Additional Product Information
The FarSync TCP-X25 POS Gateway provides a dependable means of inter-connecting POS equipment to electronic money transfer central processing systems where there is a requirement for a specialist Gateway between TCP/IP and X.25 networks.
BackgroundSome modern Point-Of-Sale (POS) terminals, store controllers and other types of electronic money transfer processing (EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer), Payment Clearing and Electronic Payment) equipment connect via TCP/IP whilst many existing POS transaction processing Hosts, such as VISA, use X.25 interfaces, in some cases the reverse situation exists.
Features
The very versatile Gateway supports SIBS, ISO 8583, APACS 30, APACS 40, HGEPOS plus CTL (Card Tech Ltd) Online message type support. There are 3 versions of the POS Gateway software providing scalable solutions, starting with a small scale single store version supporting up to 10 simultaneous transactions to the MAX version allowing up to 4,000 simultaneous transactions.
In addition the Gateway can be configured for general purpose TCP to X.25 data translation with flexible routing options, including fixed routes, dynamic routing and Cisco RBP compatibility.The Gateway, which operates as a Windows service on Windows Server 2003, XP or 2000, is designed for non-stop operation. Almost all changes to the configuration are applied dynamically with no need for reloading.
Two or more Gateways can be used in a load balanced, resilient configuration that has no single point of failure.
