Security Cable Locks for Your Laptop or Notebook
Laptop security cables are used to secure the device to a heavy or immovable object when using such a device in a public space such as a coffee shop or airport lobby. On today’s laptops, you are likely to encounter a Kensington or Noble lock slot, dependent on the specific manufacturer and their preference of lock slot. These slots are easily distinguishable from HDMI and USB slots, as they feature unique sizes and can also be marked to identify them correctly. Legion offers a wide range of laptop security cables that are compatible with these types of lock slots.
Identifying the Lock Slot on My Laptop
Kensington lock slots, or K-slots for short, are 3 mm x 7 mm and commonly marked with a “K” and a small lock icon next to the slot. Noble lock slots are 3,5 mm x 4,2 mm and favoured by specific manufacturers such as Dell. K-slots fit a T-bar locking mechanism, while Noble slots fit a wedge locking mechanism. Both provide sturdy fits for optimal resistance against applied force. If you are using a more compact laptop or a notebook, you might also encounter a NANO lock slot. Luckily, you can find laptop security cables at Legion that are compatible with all of these lock slot types.
Business and Pleasure
Laptops are popular mobile devices that we utilise for both work and personal matters. This makes laptops and notebooks easy targets for petty thefts in public spaces, as the thief will not only snatch your device, but also all the sensitive information and personal data on your device. Fortunately, a laptop security cable lock can prevent the loss of any sensitive data in the event that someone tries to grab your device.
When your laptop is connected to a heavy object with one of our security cables, it will be exceedingly difficult to simply grab the device and run away. Should the lock be forcefully broken free, it will cause irreparable damage to the laptop, as an essential component will be harmed. This will render the device worthless, and with the damage to the essential component, not able to function properly. Therefore, your personal data will be safe as well.
