I am installing an outlet in each bedroom upstairs for TV cable (virgin)
I have run cable from PC point using a splitter, up in to the loft, dropped the cable down to back boxes,
I intend to use flatplate outlets that are as the socket-outlets and switches.
The terminations on the plates are screw in, but if I use a straight connector does not seem to be enough room to fit plate back flush.
What alternatives do I have, the back boxes are all 25mm deep.
Can I get angled connectors?

The F connectors fit onto the front of the plate, so don't need to be angled.

Are you looking for some kind of connector to attach to the cable where it meets the BACK of the faceplate? Doesn't the cable just attach to screw terminals?
 
it does but the depth of the box means it may not fix flat, if I put a straight connector in.
I've got the plate in the loft will have a double check tomorrow.
