracket has different capabilities, so take a moment to decide what you're looking for.
Looks really tidy and doesn’t block any IR signals can just sit behind the TV completely out of sight. Our Sky Q Mini Wall Bracket doesn't block the IR sensors on the Sky Mini Box, but you will still want to test your setup to determine the best mounting location.Home Retail Group Card Services Limited is registered in England (04007072) at 33 Holborn, London, United Kingdom, EC1N 2HT.
