So the Panduit rep was here with one of our customers and he had a few things to show us…he just happens to keep this kind of thing in his pocket ;). He showed us the port blocker and the cable locker.<\/p>\n

The little port blocker guy is a tiny blue piece of plastic that fits into any RJ-45 jack. They make a special little tool to remove the blocker. The idea is you can block out seldom used ports in conference rooms and such.

\nWe did notice that using a precision screw driver, you can unlock these guys, but it will keep the casual wanker out.<\/p>\n

Here is my lovely assitant, Jacob, showing you how everything works in video form.<\/strong>
