Default Where to buy 3 way splitter

Hi guys,

Just wondered if theres anywhere in the UK where I can buy a decent quality CATV 3 way splitter? Theres a few on ebay but I dont want to buy any cheap tat that could cause excessive loss or introduce interference etc.

Any suggestions?

Much appreciated.
CP.

Oh if thats the case, then I'll just buy from ebay.
Unfortunately I assumed that ones labelled as CATV/SAT splitters wouldn't be the same as ones dished out by installers.

I'm currently using two of these from B&Q in my setup.
Philex 4 Way Satellite Splitter, 27902G/04
But then I have a B&Q about 2 minutes walk away and I'm lazy! They seem to work just fine.

I've just had VM installed and they use Technetix splitters - you can buy from them direct at Inhome-Network or alternatively www.mediacables.co.uk also seem to supply them.

Brand makes no difference as long as they support the right frequency spec.

Use anything.
