After spending several months resisting, I am now looking at putting in some Cat5 to upgrade the whole house video which is at the moment based on several video senders.

 

Ideally I would like to distribute DVD, PC, Caller ID (overlay), CCTV and TiVo to all TV's in the house.  My original thinking was to use Keith's KAT5 modules, but from what I understand I can only send one source down at a time.  So I think what I really need is a combination of KAT5 modules to get everything to a central location, then re-distribute over Coax to each room on different UHF frequencies - presumably much like hotels do it ??

 

Am I thinking down the right route or should I stop now before wasting more money on things I don't need (again). If so does anyone have any experience of redistributing signals of Coax ?

 

If the costs are horrendous then how would I go about implementing an automatic switching KAT5 hub?

 

Thanks,

 

Mark
