Leviton ME introduces GreenPack bulk connector packaging

The new packaging was designed as a contractor- and earth-friendly solution to speed large network infrastructure installations and reduce jobsite waste.

GreenPack holds 24 connectors in individual, clear pockets. Connectors can be popped out one at a time, with remaining inventory well organized and easily counted. In addition, GreenPack offers an environmentally sound alternative to individually packaged connectors. The cardboard and plastic packaging is 100% recyclable, while the connectors are lead-free and RoHS-compliant.

GreenPack packaging is available in 5e, 5e+ (component-rated), and 6 category ratings, with white, ivory, blue, orange, or black connectors. Leviton's connectors, including those sold in the new GreenPack, are available through the company's reseller network.
