Abstract
An example enclosure for a computing device includes a frame having an opening to receive a computing device, a plurality of panels and a retaining mechanism to retain the computing device within the frame. One of the plurality of panels comprises a port access opening. The enclosure also includes a security insert to be secured to the frame to restrict access to a port of the computing device through the port access opening.
Claims14
A computing device mounting enclosure comprising:
- a frame having an opening to receive a computing device, a plurality of panels and a retaining mechanism to retain the computing device within the frame, wherein one of the plurality of panels comprises a port access opening;
- a security insert to be secured to the frame to restrict access to a port of the computing device through the port access opening;
- and
- a first set and a second set of mounting apertures, the first set and the second set of mounting apertures arranged on opposing panels of the plurality of panels, wherein the first set and the second set of mounting apertures are offset and a set of tool holes are arranged in proximity to the first set of mounting apertures to allow access to fixing mechanisms in the second set of mounting apertures.
A rigid computing device mounting sleeve comprising
- a planar upper panel arranged substantially parallel to a planar lower panel;
- a first planar side panel arranged substantially parallel to a second planar side panel, wherein the first planar side panel and second planar side panel are substantially perpendicular to the planar upper and lower panels, and further wherein the first planar side panel is connected to the planar upper panel and the planar lower panel and the second planar side panel is connected to the planar upper panel and the planar lower panel;
- a planar back panel substantially perpendicular to the planar upper and the planar lower panels and the first and the second planar side panels, the planar back panel comprising a port access opening;
- a security insert to be retained within the port access opening and to restrict access to a port of a computing device;
- a first set of mounting apertures for securing the sleeve to a support structure;
- and
- a second set of mounting apertures arranged opposite the first set of mounting apertures,
- wherein the first set and the second set of mounting apertures are offset and a set of tool holes are arranged in proximity to the first set of mounting apertures to allow access to fixing mechanisms in the second set of mounting apertures.
A rigid sleeve enclosure for a computing device, the rigid sleeve enclosure comprising:
- integrally formed and connected upper and lower panels connected to side panels and a back panel, the back panel comprising a port access opening;
- mounting interfaces on the upper panel and the lower panel;
- a padlock loop integrally formed in one of the upper, lower, side, or back panels;
- and
- a security insert within the port access opening,
- wherein the mounting interfaces on the upper and the lower panels are offset and a set of tool holes are arranged in one of the upper or the lower panels to allow tool access to fixing mechanisms to secure the rigid sleeve enclosure to a support surface.
