We also sell an essential collection of backpacks and carry cases that can accompany your security lock cable and give you the means to travel with your laptop or notebook safely and securely.
What is a Kensington-Compatible Cable Lock?
Laptops, notebooks, display monitors, and gaming consoles are all fitted with security lock slots to allow their owners to attach these devices to heavy or immovable objects and discourage any petty theft attempts. Generally, there are 2 types of lock slots – Noble and Kensington. Noble lock slots fit wedge locking mechanisms, while Kensington lock slots, or K-slots for short, fit perpendicular T-bar locking mechanisms that rotate into place when locked. A Kensington-compatible cable lock refers to a security lock cable that is compatible with a K-slot.
How Can I Identify a K-Slot on My Device?
There are 2 types of K-slots – Standard and Nano – both of which are easily distinguishable from other standard slots such as USB ports, HDMI ports, and audio ports. A Standard K-slot is 3 mm x 7 mm and marked with a lock icon and a “K” next to or inside the icon. The K-slot Nano is designed for more compact laptops and notebooks and is 2,5 mm x 6 mm. All that remains, is to get yourself a compatible cable lock once you have identified the lock slot type on your device.
The Legion 3-in-1 Combination Notebook Multi Lock
If you are looking for security lock cable that is compatible with Kensington and Noble lock slots, the Legion 3-in-1 Combination Notebook Multi Lock is your first choice.
