ALTRINCHAM, England, June 14, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Maxatec launches an addition to its range of POS hardware ( http://www.maxatec-europe.com/content/pages/applications/epos.shtml), the new RDT-150 ( http://www.maxatec-europe.com/content/pages/products/models/rdt-series.shtml) all-in-one POS Terminal.

Jason Southern, sales manager at Maxa Technologies (Maxatec) said: "Our current range of POS Terminals has seen a steady increase in sales over the past 12-18 months. We are now seeing a demand for an entry-level product and the RDT-150 fits this position perfectly. It's a robust and compact terminal that can be desk, pole or wall mounted; there is a huge amount of connectivity and power integrated into a small footprint. As with all our terminals, the RDT-150 is richly populated with communication ports, whilst the Pentium Celeron CPU ensures a high performance platform. We have already had very positive feedback customers, so we are confident this one will be a winner."

Adding to the existing epos systems (http://www.maxatec-europe.com/) range, the RDT-150 ( http://www.maxatec-europe.com/content/pages/products/models/rdt-series.shtml) is a cost effective POS System solution with excellent functionality and reliability, as well as easy upgrade options. Maxatec will standardise on a 5-wire resistive touch panel but there are other options, including Capacitive, SAW and IR. The modular design allows the terminal to be upgraded at a later date with any one of the range of optional devices, including VFD customer display, MSR card reader, fingerprint scanner, 3-in1 MSR+Smartcard+I-Button reader, a second LCD screen with or without touchscreen. The design of the unit allows easy access to components to minimise down time during maintenance.

Connectivity includes multiple external serial and USB 2.0 ports, a PS/2 and Ethernet connection as well as 2 x RJ-12 cash drawer ports which can be powered with 12 or 24 volts and a VGA port. The compact and robust design ensures that the terminal uses minimum space and that is suitable for use in harsher environments. The RDT-150 is also resistant to water spillage, making it an ideal choice for the hospitality sector. Connectors and cables can be neatly hidden inside the stand, and the terminal also has a removable base as well as wall mounting capability with 75mm VESA holes.

To allow for future capability the RDT-150 is Windows 7 compatible as well as supporting all the legacy Microsoft operating systems.
