esata port on wall plate / keystone jack
Wednesday, May 19, 2010 by JavaFiend | Discussion: Personal Computing
I just put in a custom built-in desk in my house. I left a spot for a keystone wall plate. There are several ports I want to use, one being esata. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts on this? From what I can find so far, I will have to get a sata to esata cable/plate and then modify a blank keystone insert to fit it in, as I can't find anyone that makes this currently.
End result I am going for here is a plate on the side of my desk, with a usb port, ethernet port, 3.5mm audio port and esata port so I plug in any/all devices to connect to my pc/speakers which is house/enclosed in cabinets within the desk.
Anyone have any thoughts? Anyone done this?
Thanks.

I recently bought an internal card reader and while researching them I found several with most of those features/ports built in. Most are small in size,so the plate would have enough room for additional ports as needed. You would need extension cables of course but it's just a thought. Having one built into a desk would be sweet!
