Sky+ with tv splitter advice please

Right i'll try and make this question simple ( i hope)

I have sky+ in the lounge and what to use the RF output to run a WF100 foam coax cable to the attic. So i can then use a splitter box to send the signal to 2 other TV's in the house( bedroom and 2nd lounge).

I was looking at a labgear box like this :-

Could i still use a magic eye on both of the other TV's to control sky+ ?

And is there anything else i could use or need which maybe better that this?

Thanks.

just use a link amp the rf2 powers it up and you can use magic eyes.
just make sure you turn the power rf power on in the menu

a link amp uses power from rf2 so you dont need separate power and its cheeper than the one you were looking at.
i always use the triax link amp 2way or 4way and as i said you can magic eyes to operate sky in other rooms
