talksr Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 I have wasted sooo much time trying to find these plastic spacers for network ports. Does anyone know what they are called or where I can find them? Trying to tidy up some of our network wall ports. Some have been installed as two points, but one has been removed leaving a space in the plug. Would be really keen to find out what these are called so I can get some ordered in.
caffrey Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 These ? https://www.kenable.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=4505 doubles too https://www.kenable.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=4802 1
jthompson Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) Blanks. We get ours from Comms Express (https://www.comms-express.com/categories/excel-faceplate-and-faceplate-blanks/). They'll need to be suitable for whatever brand faceplates you've got, as the clip arrangements are not standardised. We've always gone for Excel brand, and get Excel ethernet modules and blanks to go in them. EDIT: unless the are standardised and I just didn't know. I've come across 3 or 4 different clip arrangements here, so picked a brand and stuck with it. Edited July 31, 2017 by jthompson 1
dry Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) Aren't they just blanking modules? I buy mine from Screwfix. I've used half size ones before but the plates in your picture look like they may even be 1/4 size- didn't know that size existed to be honest! http://www.screwfix.com/p/lap-blanking-module-white/90979 Correction- the ones in your picture look more like 1/2 size, not 1/4 Edited July 31, 2017 by dry 1
talksr Posted July 31, 2017 Author Posted July 31, 2017 Thank you thank you thank you! I can't tell you how much time I have wasted trying to work out what these are called!
XiJ Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Ha ha, yes blanking plates to me. Looks from the pic like there's a 1/2 and so and 4 x 1/4
snagrat Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Personally I think you will be better of replacing the whole thing with a double socket blanking plate. Look a lot nicer rather than lots of small blanking pieces 1
MatthewL Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Blanking plates, I tend to use Excel or MK, I think the Excel blanking plates did fit the MK but don't quote me on it, it was a few years ago. But Comms Express is best place.
