HDMI Wall Plates
What is the purpose of an HDMI wall plate?
There is no doubt that the popularity of HDMI wall plates have grown over the past few years. The main purpose of an HDMI wall plate is to support in-wall audio video cable installations. By using an HDMI wall plate you are creating permanent outlets for HDMI and other audio video connection types. The installation practice of running your audio video connections into a wall plate allows you to leave your longer more expensive in-wall cables in the wall where they are safe, while you use shorter less expensive cables to come off the wall to your audio video components. An HDMI wall plate will ensure your in-wall cables are protected while giving you permanent outlets to use for your everyday connectivity needs.
What options do I have when choosing an HDMI wall plate?
We offer numerous HDMI plates that offer integrated single and double HDMI ports, and single HDMI ports with integrated component, coax, and composite connections. We offer the HDMI wall plates that offer numerous connection configurations, so you have the flexibility to choose the wall plate that best supports your needs in a particular outlet location.
How do I attach cables to an HDMI wall plate?
Attaching your HDMI and audio video cables to an HDMI wall plate is a piece of cake! All the connections are plug & play so there are no tools needed. You just plug your in-wall cables directly into the back of the wall plate. Then you do the same in the front as you connect your cables to your audio video devices and components. All the connectors on our HDMI wall plates are just simple passive pass-through connectors. The HDMI wall plate’s main purpose is to help you organize all your connections in a single outlet, which will give your installation the most professional look. Do you really want a bunch of loose wires and cables coming out of your wall where they are seen by everyone? And do you really want your expensive cables exposed out of the wall where they can be damaged? An HDMI wall plate solves all these issues!
How do I mount an HDMI wall plate?
All of our HDMI wall plates are made to support single gang installations. So you can install an HDMI wall plate over a current outlet location, or you can create a brand new outlet. For existing outlets the holes on the HDMI wall plate will match the holes that are in place on the existing low voltage mounting bracket that is already in place. So mounting the HDMI wall plate will take just screwing down the two screws that come with the plate. If you are creating a brand new outlet location you will have to cut a new whole and insert an Arlington LV1 low voltage mounting bracket into the wall. This will give you the bracket you need to successfully attach your HDMI wall plate to the wall. Regardless of your installation type, installing an HDMI wall plate is very easy.
Will using an HDMI wall plate disrupt my audio video signals?
No. The connectors on an HDMI wall plate are designed to pass your HDMI and other audio video cable signals right through the plate without hindering the quality or performance of your cables.
What if I need a 2 gang HDMI wall plate to support more connections?
If the single gang HDMI wall plate does not support the amount of connections you have in a particular area than your best option is to buy a standard double gang keystone wall plate and the audio video keystone inserts separately to build your own custom wall plate. There are numerous RCA, F, speaker, BNC, and HDMI keystone inserts available for you to snap into your own wall plate. So you can easily build your own wall plate that supports the connections you need at any outlet location.
