Network RJ45 port blocker ShiverPeaks BS08-01032, yellow, pack of 10 locks with 1 key

ShiverPeaks BS08-01032 RJ45 port blocker is a set of ten yellow physical locks supplied with a single master key. Designed to fit standard RJ45 Ethernet sockets, each blocker prevents insertion of network cables and limits unauthorized physical access to wired networks. The bright yellow colour makes blocked ports easily visible in racks, wall plates and device panels without affecting normal connector alignment.

Advantages

The port blockers provide a straightforward mechanical barrier that reduces the risk of unauthorized connections, accidental network access and casual tampering. Constructed from rigid plastic, they are lightweight and simple to insert or remove with the supplied key. The uniform colour aids quick visual auditing of secured ports in multi-port environments, and the pack format supplies multiple blockers for use across several devices or locations.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Securing Ethernet ports in offices and conference rooms
• Protecting network sockets in classrooms and public spaces
• Temporarily blocking unused ports in server rooms and data closets
• Preventing unauthorized plug-in access on desktop PCs, point-of-sale and kiosks

Key specifications

• Quantity: 10 port blockers and 1 removable key
• Compatible connector type: standard RJ45 Ethernet sockets
• Material: rigid plastic body designed for repeated insertion/removal
• Colour: yellow for high visibility
• Form factor: compact insert sized for wall plates, patch panels and device ports

How to use

Insert a blocker into an RJ45 port by aligning it with the connector opening and pushing gently until it seats flush. To remove, insert the supplied key into the blocker and pull outward while maintaining alignment. Use one key to operate all blockers in the pack; keep the key stored securely when not in use. Do not force the blocker into damaged or non-standard sockets to avoid deformation.

Recommendations

For inventory control and security, label blocked ports and record their locations. Inspect blockers periodically for wear and replace any units that show cracking or loss of fit. Use blockers in combination with network access controls and monitoring for a layered physical and logical security approach.
