Good afternoon, I asked for an extension for the cable but it’s max 3m , firstly if I ordered another can you join them without losing signal strength or can the internal box be moved

Changing coax length can affect the signal - so it would need adjusting by a tech visit anyway.

Best to call in and a book a Tech to move the box - they may install another entry point or fit a longer custom made cable and rebalance all the signals.

There will be a (very reasonable) charge of £25 for everything

Hello @Bear3080 

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community.

We have cables from 5m, 10m, 15m, or can arrange a visit for £25.

I'll send you a PM now to assist further.
