The AV:Link Multimedia Wallplate with 8K HDMI and USB4 Type-C sockets is a modern single gang AV connection plate designed for clean, high-performance multimedia installations. Combining an 8K HDMI socket with an ultra-fast USB4 Type-C connection, it provides a neat and convenient user-facing input point for meeting rooms, classrooms, offices, training spaces, lecture rooms, media walls, home cinema systems and professional AV presentation areas.
This wallplate is ideal where modern devices need to connect to installed AV equipment without leaving loose cables visible around the room. It allows HDMI and USB-C connections to be presented in one tidy faceplate, helping create a more professional installation while keeping the working environment clearer and easier to use. It is suitable for domestic, commercial and educational applications, making it a flexible choice for AV installers, electricians, facilities teams and system integrators.
The HDMI socket supports a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320 at 120Hz, with a maximum HDMI bandwidth of 48Gbps. This makes the wallplate suitable for high-bandwidth HDMI applications where compatible equipment and cabling are used. It is well suited to 8K displays, high-refresh-rate 4K screens, gaming systems, professional presentation equipment, media sources and future-ready AV infrastructure. For installations where display technology may be upgraded over time, using an 8K-capable wallplate can help provide additional system headroom compared with older HDMI connection plates.
The USB Type-C connection supports USB4 with data transfer capability up to 40Gbps. USB4 is particularly useful in modern AV and IT environments where users may need fast data transfer, device connectivity or a more current connection standard than conventional USB-A. The USB-C connection is also listed with PD and QC compatibility, which makes the wallplate more relevant for modern devices that support power delivery or quick charge functions through USB-C. This can be valuable in workspaces where laptops, tablets and other portable devices are regularly connected.
For meeting rooms and boardrooms, this wallplate can provide a clean connection point at a table position, presentation wall, display location or equipment panel. Users can connect a laptop or media source using HDMI while also having access to USB-C connectivity from the same faceplate. This helps simplify the room experience and reduces the reliance on loose cables, adaptors or temporary leads that can often be misplaced or left untidy.
In education environments, the wallplate is suitable for classrooms, lecture rooms and training spaces where teachers, presenters or visiting users need easy access to modern AV connections. It can be used alongside interactive displays, projectors, switching equipment or wall-mounted screens as part of a structured AV system. The single gang format keeps the connection point compact, while still offering two highly useful multimedia connections.
For residential installations, the wallplate can be used in media rooms, gaming spaces, home offices or wall-mounted display setups where a clean connection point is needed. It allows cables to be routed discreetly behind walls or furniture, reducing visible cable clutter and improving the finished appearance of the room. This is particularly useful for wall-mounted TVs, media desks or multi-use spaces where equipment may change over time.
The wallplate is supplied as a standard 1-gang faceplate with sockets, cables and connectors. Rear cables and connections are included to help simplify installation and reduce the need for rewiring, while fixing screws are also provided. This can make the product faster to install than building a connection point from separate modular components, particularly in commercial or education projects where multiple rooms may require the same connection layout.
The product measures 85 x 85 x 210mm and weighs 78g. As with any high-bandwidth HDMI or USB-C installation, the full system performance will depend on the connected source device, display, cable quality, cable length and installation method. When working with 8K, 48Gbps HDMI or USB4 signals, suitable high-quality cabling and adequate back box depth should be considered during specification to maintain reliable performance.
For installers looking for a compact, modern and professional AV input plate, the AV:Link Multimedia Wallplate with 8K HDMI and USB4 Type-C sockets provides a strong solution. With 48Gbps HDMI support, 8K resolution capability, USB4 Type-C connectivity, PD/QC compatibility and supplied rear cables, it is well suited to clean AV installations where modern multimedia access is required.
