Hi guys

I moved into a house that has 2xcat 6, 1 areal and 1 spare coax running to each TV point.

i want to run sky q centrally as well as distribute a few other boxes like Apple TV etc to every tv.

So let’s say we just talk about one tv for a moment, I was thinking to have some kind of hdmi switch at the sky q side which has the various boxes connected on its hdmi input and Ethernet out. Then on the tv end Ethernet back to one hdmi.

Then some kind of way to switch inputs easily from the tv end.

Then I can replicate this for each tv in the house, by having a switch for each one and hdmi splitters Where needed (eg for the Apple TV).

Does this sound like the best way to do it?

Alternatively I could ditch the other boxes and just run the sky q centrally and one other box on the other Ethernet.
Is it even possible to run 4K over 1 cat 6 reliably and without too much loss?

many help appreciated. I’m sure there’s lots of ways to do this but I appreciate your experience on the best cheapest way.
