A Closer Look

On the keyboard cable we can find a splitter, which divides the thicker cable into more thinner cables; it is very good thing that all the cables are sleeved, a feature that I haven't seen on many other keyboards I have seen or reviewed in the past:



The cables that come out of the splitter are the microphone connector, the speaker/headphone connector, a PS/2 keyboard connector and a USB connector for the integrated USB hub on the keyboard:



When the cable gets out of the keyboards' body, it goes through a plastic ring; this ring also strengthens the cable during use:



If we look at the keyboard with more attention, we can see its two feet; in one of them SteelSeries implemented the USB hub and the microphone, headphone jacks:



Here is a closer look at the feet with the connectors; the 2 USB ports have a little space between them, to avoid 2 devices hitting each other, if both ports are occupied:



On the top right corner of the keyboard, we can see the SteelSeries logo and the Num, Caps, Scroll LEDs, which light up with a bright white color:



On the bottom left part of the keyboard we can find a key with the SteelSeries logo, which is practically a function key (Fn on laptops), to be able to use the multimedia F keys on top:



Here are the multimedia keys, from F1 to F6:



If we turn the keyboard, we can see that its bottom has a very interesting shape:



On each corner of the keyboard, we can see a plastic foot, which helps the keyboard not to move on the table we sit it on, but also to avoid scratching the surface:
