Hiding the One Connect Box: A Flush Mount Guide

The One Connect Box is what makes the Frame TV magical — and what ruins the look if it's left visible. Here's how to hide it.

If you're planning in-wall wire concealment for a Samsung Frame TV, the central challenge is the One Connect Box. It's the brain — all power, HDMI, and antenna inputs route through it via a single near-invisible cable to the TV. Here's how Atlanta pros hide it.

Hiding Method 1: Closed Media Cabinet

Most common. Place the box in a vented cabinet below or beside the TV. Use IR/RF remote extenders so remotes still work.

Method 2: Decorative Niche

Cut a recessed wall niche near the TV with a hinged or magnetic door. Highly clean look in modern builds.

Method 3: Adjacent Closet or Basement

Use an HDMI-over-Ethernet extender to relocate the box to a different room entirely. Only the One Connect cable runs through the wall to the TV.

Method 4: In-Wall Datacomm Box

For new construction, recess the box into the wall behind a vented plate. Requires planning during framing.

Cable Routing

The One Connect cable is rated for in-wall use. Pair with a recessed outlet behind the TV for complete cable invisibility.

Pricing

  • Frame TV install + One Connect concealment: $299–$549
  • With recessed outlet + HDMI extender: $499–$799
