Black Box’s EncrypTight™ was named the Most Innovative End-to-End Security Solution. The company's 3-Series Lockable Patch Cables were named the Best Physical Security Solution.
EncrypTight is a family of multi-site, multi-layer WAN encryption appliances that preserve network services while protecting data without requiring time-consuming VPN tunnels. EncrypTight operates transparently and is easily integrated into existing networks. It also provides seamless scalability for 3-Mbps networks up to 10-Gigabit networks.

3-Series is a family of high-performance GigaTrue™ and GigaBase™ CAT6A, CAT6, and CAT5e patch cables that can be optionally locked into place for the same price as non-locking cables.
