Dumb question, I ran my cables and I'm ready to put this in the wall, but what exactly am I screwing this into? Sounds like I need some kind of box.

Hi. Yes, you need an ordinary and suitable electrical box inside the wall, you can buy it at HomeDepot or Lowes. This is only the faceplate, also you need the keystone inserts.

You need the f-pin coax moduleIn the Amazon search put "wall plate module". The make different types of modules so can mix audio, video, and data signals. I believe all brands will fit in the wall plate. If you are in a hurry Lowes and Home Depot stock those

You can use a regular electrical box or since it is low voltage you can buy a metal or plastic frame that fits in a cut out in the wall. These cost under $2.00 each and are available at Home Depot, Lowes or from your local hardware store.

What I did was make a hole, pull the cable through, marked my screw holes on the wall, drilled two holes, pounded in those plastic drywall inserts, then screw the two screws into those. They're not going anywhere and the plastic inserts keep the screw holes from getting worn and torn.

If you are coming out of sheet rock (dry wall) then there are these brackets that you can purchase from Amazon as well that work nicely. I used a spiral cut blade on a Dremmel tool to make the opening. Arlington LV1-1CS Single Gang Low Voltage Mounting Bracket Device

A regular electrical box used for outlets or switches. I recommend the deep one with rotating arms to hold the box securely to the sheetrock. Cut a rectangular hole in the wall, place box in the wall, and turn arms to tighten against the wall. Beware of your vertical studs in the wall for clearance.

Your outlet should be right next to a wall stud. You could mount this onto the stud and could position it so that it is in front of the outlet. I don't think there is a secure way to mount it over the outlet itself though.

I'm pretty sure, though i'm not a professional installer or anything. If the space below is big enough, but not too big, i think the hardest problem will be making an adapter to fork the cables to get both sets of wires plugged in.

There are two ways to do this. You can get a trac that is metal or plastic to run the cables threw or you can make a hole in the wall to fish them threw. Tere are all kinds of cover plates and boxes to help you with this

As Hugo said, it's just keyholes, though mine came with the screws for the wall.Keep in mind that if you mount it, the top is flush with the wall, so your cables will only be able to run out of the bottom. Also, mounting it makes two of the HDMI ports unusable without right-angle HDMI plugs. You can get adapters pretty cheap on Amazon, but make sure you get the 90-degree ones and not the 270-degree ones.

I had a professional come and install in my absence, he had to cut a box behind the TV in the wall for $K converter and he fixed it with a mount he suggested, also I had a sound bar installed just below the screen. I wish I had run an Ethernet wire from my router, even though I mage to trouble shoot wireless connection by using the Media part the WIFI spectrum at 5K htz.

It should just screw into the co-axial cable plug. Same as where the cable hooks in.

The problem with any wall mounted tv is "how do you hide the cables". The cables need to be routed from behind the TV, through the wall, and down to an exiting point below the tv as close to the floor as possible. The HDMI cable and the tv power cable need to be routed this way, unless the wall was previously prepared with a 115 VAC power receptacle at the mounting point of the tv. I assume that the cable for the direct tv box is already at floor level. In my case, I put a small table below the tv and mounted the box on it. I ran the HDMI cable and an extension cord (for tv power) through the wall from the floor up to the hole behind the tv. Fishing cables through the walls is not that difficult, but you may want to get an electrician or home theater expert to help you. Hope this helps some.

Sorry Marc I can't help with your question as mine's was fine. I would suggest seeing if the wall plate fits the metal part that hides the cables and holds the glass shelves and if the screw holes line up. If it does run with it

We also have cable, we had to have a small cable connector box in the cabinet above. You might need to call your cable co to ask them if this is what you need also...

It wouldn't be elegant but one 'could' string a cable through the holes. They are big enough to take a 1/4" cable. That said, if I wanted to use a cable I'd drill a hole in two sides near the bottom of a corner so the cable could go through and wrap around something outside the box. Mine is screwed to a shelf.

I have a power cable "16 gauge " and a USB cable in the center. I split / cut one side of the wire mold and add a Cat5 cable. I hope this help. Good Luck..

I see your concern regarding the perfect placement of the receiver. I was worried too. However, I didn't have any problems with the placement of the receiver. My cable box is in a cabinet behind CLOSED cabinet doors. The receiver is approximately 10 feet away on a shelf near the TV. I just sat it up there and it worked on the first try. We even picked it up and moved it to the other end of the shelf and still no trouble at all.

The existing wires come directly out of an encapsulated power supply in the box. What I did was open the box and attach the existing wires to an inserted Romax wire using wire nuts. There is plenty of room in the box for the wire nuts. I sealed the hole with a little calk.

Your best option would be to measure your intended install space and compare it to the size of this box. Make sure to take into account space required for wiring.
