Cable Matters2-Pack 1-Gang Wall Cable Pass Through, Brush Wall Plate with Bracket, InWall Cable Management Solution for Home and Office, White

I needed to install a cable pass-through in my wall to easily hardwire my internet between two rooms. While there are more permanent solutions out there, I was looking for something quick and simple that would work for my apartment. If I move, I'll just patch up the hole. I was surprised to see that Cable Matters makes wall plates, as I had only known them for their cables. I've always had great experiences with their Ethernet and XLR cords, so when I saw this 2-pack brush wall plate, I didn't hesitate to get it. It was incredibly easy to install, and all the included hardware was of good quality. For a fast, straightforward solution, this was perfect. I couldn’t be happier with the result!

Just what I was expecting!

I got this to "hide the wires" from my entertainment center below to my mounted TV above. Once I cut the hole in the wall, the brackets screwed in firmly and the plastic seems sturdy enough to hold for a long time. Passing the wires through the brush plate was smooth and didn't cause any issues with the bristles or my cables. The covers screwed right over the top and stayed straight once tightened. This is pretty straight forward and works well, so if you need this be confident in the product.

This review is for the Cable Matters 2-Pack 1-Gang Wall Cable Pass Through. These are good for existing construction. Whether you are cutting a new hole or reusing an existing one, this will fit it and lock in behind existing drywall so you don't need to mount a box. I used it to pass through wires that don't have standard mountable plug connectors so it's a good way to feed cable and still have things looking neat. Not a bad deal for $4.50 each.

Good quality brush plates, very easy to get cables though the wall. I like using these when keystones on a plate can't be used. Takes about 5 minutes to install per plate, I take my time and use a blade rather than an electric tool since I've had scary experiences almost cutting electrical cable by being careless. Good quality plates and brackets!

Great little improvement. Super easy to set up. They’re just covers for an empty spot but they help do the hidden cords thing which is such an upgrade for the room. The bristles are good and don’t seem to mess up or bend out of place.

I already had some low voltage boxes installed and was hoping that I could use these to simply slap on top of them to finish the task of using an HDMI cable from my main television to a TV on our patio. Unfortunately, the brush plate is designed to set into the box a bit and my outlet box was about an 1/8 inch to small for the plate to fit into my boxes. While I probably could have trimmed them to fit, the boxes were "old work design" and it was easier to just remove them and put the included brackets in. The brushes at the gate are soft so they don't totally close around the wire very tightly as the photo shows but it still provides a nice finished look.

Super easy to install to get a professorial finished look after installation. No need for a junction box just cut the drywall and install it like an old work box directly. Looks a lot better than a hole in the wall with a cable shoved through it. Much easier to get set up than keystone plates and does the same job in the end.
