BT Openreach™ MK2 VDSL iPlate - Premium VDSL/ADSL Faceplate
PRODUCT CODE: BTVDSLMK2
![]() |
This faceplate provides the same benefits as the NTE5A bell wire filter with the ADDITION of VDSL/ADSL filtering.
Openreach VDSL/ADSL Interstitial faceplate (VDSL iPlate) filter for super fast VDSL services. Designed to plug into a standard NTE5 master socket it is easy to fit, no rewiring is required as the faceplate fits between the existing NTE5 front lower faceplate and the rear of the NTE5 socket. Centralised VDSL filtering is then provided negating the need for plug in microfilters with an RJ45/RJ11 socket providing the connection for a modem/router. Alternatively, provision is made for a hard wired connection to the modem via a two way IDC connector on the front (circled below). This faceplate is backwards compatible with all ADSL services. The Mk2 version features an RF filter for line stability (a filter for small Repetative Electrical Impulse Noise-REIN) & features differential and common mode filtering performances past 30Mhz. The Mk2 version has a less aggressive REIN filter than the Mk3, ideal for stable lines. When fitted to the NTE5A master socket BT refer to this setup as "Type 7: Service Specific Faceplate (SSFP) Infinity".

If you are replacing an ADSL faceplate you will need the original lower front of the NTE5 socket to fit onto the vDSL faceplate as pictured above. If you do not have this part you will need to purchase a complete NTE5A as they are not available separately.

Openreach™ MK4 VDSL Plate & NTE5C Master Socket
PRODUCT CODE: MK4VDSL
LATEST MK4 VDSL FACEPLATE & NTE5C MK2 SOCKET
Openreach Mk4 VDSL/ADSL filtered faceplate supplied WITH NTE5C master socket. This unit supersedes the previous NTE5A & VDSL MK3 setup, the design reverts back to the previous style of replacing the lower front half of the master socket (in this case the NEW NTE5C - also available separately). All new design requires no specialist tools to install - the faceplate clips to the master socket & all wiring connections are via cam lock tool-less IDC connectors. Centralised VDSL filtering is then provided negating the need for plug in microfilters with an RJ45/RJ11 socket providing the connection for a modem/router & a filtered BT socket for telephones. Alternatively, provision is made for a hard wired connection to the modem/router via a two way tool-less IDC cam lock connector on the rear (circled below). The latest Mk4 version retains an RF filter for line stability (a filter for small Repetitive Electrical Impulse Noise-REIN). Supplied as a COMPLETE unit - replaces the master socket with the latest NTE5C design (the original "telephone only" lower front plate of the NTE5C is NOT supplied in this pack as it is NOT required - filtered connections are now on the back plate of the NTE5C rather than the removable front lower plate, again using tool-less IDC cam lock connectors). Note this product requires a suitable single gang back box (surface or flush mount), if you are replacing an existing NTE5 variant this socket will fit onto the existing surface mouted back box. Now supplied with the Mk2 NTE5C master socket which can be flush mounted without any modification to the back box. This socket combination replaces all versions of the previous NTE5A & all previous versions of filtered faceplate (NTE2000, NTE2005, Mk1, Mk2 & Mk3 vDSL I-Plate). This faceplate will work with ADSL, ADSL2, VDSL, VDSL2 & G.fast.
Dimensions (L) 85mm x (W) 85mm x (H) 39mm.
