The faceplate sits 7mm proud of the wall and is moulded from thermoset resin with an anti-microbial surface treatment tested to ISO 22196:2011, making it suitable for communal areas, care homes, offices and residential installations where hygiene matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as the first connection point between an incoming BT telephone line and the internal wiring network, the master socket provides the interface where the external service provider's line terminates and internal extensions or devices connect. The socket fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and uses screw terminals concealed behind removable screw cap covers, allowing clean access for line testing and fault diagnosis without dismantling the entire faceplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rounded-edge profile softens the visual impact compared to traditional square-edged plates, and the matt white finish provides a neutral backdrop that works across both modern and traditional residential and commercial settings. The 86mm square footprint matches standard UK switch and socket plate dimensions, allowing coordinated installations when used alongside other Knightsbridge accessories. The IP20 rating confirms suitability for dry indoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\" style=\"width: 100.036%; height: 254.8px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9738%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e86mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9738%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e86mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9738%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e20.7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9738%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9738%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e13.7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.5665%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eMin.

All internal telephone extensions and devices connect downstream from this master socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat back box depth is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA minimum 25mm back box depth is needed for safe installation. The faceplate projects 7mm from the wall surface once fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are IDC terminals?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIDC stands for insulation displacement connection. The terminals have small blades that pierce the cable insulation when the wire is inserted, making contact with the copper conductor without needing to strip the cable first. This simplifies installation and reduces the risk of wiring errors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the anti-microbial treatment permanent?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe anti-microbial properties are built into the thermoset resin material itself rather than applied as a surface coating, so they remain effective throughout the life of the product. The treatment has been independently tested to ISO 22196:2011.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knightsbridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51392334168331,"sku":"CU7300","price":3.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/135238_063ef164-d28e-433d-ac05-5f62d57a0549.jpg?v=1747073985","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/bt-master-telephone-socket-matt-white-rounded-edge","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
