I was lazy and I merely screwed the faceplate to the wall, without a box
behind. I had a small hole into which the back of the socket fitted without
too much heaving. I had already secured the Cat 6 cable to the back of the
faceplate with a cable-binder. I’ve just received a testing kit to check my
connections; the connection works fine, but I now know that you can have a
connection that is not perfect, that there is some redundancy in both telephone
and Ethernet cable connections.
