BT Broadband Iplate

I-Plate logo

Important information on use:

Only homes with both a BT NTE5 type master telephone socket and extension wiring can benefit from use of an I-Plate (about 7 out of 10 UK homes).
Speed improvements of 1.5Mb per second are typical however line speed improvements cannot be guaranteed. This is because I-Plates work by filtering interference on the line so improvement in speed depends on the level of interference present, and this can vary greatly from line to line. Some users
have reported line speed improvements of up to 4Mb per second while others have not experienced any noticeable improvement. I-Plates also helpmake Broadband connections more stable so there can be Broadband performance benefits even when line speed is not noticeably increased.

You need to check your socket and compare it to the images below

This is the BTNE5 Socket - the only socket that will work with the I-Plate: 

The I-Plate only fits onto the BT NTE5 type master telephone socket shown to the right - Note the split face plate and BT Logo.

If your socket does not look like this - then the I-Plate will not fit and consequently you will receive no benefit.
