Low-Cost Access Control: Protect Unused Outlets with LockIT Systems

Siemon’s LockIT™ line of secure network connectivity solutions had an unlikely beginning; yet the benefits go far beyond preventing device disconnections and protecting outlet damage from basic tampering.

Protecting Potential Weak-Spots

Unprotected network outlets in any exposed space often pose as a potential network security weak-spot. Whatever type of facility you manage, it's important to be aware of sophisticated criminals who routinely gain network access to steal information or carry out cyberattacks. By utilizing trusted Siemon solutions like LockIT, your facility can better fend off intruders from installing malicious viruses and ransomware. 

How? By simply blocking your physical port connections, a LockIT system can deliver an inexpensive, yet effective deterrent to unauthorized network access. Benefits also extend into the data center and other centralized telecom spaces by preventing accidental disconnection of mission critical patching, switch, and server ports. Meet your low-cost “tag out” access control solution.

Siemon’s LockIT patch cords, for example, are ideal for preventing disconnections from critical end devices like:

• Security Cameras

• Point-of-Sale Terminals

• Self-Service Kiosks

• Digital Displays

With more connected devices in the industry than ever before, there’s higher chance of one being accidentally or intentionally disconnected. Intentional disconnections like surveillance cameras can hit safety and security, even non-critical applications can still cause plenty of inconvenience for both users and IT staff when disconnected.
