Correct cable to fit second sky box?

[beltabry]

Wanting to add a second sky box in my house, can someone tell me which cable I need to purchase to connect to my sky dish in order to do this, as when I have looked everything I have found seems to be extensions. Also where to purchase the cable at a good price? Thanks

just google "satellite coax"

RG6 will do, approx. £10 for 50m on amazon

You will need to replace your twin LNB with a quad if you want to use both boxes at the same time.
