Keep in mind as I was told HDMI cable will not work past 30 feet or so . I haven't tried but was assured that and told to use cat 6 cable for longer runs
I used a 40 foot HDMI cable and it works fine. But I did put an amplified switch box on it too, which you need if you want to send different signals back to the rear TV. My switch box has two inputs and four outputs. So I have the DVD and the Satellite going in, and so far I have two outputs to the front and back TV. I am thinking about getting one of the wireless HDMI transmitters and it can go in one of the other outputs, and I'll use it for an external TV. With wireless the outdoor TV can be set up anyplace in the campsite and all you need is power for it.
