    Where in Galway would be the best place to get a couple of Cat5E keystone jacks and faceplates?

    I've never got those from them (only CAT5 cable I think) but call CT Electric, Sean Mulvoy Road - 091 745 300 - they might supply.

    Anyone suggest a good online source in Ireland or UK?

    The majority of searches return mostly US sites?

    I'm amazed at the lack of suppliers for standalone Keystone Jacks & surface mount boxes. I can't find anyone outside the U.S. and the particular items I'm after they won't ship to Ireland. One user has them on eBay but their shipping is ridiculous not to mention the possibility of extra customs charges at the door.

    I was in all of the local trade suppliers today and other than the standard shuttered faceplate & back box they never heard of what I'm after when I showed them pictures.


    This is what I'm after

    Keystone Surface Mount Box - Single Port

    Thanks for that link MBSnr & I see they have a single jack too.

    My only issues with this option is the quality of those is slightly less than the ones I'm after according to reviews & the price is way off the scale.

    I'm after 10 boxes and 10 jacks which works out @ Approx 70Eur delivered from Screwfix whereas the USA ones (which I've used in the past & was very happy with every aspect of them) offer free US delivery and come in @ $33 (Approx 25Eur).

    What I really need is an American cousin with Paypal :D

    Yeah bit pricey for the quantity I guess. You could use ParcelMotel and get them to you that way, saving £15 on delivery. 1st two stays in ParcelMotel are free!

    Actually I never even thought of ParcelMotel...

    Pity they don't have International as an option.

    Appreciate your suggestions MBSnr ;)

    maybe a bit late but you could try Anixter. They usually just deal with Trade but they may be able to sort you out.
