The cable can be split at any point. The only problem is that the signal strength reduces along the length of the cable and with every split.

For this reason for signal strength, it is usually best to have the splitter in the brown box. However, because you will only have 2 devices, there will probably be enough signal to split it at the back of your property. In your circumstances it would also be easier for the installer. Make him a brew and tell him what you want.
