The electrician stuffed it up and put 3 tight bends in the 50mm pipe. As such could not get hdmi cables through it successfully. I was not impressed. My workaround was to run cat5 through the pipe and use cat5 to hdmi converters.

My workaround was to run cat5 through the pipe and use cat5 to hdmi converters. This worries me also, my builder wants to use a 40mm pipe and needs to run up, across the ceiling and back down the wall. I'm worried that it won't work as easily as I want it to to pull cables. Do you think using slim cables like these would've helped you maximus? http://www.scpcat5e.com/hdmi-c-395/hdmi-cables-c-395_114/ultraslim-hdmi-cables-c-395_114_292/ Alkira Homes - The Olivia Re: Projector room set up 19Jun 07, 2015 9:07 pm Possibly. You've still got to get the connectors and cables through without damaging them. After the build was completed I arranged another electrician to install all my wall plates and fit and wire up the speakers. I had this fellow drag the Cat 5 cables through for me. He had to use cable lube. I had 2 cat5 cables run through the pipe. One is for the hdmi converter. The other is a spare. I can envisage that future converters might support 4k with two cat5 runs, if I ever upgrade the projector.
