In this article, we discuss Kensington lock slots, their functionality, and look at a couple of options for both Standard and Nano slots.
What is a K-Slot?
A Kensington lock slot, or K-Slot for short, is a security lock slot that is featured on most mobile hardware that include laptops, notebooks, consoles, display monitors, and external audio devices. There are 2 types of K-slots, with the Standard being 3 mm x 7 mm and the Nano being 2,5 mm x 6 mm. The Standard is the more frequently used option, while the Nano is more suited to smaller and compact devices. These slots are distinctly marked with a small lock icon and a “K” inside the icon itself.
A Kensington cable lock, or more specifically, a security lock cable that is compatible with a K-slot, can protect your device and your personal and sensitive information that are accessible on the device. Such a cable loops around a heavy or immovable object and plugs into your device’s K-slot to attach your mobile device to the object. Its primary function is to discourage petty theft attempts and deliver strong resistance against basic cutting tools. Should the cable be forced from the lock slot, it will cause damage to an adjacent essential component and render the device worthless and unusable.
The Legion Combination Notebook Lock
If you prefer a Kensington cable lock that operates with a combination lock, this security lock cable is your ideal solution. It features a 1,8-m cable that is manufactured from galavnaised high-tensile steel and sheathed in a layer of clear PVC plastic for optimal resistance when someone tries to cut the cable. The locking assembly is manufactured from commercial-grade mild steel, brass, and aluminium. This security lock cable includes a table clamp, screw, foam spacer, and a 3-year warranty.
The Legion 3-in-1 Key Notebook Lock
This security lock cable caters to K-slot Standard, K-slot Nano, and Noble wedge lock slots – with a triple lock head that is operated by a single key. The cable length is 2 m and ensures that you can use it for almost any device with a lock slot. The cable is sheathed in a layer of dark smoke PVC plastic and features a swivel joint that connects to the lock heads. It includes a push-to-lock feature for easier functionality, as well as a Velcro strap and a 3-year warranty to make it an ideal travel companion for your notebook or laptop.
