The Lenovo cable lock with manufacturer number 4XE1B81919 is a security accessory for mobile IT devices, particularly for laptops. It provides physical protection against theft and is implemented via a robust steel cable lock, which can be attached to fixed objects such as desks, tables, or metal frames. The product is black in colour and features a cable length of 1.8 m, providing sufficient reach for securing to various fixed points in office or work environments. The cable has a diameter of 5 mm and is made of carbon steel, ensuring high tensile strength and resistance to mechanical stress. The total weight of the lock is 270 g, enabling a compact and easy-to-handle design.
Applications
The cable lock is primarily designed for securing laptops, especially in public or shared workspaces such as offices, libraries, schools, or conference rooms. It is also suitable for other mobile devices that feature a Kensington security slot. The lock can be used indoors as well as in protected outdoor areas where physical attachment to a fixed object is possible. The combination of cable and key mechanism offers a simple yet effective protection against unauthorized removal of the device.
Features and Equipment in Detail
The lock includes a key-operated locking mechanism, supplied with two keys. The keys allow opening and closing of the lock, with the provision of two keys adding an extra layer of security, for example in case one key is lost. The cable is flexible and can be wound around objects, enabling secure attachment to various surfaces. The lock’s construction allows for rotational and pivoting movement of the cable, facilitating adaptation to different mounting points. The use of a carbon steel cable ensures high mechanical stability and resistance to sawing or tearing.
Technology Explained Simply
The cable lock operates on the principle of physical fixation: the cable is threaded through the laptop’s security slot and secured to a fixed object. The lock itself is secured using a key, preventing removal of the cable without the key. The technology includes a special locking mechanism known as Cleat Locking Technology, as well as a patented Hidden Pin Technology, which protects against drilling or prying open the lock. The cable is made of carbon steel, ensuring high strength and durability. The cable length of 1.8 m allows for flexible placement, while the 5 mm diameter provides sufficient stability.
Compatibility and Accessories
The lock is compatible with laptops featuring a Kensington security slot. This is a standard connection implemented in many laptop models from various manufacturers. The lock can be used regardless of the laptop brand, as long as the security slot is present. The product is supplied as a single unit, with the packaging indicating 1 piece per pack.
Installation and Mounting
Installation involves inserting the cable into the Kensington security slot of the laptop and securing the other end to a fixed object such as a desk or metal frame. The lock is secured using a key, preventing removal of the cable without the key. The installation requires no tools and can be performed by any user. The flexible design of the cable allows adaptation to various mounting points.
Operational Advantages
The cable lock provides a simple and reliable method for physically securing laptops. The use of two keys increases security and enables redundant access control. The robust carbon steel cable ensures high resistance to mechanical attacks. The cable length of 1.8 m offers sufficient flexibility for securing to various objects. The compact design and low weight of 270 g enable easy handling and storage. The product is specifically designed for use in office environments and public spaces where physical security of IT devices is important.
