Sorry for the poor pics, but I found this under my stairs when I moved recently.




Can someone decipher the rat's nest of wires & tell me WTF it is, and if I can use it for something?
Its made by Labgear & looks like their HDMI splitters but I cant see where it might split from/to.
There are TV points in all the rooms,not sure where the "out" leads go to... do I put SkyQ under the stairs?
Will it need a pro, because, as you may have inferred by now,Im a techie numpty
Thanks

It's not that hard is it? To me it looks like a signal splitter, I took that from all the outs and the description on what I deduced is the in.

It's an aerial distribution amp. Aerial connects to that, it then distributes the signal to your TV points.

Thank you all for the help
I was a bit confused as, apart from the 8(!) outs, the others(the"ins"?) were only UHF & FM/DAB, so I thought for radio rather than TV.
