DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROTECTING A COMPUTER PERIPHERAL AGAINST UNAUTHORIZED REMOVAL

摘要

A device for protecting a computer peripheral against unauthorized removal includes a signal cord-holding portion having a signal cord holding passage. The signal cord holding portion is transformable between an open condition for receiving the signal cord in the signal cord holding passage or releasing the signal cord and a signal cord holding condition for preventing removal of the signal cord without dismounting from a connector or peripheral. A connecting structure is provided for connecting the device to an object. The signal cord holding portion and the connecting structure are interconnected for securing the signal cord holding portion in the signal cord holding condition if the connecting structure is connected to an object. A device for protecting a computer peripheral against unauthorized removal is also described.
