NOTE: Your PC features and location, availability, and number of connectors may vary.
Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strip must be specifically labeled as having this ability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so you can replace your equipment if surge protection fails.
Connecting to the PC
Connect your main hardware devices such as the monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the back of the PC. Other peripheral devices such as a printer, scanner, or camera also plug into connectors on the back of your computer. Some PC models also have connectors on the front of the PC. The table does not show all connectors.
