Description
A screwless plate in champagne gold, carrying one F-type screw connector for a satellite feed. The front plate clips over a separate base, so the face stays clean with no fixing screws breaking the line of it. The plate is square, 88mm on each side, which is the standard single size, and the gold has a soft warm tone rather than a bright polish. It handles signal only, not mains power, so it sits alongside your other plates as part of the same run of finishes without doing any of the heavy lifting.
We would put this behind a television in a sitting room, in a bedroom where a second set is fed from the dish, or on a media wall where the plates are on show and mismatched white plastic would spoil the look. It suits anyone finishing a room in warm metallics who wants the small details to agree with the door furniture and light fittings. This is one we reach for when a customer has already chosen gold switches and needs the television side of the wall to match. Indoor rooms only.
The plate and its connector housing are moulded polycarbonate in a champagne gold colour, which keeps the weight down and avoids any risk of tarnish on the visible face. To keep it looking right, wipe the front over with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight away; solvents, cream cleaners and anything gritty will scuff the gold and there is no bringing it back. Keep polish meant for real metal away from it. It carries a ten year warranty. Grouped with matching plates along one wall, the effect is quiet and consistent, and because the same 88mm footprint is used across single plates the spacing stays even wherever you place it.

Frequently Asked
What sort of connector is on the front?
A single F-type screw connector, the standard fitting for satellite coaxial cable from a dish and LNB.
What size is the plate?
It is a standard single plate, 88mm by 88mm, with a 25mm depth behind the face.
Is this the same as an aerial socket?
No. An aerial socket takes a coaxial plug for terrestrial television, while this takes the screw-on F-type connector used for satellite.
What is the plate made from?
Moulded polycarbonate finished in champagne gold, weighing around 0.065kg.
Can it be used in a bathroom or outdoors?
No, it is for indoor use in dry rooms only, on data and signal circuits.
How should I clean it?
A barely damp cloth, dried off at once. Avoid solvents, abrasive creams and metal polishes, as these will mark the gold finish permanently.
