ecurity Cable Slot and Padlock
Ring
To the right of the fan vent on the back of the computer is
a security cable slot and a padlock ring (see Figure 1-2)
for attaching a commercially available antitheft device.
Antitheft devices for personal computers usually include
a segment of galvanized cable with an attached locking
device and key. To prevent unauthorized removal of your
computer, loop the cable around an immovable object,
insert the locking device into the security cable slot on
1-4 Dell OptiPlex GXi Midsize Systems Reference and Installation Guide
the back of your computer, and lock the device with the
captive screw
key provided. Complete instructions for installing this
kind of antitheft device are usually included with the
device.
NOTE: Antitheft devices are of differing designs. Before
purchasing such a device, make sure it will work with the
locator pin
cable slot on your computer.
The padlock ring allows you to secure the computer
cover to the chassis to prevent unauthorized access to the
inside of the computer. To use the padlock ring, insert a
commercially available padlock through the ring and
then lock the padlock.

To disable or change the operation of these features, you
must change the setting for the
category in the System Setup program. For instructions,
