ABSTRACT:
A customer bridge, also known as a network interface device, is provided with structural features to deter tampering with, or unauthorized use of, phone services. The customer bridge includes first and second extended flanges located on opposite sides of an RJ-11 jack. The first and second extended flanges include first and second through holes, respectively. A shackle may be passed through the first and second through holes and secured to a padlock to prevent removal of an RJ-11 plug from the RJ-11 jack, or to block access to an empty RJ-11 jack.
