Review on Monoprice Surface Mount Box Cat5e Single (107090) - Efficient White Networking Solution by Ricky Snyder

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Ideal if you don't need/need an integrated connector.

Pretty easy to install and use. I chose this because I didn't want to cut another hole in the wall to install a box and then an ethernet port, and I wanted to install it in a spot that would be covered by a shelf. Beautiful and made for quick and easy (and clean) installation on drywall as well as drywall. The result doesn't look too ugly, although I would like a slimmer design (but I guess that's when you're investing in an in-wall solution). lateral - for the cable entering the box; If you accidentally choose the wrong one, you'll have to start over (why not move the opening to the edge so it doesn't matter and works both ways). May have some instructions on what tools you need (for beginners like me). I used this cable punch tool to connect the cable: Cable Matters® Cable Punch Tool with 110 Blade, and along with a couple of tutorials found on your favorite search engine, it was up and running in less than half an hour (installation of two from that). .

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
