I need to install 3 Ethernet ports in a room where I can't chase into the wall, I have to screw to the wall. I can find plenty of 3-port front plates but they all seem intended for chasing, I can't seem to find any matching plastic back boxes for them. Is there anywhere that sells what I want, or will I have to go with 2-port and 1-port boxes side by side?
Does anywhere sell 3-port Ethernet boxes that you screw to the wall, not chase into it?

Double surface back box , face plate , 3 modules and a blanking plate
you can get slim sockets such that 3 fit a single gang plate

What about a dual single back box?
You can get surface mount boxes in 4 port (one spare way, unterminated or more usefully terminated but not connected to a switch)...

Aha! I think this is what I want, as it's a bit lower-profile - I like the idea of the device cables plugging in vertically rather than sticking out horizontally. Cheers!
