The DURAPORT system meets multiple needs, including protection of the elements, the possibility of cleaning in areas close to the connection points, occasional exposure to chemical agents, cable movement and, most importantly, reliability in network connectivity.
The combination of a patented overmolded wall plate gasket, a twist-lock coupling system for data connections, and industrial patch cords made from durable industrial cable ensures protection in the most extreme applications.
DURAPORT also features a captive connector cover, strain relief, and NEMA enclosure compatibility for adding physical security to any network in the simplest way.
Applications:
The new industrial networking system can be used in virtually any environment subjected to extreme conditions. Key applications include outdoor cameras and wireless access points (WAPs), production facilities, healthcare, and industrial kitchens.
DURAPORT adds versatility to security cameras while protecting network connections. The system features a hermetically sealed connector housing and a cable that withstands outdoor exposure, providing a reliable solution for video surveillance and WAP applications.
In manufacturing, durable connectivity in factories helps increase quality and reduce costs. DURAPORT industrial cable can be deployed throughout the facility to ensure the shortest possible cable runs while protecting data pairs from heat and other exposures, and preventing the ingress of dust and water.
In the healthcare sector, the new products also offer improved versatility and security. The DURAPORT system safeguards data connections from dust and water, making it ideal for operating rooms, patient rooms, and areas requiring spray cleaning.
Industrial kitchens, outdoor vending machines, and car washes are just some of the many other places where the new network system can be used. In kitchens, for example, it provides a wall plate and cable assembly that is secure, water-resistant, and dustproof.
The DURAPORT System consists of connector covers, patch cords, stainless steel wall plates, and kits comprising connector covers and caps, as well as wall plates. Compatible with Leviton's ATLAS-X1™, EXTREME™, and GIGAMAX™ QUICKPORT™ connectors, also available through Grupo COFITEL, DURAPORT industrial covers feature a twist-lock coupling for easy installation and a secure seal. Captive caps with retainers protect and seal unused ports. They can also be used with Leviton Die-Cast Waterproof Boxes (1GM53 and 1GM73). Patch cords are available in various lengths and configurations (plug and RJ-45) and include shielded Cat 6A and black Cat 6 UTP cable. They are compatible with Leviton heavy-duty Weatherproof Boxes in single-gang and dual-gang versions.
Furthermore, the stainless steel wall plates feature an overmolded wall plate gasket for a watertight seal. They are compatible with standard NEMA enclosures.
The COFITEL Group complements its product offering with other Leviton products to provide a complete solution for projects in industrial environments. These include a wide variety of Industrial Ethernet cables, as well as the Mini SDX Wall-Mount Fiber Enclosure and the QUICKPORT™ 6-Port DIN Rail-Mount Box and DIN Rail-Mount Box.
