Description
This is a satellite connection point in bright teal, its front plate free of visible screws so the face reads as one clean square. The F-type connector accepts the threaded coaxial lead from a dish feed and terminates it tidily at the wall, ready for a short patch lead through to the receiver. The plate measures 88mm across, compact enough to sit quietly next to a television point or a data socket without crowding the wall behind a screen.
We would put this in a sitting room, snug or bedroom where the receiver lives under the television, and it does the same job in a home office set up for a second screen. It is meant for indoor rooms and for low voltage signal work only, which is the whole of its remit: the dish feed arrives, the lead goes on, nothing more is asked of it. It suits anyone who has grown tired of white plastic interrupting a painted wall, and the teal is strong enough to look like a decision rather than an accident.
The plate and body are moulded polycarbonate, a hard plastic that holds its colour and shrugs off the occasional knock from a vacuum cleaner. A dry cloth over the face keeps it looking fresh; household sprays and solvents can dull the moulding, so keep them well away from it, and never work at the connector with anything wet. It carries a ten year warranty. We like a plate this bright against a deep wall colour, where it reads as part of the scheme instead of something to be hidden behind the sideboard, and it sits comfortably alongside a coaxial socket or a data socket on the same stretch of wall if more than one service comes into the room. Coaxial lead not included.
