- The Celeron M processors deliver performance on the level of highly clocked Pentium 4 processors at a fraction of their power requirements
- Expandable to meet custom requirements – great variety of proven PC and POS-specific interface extensions internally
- Powered interfaces eliminate the need for separate power supply units
- Integrated scale controller
- Integrated uninterruptible power supply (UPS) increases system availability
- Fluff filter increases system availability configurations
Why Beetle? - The Detailed Version
1. Retail Specific Interfaces
- The Beetle /mini comes with one nonpowered serial port (RS232),
- 3 powered serial ports,
- 6 USB 2.0 ports,
- and one parallel port as standard.
The benefits of secured powered interfaces are better cable management leading to fewer potential points of failure and reduced support costs. If additional IO ports are required, it has afull height PCI card slot.
2. Toughness and POS Market Endurance to Ensure Investment Protection:
The Beetle /mini will be available on a long term basis as the processor is on Intel's Embedded program with extended lifecycle support. This simplifies POS Retail-specific interfaces Compact, rugged chassis Investment protection rollouts over a long period of time as well as reduces maintenance costs due to easier spare parts management.
3. Small Footprint and Rugged chassis
Measuring only 254mm by 216mm, and 128 mm high, the Beetle /mini occupies a small footprint which allows retailers to make the most of valuable counter space.
4. Embeded OS Support
One great way of reducing acquisitioncosts is to run Microsoft Windows Embedded for Point of Service or WEPOS. WEPOS is a powerful core operating system that seamlessly supports retail applications, hardware and peripherals based on industry standards such as UPOS, OPOS and JavaPOS.
5. Low Power Consumption:
The processor has a thermal design power of a mere 4 W. Coupled with the availability of powered interfaces for
peripheral, and a 12VDC port to power a LCD display, the Beetle /mini requires much less power to work, therefore
lowering your operating expenses. Each POS system requires only 2 power points, one for the CPU, the other for a
receipt printer.
