The LockIT LC optical fibre adapter lock has joined 697 Siemon's LockIT line of secure network connectivity. This new, tamper-proof adapter lock protects against unauthorised access to unused LC ports and can be used to secure nearly any LC optical fibre-based network infrastructure. The system is designed to provide physical layer security without adding complexity or impacting overall functionality and density.

The LockIT adapter lock snaps securely into any industry-standard LC port, blocking cord access and preventing tampering. Removable only with a specially designed key, the lock fits flush within the port, providing full access to adjacent ports regardless of density, and it is brightly coloured to allow network personnel to quickly identify locked ports. These new secure components are system- and cabling performance-independent, allowing them to secure any active equipment LC port, or passive LC patching, plug and play or work area port.
