Whats the furthest a TV box can be extended meter wise?

As the title above says, looking to build a man cave and just wondering what the longest extension can be.

Thanks in advance.

    Depends on several factors, such as your distance from the street cabinet, the number of cable splits & the length of existing cable runs. The further you are from the street cabinet, the less leeway the technician has to increase the signal level being pushed out on your line to compensate.

        Far better to run one or two Ethernet cables to the shed.
