Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of these port blockers?

The Lindy RJ45 Port Blockers are designed to physically secure unused Ethernet ports, preventing unauthorized devices from being connected and safeguarding the network.

How many port blockers are included in this pack?

This pack includes 20 RJ45 Port Blockers in Green.

Do I need a special tool to install or remove the blockers?

Installation is tool-free. Removal requires the matching color-coded key (Green in this case) which is designed to operate without special tools.

Are the keys for different colored blockers interchangeable?

No, the keys are color-specific. A green key will only work with green blockers, and vice-versa for other available colors.

What material are the port blockers made of?

They are made of durable Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic.

What is the warranty period for these port blockers?

The product comes with a 2-year warranty period.

Can these blockers prevent determined hackers?

These blockers serve as a physical and visual deterrent. They are not designed to prevent a determined attacker with the intent and tools to physically access a port.

What are the dimensions of a single port blocker?

Each port blocker measures 20 mm (Width) x 74.5 mm (Depth) x 5.9 mm (Height).

Troubleshooting

Blocker won't insert fully

Ensure the RJ45 port is clean and free of debris. Verify that it is a standard RJ45 port and not obstructed.

Blocker is difficult to remove

Ensure you are using the correct color-coded key (Green). Insert the key fully until you hear a click, then gently pull the blocker out. Avoid excessive force.

Key does not release blocker

Confirm the key is the correct matching color for the blocker. Ensure the key is fully inserted into the blocker mechanism. If the key or blocker appears damaged, you may need to replace it.

Blocker falls out easily

The port or blocker may be damaged. Try a different blocker or port. Ensure the blocker is fully latched.

  • Compatible Ports/Slots: RJ-45
  • Material: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)
