FAQs

What type of connections does this socket have?

This socket features two Gang Male F-Type connectors, specifically designed for satellite television coaxial cables.

Can I use this socket for my internet connection?

This socket is designed exclusively for satellite television signals using F-type connectors. It is not suitable for standard internet or power connections.

Is this socket suitable for any wall?

It is designed to fit standard UK back boxes. Ensure you have a compatible back box installed in your wall for a seamless fit.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Clean the surface gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning chemicals as they may damage the finish.

Does the screwless plate require any special tools to install?

No, the screwless plate is designed to click into place easily by hand after the main unit is secured. Ensure the unit is firmly attached to the back box first.

What material is the socket made from?

The socket is constructed from high-quality, fireproof ABS plastic for durability and safety.

Will the matt black color fade in sunlight?

The matt black finish is designed to maintain its elegant appearance and color even in direct sunlight, resisting fading.

Troubleshooting

No satellite signal after installation

Verify that the coaxial cables are securely connected to the F-type sockets on the Trendi Switch. Ensure the power supply to the satellite receiver is on and that the satellite dish is correctly aligned. Double-check that the correct back box and wiring were used during installation.

Faceplate is difficult to attach or remove

Ensure the back frame is properly seated in the back box and that no wires are obstructing the faceplate. Apply gentle, even pressure when clicking the screwless faceplate into place or releasing it.

The finish appears to be fading or changing color

Although designed to be sunlight-resistant, avoid prolonged direct exposure to harsh elements. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. If significant fading occurs, contact customer support.
