I'm doing some work for a mate and he's buying a PS3 shortly, now i've just replaced all the socket fronts, switches etc... And also had tidied up all the random wires coming thru the walls with patresses and their associated fronts, BT etc...

Now he wants the PS3 hard wired up to the internet via the ethernet connection (the modem and router are in another room) as his wireless connection drops if you breathe to heavy

Does anyone know if you can get a socket front which has female BT & Ethernet plugs? So he can plug the Sky box and the PS3 in to it?

Cheers for any help in advance

 

You can get modular socket faces from MK which allow you to put a modular socket into the modular face. I have 2 ethernet and 2 phone fittings using Modular stuff.

 

yeah MK do them thats what I use

Eddison or CEF should have them in

 

Ah wicked lads, i'll get down the wholesalers.... again

 

Oh and what is the module i'll need for the ethernet? Is it Cat5e?

 

Here are the MK Part numbers you will need.

MK Dual Module Facia White - K24182 WHI
MK RJ45 UTP CAT5 Ethernet Socket Module - K5844 WHI
MK BT Master Outlet Socket Module - K5820 WHI

The dual module will fit a single patress box, of you can go for a 4 module facia (K24184 WHI) which fits a standard twin patress box and allows you to have 4 modules of your choice


Hope that is helpfull for you

 

Ah nice one Gracie!! Cheers

 

Nooo problem at all.

 

Did you get those part numbers from the web mate? Any chance of a link?
