Junction Boxes and Mud Rings
Verify that the connectivity design specifies the proper junction box size before
drywall is installed. Consider an oversized junction box to accommodate Cat 6A
cabling and bend radius requirements, box eliminators, or Leviton QuickPlate

Tempo 1-piece wallplates.
Surface-Mount Boxes
To maintain proper bend radius, consider exiting cable from modular
furniture pathways into a surface-mount box instead of directly to
a faceplate. Leviton’s extended depth four-port surface-mount box
works with most modular furniture and is an excellent solution for
larger Cat 6A bend radius requirements.
Cubicle furniture and walls often have restricted
wireways. Determine cable capacity before finalizing
specifications to verify there is adequate space for
cables and bend radius requirements. Consider mocking
up a cubicle. Most cubicle installations use surface
mount boxes or modular furniture faceplates, which help
oset the space restrictions of narrow cubicle walls.
