Cable Lock DELL 461-10054

The Dell Cable Lock 461-10054 secures laptops and compatible devices using a round key tubular lock and a multistrand steel cable. Designed to attach to the standard Kensington-style security slot found on most notebooks and many peripherals, the lock helps protect hardware and the data stored on it. The lockhead is compact to avoid blocking ports and the cable includes a rubber bumper to prevent scratches.

Advantages

This cable lock uses a patented T-bar style mechanism and a round key tubular cylinder with anti-rotation pins to resist picking. The cable is made from a tempered carbon steel core with a steel composite outer layer, providing strength with relatively low weight. Anti-shear features and tamper-resistant design reduce the risk of forced removal, while the slim lockhead and included rubber cable tie make the unit convenient to install and transport.

Suitable for

• Laptops with a Kensington-style security slot (including compatible Dell Inspiron models)
• Flat-panel monitors, docking stations and projectors with security slots
• Office, school or travel environments where device theft is a concern

How to use

Loop the cable around an immovable anchor point, align the T-bar end with the device's security slot and insert the lockhead until it seats. Turn the supplied key to lock; remove the key to secure. Use the rubber cable tie to keep the cable coiled for storage. To unlock, insert the matching key and rotate to release the T-bar, then remove the lock from the slot.

Usage recommendations

For best results, attach the anchor point to an immovable object and avoid leaving the device unattended in high-risk public areas. Store spare keys separately and periodically inspect the cable and lockhead for signs of wear or tampering.
