Much difference between makes, Netgear, Tp-link etc?
Any other recommendations?

I've supplied the system before to 8 points but never 14, cost is less than £1k (to the installer)
Fingers crossed it will be ok with 14.

The pro is installing it I only supply.

Spec quotes
Use existing network without destabilising internet connection
One-to-many using Gigabit switch
HDMI loop-out for local display monitoring
360 degree IR for responsive source control
Quick install plug & play design
Wall mountable for tidy installations
CEC & EDID
HDCP compliant

If it works with an 8 port switch why is it going to burn the house down with a 16 way switch?

But it can be done and I've supplied them before with 8 way routers, so why not with a 16?

It is possible but the trade cost for a transmitter and even just 8 receivers is a lot higher than £1k.

Don't forget this is only for a single hdmi channel, no need for a matrix, 8 way system cost approx £600 plus vat

No one seems to except that we have a system that works on 8?

I spoke to the installer yesterday, I must admit I had my fingers crossed after the comments here,
All up and running, very happy customer.

Still completely confused by what you wanted to achieve, what it was that needed the solution, without the detail we obviously all went higher than needed.

Glad you sorted it.

Customer wanted hdmi from a single source (Sky box) to 14 tv's. Over cat 5/6 couldn't use hdmi leads due to length of cable runs.
