You can order a wall mount  from sky for the gen 2 it's  not the same stand as the gen1

USB on Glass is only intended for the Sky Live camera.  Perhaps you mean the HDMI ports?

 

One option might be to add short HDMI extension cables before wall mounting.

Only 3 hdmi ports as the gen 1, you can order a wall mount  bracket  when you order  a tv it is £100 extra  or you could buy a tv bracket  from any retailer as i  said  before  the stand  on the gen 2 tv is different  to the gen 1, the stand on the gen 2 to is just  that, you assemble the gen 2 yourself  watch  the video  on YouTube  about  this there are no screws no upright  bar at the back of the gen 2 tv and no backplate or even a wall  mounting  template  that comes with  the gen 2 tv, the stand was redesign to do it yourself
