Abstract
A lockable dust cap is inserted over a proximal end of an adapter assembly. The lockable dust cap has locking arms that secured the dust cap hub to the proximal end of the adapter assembly, and a grip portion that when rotated from an unlocked '0' or locked '1' position the dust cap is secured at the proximal end of the adapter. The dust cap is ingress protected with a seal and polymer shroud that covers the proximal end of the adapter. This helps to prevent moisture or debris ingress into the adapter assembly.
