Securing the C/Dock Expansion Station

Security Features

The docking device has the following security features:

An eject/locking lever that allows you to secure and eject your

computer. The back position secures the computer to the C/Dock II

Expansion Station. The middle position allows you to use the docking

device without securing it. The front position ejects the computer

from the docking device. Push the eject/locking lever to the back

position to use the padlock security lock and the security lock slot.

A spring-loaded latch on the front of the base that fits into a security

slot on the bottom of the computer secures the computer to the

docking control base. Not all Dell portable computers have the

security slot.

A secured top cover that blocks access to Peripheral Card Interconnect

(PCI) Card removal.

A secured media-bay eject button that blocks removal of media bay

devices.

An immobilized catch latch to deter unauthorized computer removal.
