3. Is the Telpo T10 resistant to vibration, shock, static electricity, and other transit-related stresses?
Yes, the Telpo T10 smart card reader is specifically engineered for demanding transit scenarios, including mobile vehicle use. It undergoes rigorous testing in accordance with industry standards and CNAS-accredited laboratory protocols to ensure stability, reliability, and safety upon delivery. Key durability features include IK07 vandal resistance (upgraded from earlier IK06 mentions in some references), IP54 dust and water protection (optional in certain configurations), and compliance with E24 automotive-grade certification—which verifies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), environmental resilience, and safety for on-vehicle electronics in the EU market. These ensure the device withstands vibrations, shocks, temperature variations, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) common in buses, trams, and high-traffic environments.
4. Does the Telpo T10 support open-loop payments, and how does it handle different payment methods?
The Telpo T10 bus card reader fully supports EMV-certified open-loop contactless payments (including PayWave, PayPass, and major schemes), alongside closed-loop cards (ISO14443 Type A/B, Mifare, Calypso, Felica, etc.), QR code scanning for mobile wallets and paper tickets, and multi-format barcode reading (QR, Aztec, traditional). This versatility allows operators to accommodate modern cashless trends while maintaining compatibility with existing systems.
