1. Kensington Lock
This notebook provides a Kensington Lock hole, which allows users to secure the notebook
in place with a key or some mechanical PIN device and attached through a rubberised metal
cable. The end of the cable has a small loop which allows the whole cable to be looped
around a permanent object, such as a heavy table or other similar equipment, thus securing
the notebook in place.
2. RJ-45 Connector
The 10/100/1000 Ethernet connector is used to connect a LAN cable for network
connection.
3. E-SATA (External Serial ATA)
The E-SATA Connector allows you to connect an external Serial ATA hard disk device.
Users can now utilize shielded cable outside the notebook to take advantage of the benefits
the SATA interface brings to storage.
4. Power Connector
To connect the AC/DC adapter and supply power for the notebook.
5. VGA Port
The 15-pin-D-sub VGA port allows you to connect an external monitor or other standard
VGA-compatible device (such as a projector) for a great view of the computer display.
6. HDMI Connector
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new interface standard for PCs, displays
and consumer electronics devices that supports standard, enhanced and high-definition
video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable.
7. Ventilator
The ventilator is designed to cool the system. DO NOT block the ventilator for air circulation.
