Leviton Telcom 84009-A40 Antimicrobial Weatherproof Wallplate

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 84009-A40 is a 2-gang standard-size wallplate engineered with an antimicrobial finish for installations where surface hygiene and weather resistance are priorities. Designed for use in fiber optic hardware and connectivity applications, this wallplate provides a protective, code-compatible cover for structured wiring outlets in environments exposed to moisture or frequent contact. Electricians and low-voltage technicians install this plate as part of a complete connectivity infrastructure. The stainless steel construction delivers durability in demanding commercial and residential settings.

This wallplate is suited for indoor and covered outdoor structured wiring installations where a standard 2-gang opening is required. Its weatherproof rating makes it appropriate for locations near entryways, mechanical rooms, or other areas subject to humidity and incidental moisture. The antimicrobial surface treatment is particularly relevant in healthcare, food service, educational, and other high-contact environments where surface cleanliness standards are enforced. Low-voltage installers and licensed electricians commonly specify this plate in fiber optic and data connectivity rough-ins.

Key Features

• Antimicrobial surface treatment reduces microbial growth on the plate surface
• Weatherproof construction suited for damp or humid installation environments
• 2-gang standard size accommodates common low-voltage and connectivity device inserts
• Stainless steel body provides corrosion resistance and long service life
• Sold individually as a single unit per package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation wallplate for standard 2-gang low-voltage and fiber optic connectivity applications. Consult device insert specifications to confirm opening compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician. De-energize all circuits at the panel before accessing any wiring behind the wallplate. Follow applicable NEC requirements for weatherproof enclosure ratings in damp or wet locations. Do not over-tighten mounting screws on stainless steel plates, as this may distort the finish or crack adjacent device inserts.
