I noticed my sons room had a transparent phone socket when I took the front faceplate off. Took it out and it looked different to what I'm used to seeing



What I expected to see is this:



Is there any difference or relevance to the different sockets?

gished: Thanks.

I thought it may have been the case. The house was built about 12 years ago so I'm a bit puzzled why they used the transparent socket in only one room.


the top one is a single mech PDL faceplate with a BT Jkpt mech insurt ( there are multipule inserts available for differnt aplications, including adaptors for keystone RJ45 sockets ) - I suspect that this one might have been part of the original set up and the 'convertional' all-in-one was installed later as a replacement (for along time this was all 'telecom' used for spares - in reality there is no 'electrical' difference
