“Wireless ATM Store prides itself on its efforts to provide excellent customer service and is always on the look-out for new ways to make our customers’ lives easier.”
Rick Tibberino, President of Wireless ATM Store
Background
From fixed commercial sites like airports, restaurants, hotels, shopping malls to temporary events like fairs and sporting events, ATMs offer a high level of banking convenience. Unfortunately, many ATM operators find remote management a real headache. Besides fast, reliable and secure data transmission, real-time monitoring of ATM status and prompt maintenance are also challenging and expensive. In response to this need, Wireless ATM Store devised a solution.
Challenges
- Reliable, uninterrupted data communication between the ATM and the ATM processor
- Encrypted data transmission that ensures information and financial security
- Rugged design and flexible installation for diverse locations and variable functions
Solution
Wireless ATM Store partnered with InHand Networks to provide a custom wireless networking solution for ATM operators.
Prior to this partnership, Wireless ATM Store had an existing customer base with thousands of ATMs across the US. With the introduction of the InHand InRouter611 industrial wireless router, Wireless ATM Store found a wireless solution that provides the reliability and speed that surpasses its customers’ expectations.
Wireless ATM Store was able to enhance its own device management portal, CheckURBox.com, to bring new features and a better end-user experience. One such feature is Terminal ID Capture. Each ATM is allocated a Terminal ID. Wireless ATM Store built a feature in their portal to present the Terminal ID to its customers. The InRouter611 facilitates this feature and also utilizes InHand’s encryption technology to ensure safe and secure ATM transactions.
Features
- Small-form factor
- Low power consumption
- Secure VPN connection over cellular networks
- Wide temperature -20°C~+70°C for harsh environments
- Metal enclosure, IP30 protection, EMC level 2
Benefits
