I am trying to find a saftey cover for the cable outlet, not the wire or an electrical outlet, but something similar to cover the plate (with the cable cord in it.)Plese help- (not any found at babies r us)

Covering Cable Outlets

For safety, if the cable cord is still plugged in, use electrical table wrapped around the cord and the wall to prevent disconnection.

For an unused cable outlet, you can remove the cable cover plate and removed the cable box if needed. You can also try using electrical tape to securely cover the plate and the outlet to keep children's fingers out of them.

You can use a weatherproof plate, which covers an entire outlet.
