That's clever - how do you demultiplex the FM/DAB/TV/Sat at the other
end or do you still need an individual cable per input?


One cable per input is best but there is probably enough signal available to
passively split TTV, DAB and FM from one cable. The satellite stuff uses
volts and tones on the cable to control the signal it gets from the
multiswitch/LNB so best to leave those alone.
