Siemon | LockIT™ Patch Cords
Siemon has launched their new LockIT™ Category 6 and Category 6A patch cords that have been designed to prevent unintended or unauthorised disconnections in a network.
The new cords are ideal for preventing disconnection of devices such as security cameras, point-of-sale terminals, self-service kiosks, digital displays and other devices in publicly accessible spaces like schools, retail stores, transportation hubs, hospitality venues and hospitals.
LockIT cords are also suited for protecting mission-critical network connections within data centres and telecommunications spaces. They are offered in both 26 and 28 AWG constructions, with 28 AWG offering a smaller diameter for better airflow and increased flexibility in high-density patching areas.
Key Features
Easy Installation
LockIT doesn’t require a
key to lock the cords in place,

Simple Unlocking
The extended length of
the LockIT key allows for
easier access to unlock cords
Robust Support
The ribbed boot design
allows for effective bend relief
ensuring high system performance
