Wirepath WP-SMB1-LA Surface Mount Box 1-port

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-SMB1-LA is a single-port surface mount box designed for low-profile wall installations in structured wiring and low-voltage cabling applications. It provides a clean, finished housing for a single keystone-style module, allowing installers to terminate and protect data or video connections at any surface-mounted location. Suitable for residential and light commercial work, this box is the practical choice when in-wall rough-in is not an option and a flush, professional appearance is still required.

The WP-SMB1-LA is used in video distribution and data networking installations where cables must be terminated at a surface rather than a recessed outlet. Typical scenarios include finished concrete or masonry walls, retrofit cable runs, and locations where wall depth is insufficient for a standard electrical box. It accepts one keystone insert, making it compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, coaxial, HDMI, and other keystone-format modules depending on what the installer populates it with.

Key Features

• Single-port configuration for compact, low-profile installations
• Surface mount design eliminates the need for in-wall rough-in
• Accepts standard keystone modules for data, video, or multimedia terminations
• Low-profile housing keeps wall protrusion to a minimum
• Sold individually, one unit per package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style surface mount housing compatible with standard single-port keystone module installations in residential and light commercial low-voltage structured wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or structured wiring professionals. De-energize any nearby circuits before running cable and follow local low-voltage wiring codes. Mount the box to the wall surface using appropriate fasteners for the wall material, then seat the keystone module and route cable neatly before securing the cover. Do not exceed the box's single-port capacity by forcing non-standard modules into the opening.
