It’s an all‑in‑one point‑of‑sale unit combining a touchscreen display, compact PC, and optional peripheral interfaces designed for payment kiosks, card machines, cash registers and tablet style POS applications.
Models are available with Windows (including Windows IoT), Android and Linux. Available OS depends on the specific model — confirm with the seller when ordering.
Most models use projected capacitive (PCAP) multi‑touch for fast, accurate input. Typical screen sizes range from around 10" to 15.6", though exact options depend on the configuration.
Yes — it can support magnetic stripe readers (MSR), EMV chip readers and NFC/contactless (for mobile payments) either built‑in or as attachable modules. Payment functionality depends on the chosen configuration and payment terminal module.
Compliance depends on the installed payment module and payment software rather than the base hardware. You can configure the system to be PCI‑DSS/EMV compliant by integrating a certified PIN pad/payment module and working with a compliant payment provider.
Common connectivity options include Gigabit Ethernet, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, multiple USB ports, RS‑232 serial ports, HDMI/VGA output (on some models) and an RJ11 for cash drawers. Exact ports vary by model.
Some SKUs include an integrated thermal receipt printer; others are printerless. If you need a built‑in printer, request a model with the internal thermal printer option or pair the unit with an external USB/serial printer.
Yes. Barcode scanners can be connected via USB or RS‑232. Cash drawers typically connect through an RJ11/RJ12 port on the printer or directly to a drawer port on the unit, depending on configuration.
Manufacturers commonly provide device drivers, APIs and SDKs (for Windows and Android) to integrate touchscreen, peripheral and payment functions. Check with the vendor for available SDK packages and documentation.
Units generally support countertop placement and may include VESA mounting options for wall or pole mounts. Some models are designed specifically for kiosks or upright installations.
Most units use an external DC adapter (commonly 12–19V DC) with typical power consumption depending on configuration. Some models offer an internal battery or optional UPS for temporary backup, but many are AC‑powered for fixed installations.
Security depends on a combination of hardware, payment module, OS configuration and payment application. Use certified payment terminals, keep software up to date, enable OS security features and work with a PCI‑compliant payment processor to meet regulatory requirements.
Standard warranties are commonly 12 months, with optional extended warranties and depot/onsite service contracts available from some vendors. Confirm warranty length and support terms prior to purchase.
Yes — many manufacturers offer customization for colors, logo printing, I/O configurations, integrated peripherals (printer, MSR, NFC) and software preload. Minimum order quantities and lead times may apply.
Lead times vary by vendor, customization scope and quantity. Stock (standard) units may ship in days, while custom builds typically take 2–6 weeks or longer. Ask the supplier for an estimated lead time when placing an order.
