F11 on certain models, if different, specify keyboard model.
On a US Dell keyboard, the key above the Enter key is for the backslash (\) and the pipe (|).
-----
More properly, "|" is a "vertical bar" or sometimes a "vertical slash", just a "bar" [with context or local usage to distinguish between other (e.g., horizontal bar, top bar, double bars) uses], or even a "stick". "Pipe" is a term borrowed from computing because it is the symbol used in, for example, most UNIX shell scripts (programs) to indicate that two processes are linked (or chained) together and the output (standard out, optional standard error) from the left side is fed (or transferred) (i.e., "piped") to the process on the right side as input (standard in). Some later DOS and MS Windows batch or command utilities adopted this usage. "|" is used as a symbol in other computer languages, symbolic logic, mathematics, etc., so you may hear other names derived from what the symbol represents.
