Currently, the dominant I/O interface is the USB Type-A connector, which is commonly used in the main peripherals of a POS system, but in 2019, the USB Implementers Forum, which includes members such as Apple, HP, Microsoft, and Intel Belong to, this known Type-C is the standard connector of USB4, which increases data transfer to 40Gbps, which is two times faster than USB3. Therefore, to support faster data transfer, USB Type-C may replace Type-A in the future to connect with devices that need to transfer a lot of data to display multimedia content and provide higher computing power.
In the POS system, we see that the latest POS terminals have integrated the Type-C port to connect with the second screen to display promotional content or interactive online campaigns. Meanwhile, users can connect the POS system to a PC or laptop via the Type-C port to run multiple programs on the screen at once. In addition, Type-C can be the high-wattage power cord to power the peripherals while it is even more user-friendly as you can plug in both sides of the plug.
Type-C is suitable for slim devices due to its size and functionality. Both Apple and Google have adopted Type-C as the main connection interface in their next-generation smartphones. As the world’s leading POS terminal manufacturer, Clentron keeps up with the latest trend by integrating 2 Type-C ports into the I/O interface of the latest model PT2700 and equipped with multiple functions to accelerate checkout efficiency.
