Optical Cable Corp. SMEK100 1 Port Kmj Surface Mount Wall Box

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. SMEK100 is a single-port surface mount wall box designed for low-voltage structured wiring installations. It accepts KMJ-style keystone inserts and is finished in an electrical ivory color for a clean, professional appearance on interior walls. This type of surface mount enclosure is used when in-wall routing is not practical, allowing installers to terminate and protect structured cabling at the wall face without cutting into drywall. It is sold as an individual unit and is suited for voice, data, or AV keystone jack terminations.

The SMEK100 is appropriate for residential and light commercial structured wiring work where surface-mounted cable management is required. Typical applications include office workstation drops, server room patch points, classroom data outlets, and retrofit installations where existing wall construction prevents recessed box mounting. The ivory finish blends with standard electrical trim in most interior environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a low-voltage technician or licensed electrician following local building codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down or de-energize any adjacent circuits before mounting near electrical infrastructure. Secure the box to the wall surface using appropriate fasteners for the substrate type, and seat the keystone insert firmly before snapping the faceplate into place.
