Where can I buy RJ45 wallplates/faceplates/outlets?

The only place that I've seen them is Maplin Electronics.

Can anyone post some other links that sell them please? (in the UK). I wouldn't mind getting the ones that are at a 45 degree angle.

Also, are they ALL compatible with CAT5... CAT5E... and CAT6 cables?

Screwfix sell a variety including a kit with interesting looking vertically down connection units.

Your local B&Q probably sell them as well.

Not used them coz I have only used second hand ones.

Would have though Cat 5/5E is standard - have you seen the rules for installing Cat 6?

I use Cable Universe. I've found the prices good and delivery was quick.

^ Thanks dude.

The wallplates on that site state 'CAT5E'. They don't mention whether they're compatible with CAT6.

Do you think they are? I've just brought 50m of CAT6 cable yesturday!

CPC, B&Q, Maplin, Screwfix, some of the smaller PC shops may do, or maybe able to order them in, theres eBay.
