I've been given my little project some thoughand research recently, however I have some questions I thought I'd tap into guys with some experience...
Innitially the idea is to distribute audio from a streaming server to 4 rooms. The servers will be in the garage, however it would be a pain to route all the Cat5 back to the garage so I plan to piggy back onto the existing Coax/TV points and pull the cables through into the loft and link the garage with the loft via wireless.
Would this work?
The other question I have is regarding Kat5. I've read the whole site and can still not figure out how this (http://www.kat5.tv/images/patchable_system.gif) works! When you have two sources and 4 receivers:
a) What decides who get signal A or B (is it physically patched on the panel?)
b) Where/how does signal A get split to say receiver 1 and 2?
Finally, I plan to have a switch in the loft and the garage linked over Wireless. Will this mean that this (http://www.kat5.tv/images/patchable_system.gif) will not work if the source is in the garage?
I hope this made sense...
Thanks in advance
