Review on 🏠 Upgrade Your Home Network with iGreely Ethernet Wall Plate - 2 Port Cat6 Jack - White Wall Plate with Blue Keystone by Gary Stringfield

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Do you want to use them to connect multiple rooms together? 4k 60fps? Absolutely!

Let me start by saying that I would give a 4.9 star rating if I could. They worked great for me, but my only gripe was that the HDMI keystone part fell apart when my short and thick HDMI cable pulled it a bit tight when wall mounting. This could have been avoided if they had put a locking tab on HDMI Keystone, like Ethernet Keystone. It's more of a personal preference/nuisance than poor quality because honestly it's not bad. I just glued HDMI Keystones to the inside of the wall panels and they were very strong. Since I used about half a foot of HDMI and Ethernet cable to run right through the wall to the next panel (thank goodness our house designed the wall panels to line up perfectly and be at such a short distance ), I had to use a very thin HDMI so it wouldn't pull on the wall panels as much. However, Ethernet was very robust! (Same goes for the extra cable, but which extra connector isn't reliable?) Anyhow, I wanted to be able to plug our router into the wall, along with the HDMI that was plugged into the junction box, to power our Nvidia Pulling the Shield TV out of our living room. Room TV, to the TV in our bedroom. Needless to say after some tweaking everything connected perfectly and got a solid 4k 60FPS connection which not only was perfect for movies/videos but I was able to connect my XB1/PS4 and didn't get any input lag or issues. Whether you are a gamer, media enthusiast or whatever, I think they are great. And one last thing if you've gotten this far. MAKE SURE YOUR CAT6 COMPATIBLE ETHERNET CABLES ARE AVAILABLE! I forgot to check the one I tested and it was CAT5 and didn't work. It's okay, but I didn't notice it for about 20 minutes. Easily check cables, TV inputs and troubleshoot until everything works!
