Features
Intel’s Desktop Processor Socket LGA 1155
By using the latest generation of Intel’s desktop processors and chipsets, code named
Sandy Bridge, the J2 680 supports a very wide range of processors. By taking advantage
of J2 company’s and partners’ vast experience with notebook, desktop, and POS
computer designs, we are able to combine features of all three for an optimal POS system
design. The result is a POS system that can utilize a desktop chipset that draws very little
power and generates a low amount of heat, similar to mobile chipsets and processors.
Notebook quality components are used in the processor, chipset, and power supply
circuit, which allows for reduced heat generation and minimal power usage.
Additionally, the 680 takes full advantage of the low power features built into the Intel
processor and chipset to further reduce heat.
Hot Swappable RAID/ Dual Hard Drives
Like the J2 650, the first integrated POS system on the market to offer a hot swappable
RAID feature the J2 680 also supports this feature. The two internal 2.5 inch SATA hard
drives can be configured as a RAID array which gives true fault tolerance to the hard
drive subsystem.
PoweredUSB Ports / Power Port
Addressing the need for additional power ports the J2 680 supports two +12V and one
+24V PoweredUSB ports. The J2 680 can take advantage of growing availably or
PoweredUSB products on the market.
In addition to the three PoweredUSB port the J2 680 also support four powered serial
ports, and VGA +12V power, a +24V printer power port and 3 standard 2.0 USB ports.
By using a combination of these powered ports most all additional external power
supplies for devices like scales, scanner, “Chip and Pin” devices, scanners, secondary
display and other can be eliminated. This save space and reduces cost, cables and
powered consumption. Also in most installs this means only one AC power point is
needed. In additional with J2 optional UPS all these devices will be powered during a
power outage.
