Active Key AK-880

AK-880

Standard USB Magnetic Stripe Reader Keyboard

The AK-880 Keyboard Series is a unique product in terms of quality and reliability. Mechanical MX Gold Cross Point Contact key modules with metal frame are the base of the key matrix. More than 50 million actuations per key are enough to last for more than 10 years, even at heavy use. 500 000 read cycles of the MSR fit the same requirement. MSR code transmission via key stroke emulation and no need for any special software driver allow the usage of this keyboard at all operating systems.

Whatever will change on the POS system, the keyboard and the MSR will still work. Programmability of all keys is available as an option. Storage of all settings and programmed keys are done in the keyboard and do not require any additional software on the computer. GUI software for easy programming.
