I need to run a 15M HDMI cable through a wall that has a PVC pipe. But the pipe is not big enough for the standard HDMI connector to fit through.

So I have a couple of options
[list type=decimal]
[*]HDMI over eithernet - (This is just to expensive +- R3.5 k for the sender and receiver)
[*]Run an HDMI to Mini HDMI cable... I can run the Mini HDMI through the PVC pipe. But the longest length i have seen is 10M. So I could connect a 5M standard HDMI cable to it.
[*]Get HDMI wire, fish it through and get someone to come to my home and attach the HDMI connectors to the wire
- HDCabling was my first try but they do not have stock at the moment.
[/list]

So I want to try option 2. But it would mean that I need to connect the 2 HDMI cables.

I need to know if there will be any issue with picture quality if I use the following setup

  • From My DVD Player
  • I connect a 10M HDMI to Mini HDMI and (http://www.cablekiosk.co.za/10m-mini-hdmi-to-hdmi-cable)
  • Then to the mini HDMI port I connect the adapter (http://www.cablekiosk.co.za/hdmi-male-to-mini-hdmi-female-adapter)
  • and then to that adapter i connect this adapter (http://www.cablekiosk.co.za/hdmi-female-to-female-in-line-coupler
  • Then I connect a 5M standard hdmi cable (normal one)
  • and then to my TV
