I wanted to re-do my old Google Nest Wifi Pro 6 wall mounts because we got ethernet run in our house, and there was now an opportunity to mount them to ethernet jack outlets.
Just a quick project/prototype, but it worked out well enough that maybe others would find it useful.
Link to a google doc outlining some more info, including build log.
Quick YouTube demo of the retention/latching/locking mechanism.
A lot of things I'd do differently in the future, but for today, it's doing the job. Enjoy!
Oh, I included the STEP file of the baseplate mount, in case someone wants to adapt it for other mounting situations.
Post-deployment notes
I just set six of these up, and the only issue I ran into was getting the top cap aligned for the final latching install. When I was on a ladder and looking down onto the top, no problem, but getting the top cap aligned from underneath was very tedious.
Next time...
Also, the led diffuser is nigh-transparent in Prusament Galaxy Silver, and nigh-opaque in Galaxy Black. So, experiment with different filaments. I didn't go the route of making it more complicated, included the two versions I printed out.
Features
Securely mounts to a standard wall socket
Tool-less/screw-less install (re-uses wall socket plate’s screws)
Hides ethernet cable
DC power cable routing out bottom or top (why not PoE or something? just chose to be ok with cables vs. spending money, that's it)
Looks not great, but not terrible
You can still see the QR code and model/serial number stuff when it’s mounted (used during setup)
Fun wifi symbol inlay
Optional led blocker
Printing notes
See pics for where supports are needed on the main body. The top and bottom caps, locking handle, and wall plate do not need supports at all.
I put a bunch of intentionality into both removing the need for supports as well as reducing cooling stresses (to deal w. warping on the build plate).
The linked google doc above has a lot more info on printing process.
