eH880 Secure Smart Card Terminal

eH880 Secure Smart Card Terminal

The eH880 Secure Smart Card Terminal is a secure and feature-rich smart card terminal primarily dedicated to the global electronic healthcare market. This innovative device is capable of facilitating secure mutual authentication, between a doctor’s and a patient’s card, for instance; displaying detailed multi-layered information from one or both cards, based on embedded access rights; and facilitating transactions through both private and public network infrastructures.
Features of the groundbreaking eH880 include a dual smart card interface, contactless card reader module, USB and RS232 connectivity, integrated TCP/IP networking support, multiple SAM slots, a 128x64 high resolution 2.3-inch black and white graphical LCD, a durable user friendly 20-button keypad, multiple bi-colored status LEDs, a highly effective audible speaker, and a real time onboard clock.
eH880 supports Secure PIN Entry (SPE), which entails secure entry of every PIN code into the device’s PIN pad, thus eliminating exposure of sensitive information to PC’s and workstations that are vulnerable to security attacks such as Trojans and USB Sniffers.
This highly efficient tool can also host additional features like high speed WiFi access and optional biometric fingerprint sensor, which provide unmatched usability and compatibility within any current or future system. Most importantly, eH880 has an easily upgradeable firmware, which would enable the device to adapt to the changing needs of future security systems.
