Kensington® Lock Port
The Kensington® lock port allows the Notebook PC to
be secured using Kensington® compatible Notebook PC
security products. These security products usually include
a metal cable and lock that prevent the Notebook PC to
be removed from a fixed object. Some may also include a
motion detector to sound an alarm when moved.
USB Port (2.0)
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB
2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing devices,
cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected
in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec
(USB 2.0). USB allows many devices to run simultaneously
on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as
additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping
of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or
disconnected without restarting the computer.
Optical Drive
The Notebook PC comes in various models with different
optical drives. The Notebook PC’s optical drive may support
compact discs (CD) and/or digital video discs (DVD) and
may have recordable (R) or re-writable (RW) capabilities.
See the marketing specifications for details on each model.
