Distibuting Sky+

I'm just about to wire up the house with Cat5 network cable and
thought that whilst the floorboards are up, I might as well install
PF100 coax ( from TLC -Direct) at the same time. The plan is tobe
able to view Sky in an additional 3 rooms upstairs -albeit not
concurrently on different cahnnels. I've scoured this NG for info on
what is required but I'd appreciate some guidance and any tips on
offer.
I currently have the main TV downstairs with the Sky+ box into which
are two coax cables coming from the satellite. I want to have the
ability to have 3 other TV's located around the house that will be
capable of viewing output from the Sky box using Magic eyes.
Q1 Am I correct in thinking that I need to connect a distribution box
with one coax going from RF2 out to the distribution box and another
coming back from the distribution box to the Sky box. Incidentally I
should be able to locate the amplifier in a cupboard about 4 metres
from the Sky box.
Q2 Based on the 4 metre distance and the number of connected TV's,
would this distribution box need to be powered?
Q3 If the 3 additional TV's are also connected to a Freeview box,
would this cause problems?
Thanks
