[PLUG-TALK] Cable TV splitter / amplifier

I have Comcast for internet and TV. Right after the cable comes into
the house it splits into a cable for the internet and a cable for the
television. The internet is no problem, but I need help figuring out
the television.

I need to connect the television cable to two different sets, one about
four meters from the connection and the other about 15 meters. I have a
couple of splitters, and they sort of work, but the signal is poor. If
I connect either set directly without the splitter, the signal is fine.
In other words, I need to amplify the signal.

I know next to zero about video. I tried asking my friend, Mr. Google,
but he deluged me with an overwhelming barrage of acronyms and terms
of which I have no ken. I don't want an entire course in video
technology, I just want to connect two TV sets and get a good picture
on both of them.

Can someone just tell me what to buy?
