Maximize Uptime

"The 7th generation Intel® Core™ processors empower retailers to remotely manage their new TP8 family of point-of-sale platforms with Intel® vPro™ technology," said Joe Jensen, Vice President and General Manager of the Retail Solutions division at Intel. "TP8 terminals, from the new family of long-lifecycle Fujitsu POS terminals, offers unique modularity, which enables retailers to mix and match configurations to meet the needs of the quickly transforming retail in store environment."

With TP8 AIO 15" and 18.5" LCD options, modular AIO design and dual independent customer-facing display, sales associates can handle numerous customer-focused applications, such as sales assist, registration, promotions, and loyalty programs. A full portfolio of leading-edge, robust POS peripherals, including cash drawers, three-track magnetic stripe readers, keyboards and printers, give retailers the ability to extend the useful life of their investments through incremental modifications as their business requirements grow and change.
