BEST ANSWER:This is the size of a standard outlet (wall switch/plug) I would say probably 10 or so standard cat5 cables without fittings would comftably fit (if they are premade with connectors on them maybe 6-7) I'm sure you can squeeze more depending on thickness and quality of cat5

I found this very product at a fraction of the cost at MONOPRICE. Other retailers are selling for incredibly much more.. A great product at a super price! Thank you MONOPRICE!
Great product but with flaws. Includes mud ring built in but the pass through is a bit small for all types of cords with ferrites. Also plastic breaks very easily. Installed 2 and both units are deformed or broken after install. Would buy again but be very careful when installing.
PROS: Great product, good coloring, easy install, good directions, don't need to buy an additional mud ring to install, everything is built in.
CONS: brittle plastic. Tabs to attach unit to wall broke off with multiple installed units. Tabs that connect the two parts together broke off too.
Hole is too small in back to pass through cords with ferrites on them. Back portion is removable but install is less seamless without the back piece.
During the installation of these I had to remove the back cover to feed the wires through the first one came off perfect but the second one cracked when I was taking it off. Once I had the wires through installing it into the ways was easy but when I screwed it in the clamps didn't spin to there up right position and one ended up breaking off completely while the other got bent, I ended up throwing both of them away. Mono price makes great products but these are an exception...
The product is great, but be very cautious of the thickness of wall material, 1/2" or less, had a very hard time and had to modify to fit into a plaster wall approx. 3/4". I knew this could be an issue but preferred the thinner pass-through opening, just didn't do my homework and notice in the description that the overall depth was 3/4" less than the non-slim fit.
PROS: Looks Great, fairly well made
CONS: Be cautious of over-tightening the dogs, strip and break fairly easily.
These wall plates are excellent when you have several cables of various types that need to be routed through a wall. They are easy to install and look great. I used mine to route KVM cables.
PROS: These plates are self-mounting. Just cut your slot then screw down the brackets to hold in place.
CONS: Not really a con, but a caution. I can be difficult or impossible to route some VGA connectors through the slot on this slim fit unit. The same unit comes with a larger slot that accommodates almost any size connector with ease.
VERY difficult to route a couple of my HDMI cables through, mostly due to the ferrite cores, but was able to manage after some elbow grease, would have been great if I could clip on the back myself... was a bit scared to try to take it apart as i didnt want to break it
PROS: Slim and very clean looking
CONS: came preassembled - the only reason it lost a star
