USB socket - How to make a USB socket - extension cord (not a charger)?

Where can I buy a flush-mounted USB socket module that works as a normal USB extension, and is there also a flush-mounted minijack socket available?

Yes—look for a modular flush-mounted USB socket insert rather than a charger; Karlik makes these, and Ospel AS is mentioned as a cheaper series. [#16576417] Ospel AS also has USB and HDMI modules, and one reply notes that some specialized sockets can be ordered on request. [#16576436] [#16576446] For a minijack socket, commercial options seem much rarer; one user says Legrand Mosaic and similar systems exist, but square frames appear to max out at three modules. [#16584599] If you need four standard 45x45 mm modules in one frame, a DIY approach was suggested: use a blank decorative frame, mount the sockets to a metal plate or similar backing, and cut the openings yourself.

    Hi,
    In order to supply the future TV on the pole in the middle of the living room, today I led to it under the floor USB 3.0, 2x HDMI, 2x RJ45, antenna cable, tosilinka, chinche, minijack, 3x speaker cable and three-core cables to mount the socket:
    USB socket - How to make a USB socket - extension cord (not a charger)?
    In the wall I put 4 socket boxes: 230V, HDMI, RJ45, USB and minijack

    I have a problem finding a USB socket that is not a charger but an ordinary extension cord and I have not seen a minijack socket anywhere at all.
    Do you know where I can buy it?

    Enter the password "usb socket flush-mounted" a lot of this (not the chargers of the sockets themselves), eg karlik has this.

    Thanks, I'm looking for a series at a price less than PLN 540, which has a frame for four sockets at low prices.

    "Strong Thing", at least in terms of price ;) ) Personally, I used to play DIY once: buying a frame with a "virgin", decorative lid and buying sockets that could be mounted to a piece of sheet metal under this "lid". There was some work to carve the holes but I think it's worth it. If only because after a few weeks of frequent use of the minijack by teenagers, I had to change the minijack socket to a new one. And in this equipment for PLN 540 - I do not know if it is that simple.

    Gentlemen, the prices of these sockets are a drama, I will not spend PLN 500 on a frame and a few cheap cables in matching plastics ...

    I think I will buy short RCA, HDMI, 3.5 mm jack extension cords, plastic plugs and I'll fit and stick them myself ...

    The AS series from Ospel seems to be the cheapest, but they don't offer jack input.

    great, the modules are relatively cheap but the frame is made of glass and costs PLN 200. Total PLN 441 for four sockets, an exaggeration.
    I'm looking for a frame for 4 OOOO sockets with a 45x45 mm square hole.

    LeGrand Mosaic but square ones are probably triple max.
    And it does not arrange all the time? Only the cans of "boats" are needed for those without breaks.

    The other manufacturer looks the same.

    I have already laid a new floor, I do not want to hammer or pull the smoothed cable pipe out of the wall. I need a frame for 4 standard boxes as in the picture.
