This Safe-Tech cable is the Noble Wedge security cable designed to protect all Dell® and HP® laptops without adding bulk. Very easy to use, it is the most secure solution for protecting your laptops and notebooks equipped with the Noble Wedge slot (3.2 x 4.5 mm).
An anti-theft wedge cable specifically designed to secure Noble Wedge slots
Designed to secure your slim laptops, this Noble Wedge laptop lock cable is the only one compatible with the wedge slot found on the latest generation Dell® and HP® laptops. Its lock head is only compatible with 3.2 x 4.5 mm Wedge security slots and fits perfectly into the most recent Dell laptops and tablets equipped with a Wedge security slot.
The package includes 1 Noble Wedge security cable, a pair of unique keys (only opening this cable), and a product user manual.

These cables are designed for so-called Wedge security slots, which are the smallest on the market (4.5 x 3.2 mm), compared to classic Kensington slots (7.4 x 3.2 mm).
This elegant Noble Wedge cable lock opens with a small non-reproducible tubular key. A thin foam bumper ensures the cable is secured in the best possible way to your devices, avoiding any friction or movement that could damage your equipment. The design and shape of this cable give it proven efficiency in protecting your electronic devices, making it compact yet highly effective.
A unique, high-performance laptop lock cable for maximum security
In addition to its elegant design, this Noble Wedge laptop lock cable is made from high-quality materials, with a 4.4 mm braided carbon steel cable offering high tensile strength. This thickness makes it extremely resistant and it can only be removed by applying extreme force, which would inevitably damage the device. The braided steel is coated with a smoked black vinyl sheath for a premium finish.
This 2-meter steel cable attaches to the new Dell and HP wedge slots (4.5 x 3.2 mm).
Its lock features a 360-degree rotating head, which is particularly useful when space is limited for turning the key. 
Unique security keys are supplied in pairs and only open your specific cable. Master keys can be provided to facilitate administration of multiple cables (available for orders of 10+ units). Master keys open all cables, independently from the unique keys supplied with each cable. Keys are numbered for easy identification.

Are wedge cables compatible with all laptops?
Noble Wedge security cables (3.2 x 4.5 mm slot) have been specially designed for latest-generation Dell® and HP® laptops, most of which are now equipped with the new wedge slot.
The Noble Wedge lock is intended for ultra-thin and 2-in-1 laptops. This mini Noble Wedge slot (3.2 x 4.5 mm) is 35% smaller than Kensington slots. The location of the wedge slot allows the laptop to sit flat, and the cable’s design prevents it from raising the device once connected.
Please note there are 3 slot types on the market. Cables are not compatible with all slot sizes. Here are the current sizes to help you identify yours:
Slot name | Slot size | Brands using it | Example devices |
Noble Wedge Slot | 3.2 x 4.5 mm | DELL | Dell Venue XPS 11, 12, 13, 15, 18; Dell Precision M3800; Dell Inspiron 3000 series 11 and 13; Dell 7000 Series 13 and 14 |
Kensington Slot | 3 x 7 mm | Apple, Lenovo, Canon | Synology NAS server, Wacom Cintiq Companion graphics tablet |
Nano Slot | 2.5 x 6 mm | HP, Samsung | HP Pavilion 15-eg0006nf, 15-eg0007nf, 15-eg2045nf |
If you are unsure about your slot size, we also offer a 3-in-1 universal laptop lock cable.
How does the Noble Wedge security cable work?
The wedge security cable is equipped with a T-Bar-style rotating head that fits into the slot. On the other end, there is a highly resistant carbon steel loop.
Using the cable is simple: find a fixed anchor point, loop the cable around it, and insert the lock head into your laptop’s wedge slot. This anchor point must be fixed or difficult to move to ensure the lock’s efficiency. We recommend looping it around a heavy table leg or, for maximum security, using a wall anchor.
Once your anchor point is chosen, pass the lock head through the loop, insert it into your laptop’s slot, and push to lock. Your cable is now secure!
This Wedge slot is smaller (4.5 x 3.2 mm) than traditional Kensington slots (7.4 x 3.2 mm).
This sleek laptop lock opens with a small, non-reproducible tubular key. A thin foam bumper prevents scratching or movement, ensuring your device is protected. Its unique design provides proven security for your electronics.
Do wedge cables offer enough security for my laptop?
The braided carbon steel cable is highly cut-resistant for superior theft protection. Our cables are stronger than average and have passed multiple strength tests.
The cable can withstand up to 310 kg of force (3 kN). The wedge lock head resists pulling forces of 74.4 kgf (729 N).
Any attempt to forcibly remove the Noble Wedge cable from a laptop would damage the device, rendering it unsellable or unusable. This lock guarantees high security and cannot be removed quickly without causing damage.
