ecurity Cable Slot and Padlock

Ring

To the right of the fan vent on the back of the computer
are a security cable slot and padlock ring (see Figure 1-2)
for attaching a commercially available antitheft device.
Antitheft cable devices for personal computers usually
include a segment of galvanized cable with an attached
locking device and key. To prevent unauthorized removal
of your computer, loop the cable around an immovable
object, insert the locking device into the security cable

slot on the back of your computer, and lock the device
with the key provided. Complete instructions for install-
ing this kind of antitheft device are usually included with
the device.

NOTE: Antitheft devices are of differing designs. Before
purchasing such a device, make sure it will work with the
cable slot on your computer.

The padlock ring allows you to secure the computer
cover to the chassis to prevent unauthorized access to the
inside of the computer. To use the padlock ring, insert a
commercially available padlock through the ring and
then lock the padlock.
