Clever Connectivity - The Retail Blade™ Host employs innovative connectivity to simplify and reduce/eliminate completely the tangle of wires that have to be traced, moved, disconnected and reconnected. Simply connect once

Intellegent Power Management - The Retail Blade™ Host goes further to reduce the number of cables needed by providing power to peripherals connected to the Retail Blade™ solution with switchable (OFF/5v/12V/24V) serial and USB ports. No more hunting for little fuses to replace. All ports have solid state automatic resetting polyswitched fuses.

Simply switches

Remote Real-Time Diagnostics - The Retail Blade™ Host provides for systems configured with the compact flash feature the ability to utilize the DigiPoS Systems innovative remote monitoring and diagnostics tool. The diagnostics will enable central IT personnel to establish the current state of the POS and the connected peripherals. Graphical user interface provides alerts and warnings for intermittent and redundant faults to enable proactive maintenance calls when most convenient for you. Simple service at your convenience

Five Stage Proactive Heat Management - The DigiPoS Systems Retail Blade™ Host provides proactive automated actions if the Retail Blade™ system begins to heat up. At each of five stages, the unit automatically reacts to rises in system temperature and provides you with alerts that the system temperature is rising. Fan speeds are managed to increase heat dispersement across a water cooled heat sink to ensure that the effects of temperature will be minimized. Safe and simple

Rackable HDD and CD-ROM - The DigiPoS Systems Retail Blade™ Host also delivers a simple solution for hard disk failures. The Host enables authorized in-store personnel to access, remove and replace the hard drive from the front of the key locked system face. Additionally, application patches, upgrades and/or changes that cannot be easily distributed across networks can be swapped out by authorized in-store personnel for ghosted hard drives, making deployments of these changes. Fast, easy, and simple

Easy In-Store Self-Service Backplane - No matter which DigiPoS Systems Retail Blade™ solution suits your unique needs, the Retail Blade™ Host backplane enables your blade to be removed, replaced, and/or upgraded by authorized in-store non-technical personnel.
