Review on Get the Buyer's Point 2-Port Cat6 Wall Plate with Single Gang Bracket for Low Voltage Mounting by Deandre Vogt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Overall not bad but needs some design work

So this wall plate is good and does the job. It looks nice and made my installation "easy" because I didn't have to crimp anything. I used this to mount a Ubiquiti access point on the ceiling at home and used this panel as a PoE entry point. However, the biggest downside to this thing is the lack of a wall cutout template. The instructions basically say "Yes, place on the wall and trace and then cut a hole." Well geniuses, give us a really useful template. A real black plate frame or mount (whatever you want to call it) isn't really designed to do this. I ended up having to dot the dots and connect the dots with a spirit level to paint the pattern on the wall. I then had to cut it out and further shave the drywall to get it to fit properly. If we had a useful template, it would be even easier. I don't know if even a template from packaging or something like that would be nice. OK, I'm ready; One star off and that's on me. Thanks very much!
