at 10MHz its easy to diy. active distributor will need 2 or few cheap gain opamps, the passive one is the said 2-way splitter earlier...

One thread on DIY distribution amps here.

If you are going for an Extron the ADA 6 300MX HV is the high bandwidth model, it has several channels to distribute 10MHz, 1pps, TTL etc and 6 outputs on each means you aren't likely to run out.

For example: 3 units with a 10MHz input and only one has a 10MHz output.   ;D

Any deterioration in a daisy chained signal would have a cumulative effect. Noise, attenuation, effects of each instrument down the line. All things being equal, if you have a distribution amp with six outputs you get six "identical" signals.
