The Yubico x Keyport ParaPull Lanyard is a lanyard specifically developed for YubiKey devices, manufactured by Yubico in collaboration with Keyport. It is designed for the secure attachment and portability of YubiKey security keys, particularly the Nano and Keychain models, enabling convenient use on a keyring or on the body. The lanyard is designed for use with YubiKey devices that feature an integrated or separate attachment with a hole for fastening elements.
Functions and equipment in detail
The ParaPull Lanyard consists of a nylon core sheathed in a polyester cover. This combination ensures high tensile strength and durability, making the lanyard stable even with frequent use or in outdoor environments. The construction is designed so that the cord is thin enough to pass through the hole of the YubiKey Nano, enabling direct attachment without additional adapters. For YubiKey Keychain models with integrated attachments or separate inserts, the lanyard is also suitable, as it adapts to standard fastening elements.
Technology explained simply
The nylon core provides high mechanical strength, while the polyester cover protects against wear and external influences. The material combination ensures a balanced mix of stability and flexibility. The low thickness of the cord is crucial to avoid interfering with the compact design of the YubiKey Nano, ensuring the key can still be easily inserted into USB ports or other connectors without the lanyard getting in the way.
Compatibility and accessories
The ParaPull Lanyard is specifically developed for YubiKey devices and can be directly attached to YubiKey Nano and Keychain models with inserts. It is also compatible with the Yubico x Keyport Pivot 2.0, a swivel mechanism that allows the lanyard to be attached to a portable device or keyring. The connection is made through the integrated hole in the YubiKey or through the attachment of the Keychain model.
Installation and mounting
The attachment is done by simply inserting the cord through the hole of the YubiKey Nano or through the attachment of the Keychain model. When used with the Pivot 2.0, the lanyard is attached to its fastening point. No additional tools or mounting aids are required. The connection is mechanically stable and can be easily released if needed.
Advantages in operation
The ParaPull Lanyard offers a secure and discreet way to carry YubiKey devices on the body or on a keyring. The low thickness of the cord ensures the key is not obstructed, while the high strength minimizes the risk of accidental loss. The materials are resistant to wear and suitable for daily use in various environments.
