Abstract

A universal pathway system for structured cabling built in-wall prior to drywall installation to allow for management of cables and future expansion of network or electrical drops allowing for high fiber count. The in-wall Universal Pathway system includes a junction box which is unique in its overall size and shape to accommodate a plurality of cables. The expandable/retractable flexible conduit is oversized to allow for a plurality of cables and future expansion of network needs. There is an improvement to a mud ring to accommodate the dynamic needs of the scope of work. Additionally, there is an improvement to a cover plate which can have multiple designs to accommodate the dynamic needs of the scope of work. Assembly of the system is simple and can be adjusted as the overall system is not limited in its placement as it is adjustable for various locations and height and depth of walls.
