Are you saying you want your TV somewhere close to the box mounted on your internal wall? If so, you should be able to get away with unscrewing the existing cable and replacing it with a short length of pre-made satellite grade coax. The sort with moulded f-connectors on either end is what you need.

Be aware that radically changing the cable length in your house can alter signal levels and this in turn can cause your service to go on the fritz. Replacing the original cable should restore things if this happens though.
