Product: MegaNAC 240 Multi-function POS Network Access Controller

When new products are introduced, there's always a lot of buzz around how they've improved on a previous solution or piece of equipment and how they'll enable companies to do business easier and faster. If you want the latest in state-of-the-art products, though, you have to buy them, and that means spending money.

It's not often you find something that fills the faster/better requirement that also keeps the budget in mind.

Hypercom Corp. has leveraged its role as a global payment technology provider to develop and introduce the MegaNAC 240 high-density, multi-function POS network access controller.

As more businesses use the Internet to transmit data, there is increased market demand for affordable solutions, and this one is designed to speed transactions for financial institutions, retailers, service provider and other high traffic transaction-oriented organizations, and significantly lowers the cost per port for both dial and IP transaction networks.

Hypercom said the MegaNAC 240 delivers unprecedented performance, speed flexibility and data capacity to network operators who need to move thousands of transactions quickly, securely and accurately. It integrates a range of telecommunications functions into a single, compact unit designed specifically for dial and IP POS communications.

The transmission of payment data increases exponentially when solutions including EMV, gift and stored value cards, age verification, check conversion and electronic signature capture are widely adopted.

MegaNAC 240 devices can be interconnected to form high performance intelligent networks in demanding environments that support a variety of access modes and protocols, including all varieties of async and sync dial, ISDN V.110, direct digital data connections and TCP/IP.

MegaNAC 240 also supports all modem modes up to V.92, including Hypercom's 9600 bps FastPOS techonology. It incorporates secure socket layer (SSL) encryption, wide area network (WAN) interfaces, dual AC or DC power supplies, transaction routing and load balancing functions and protocol conversion.

MegaNAC 240 can connect directly to the Internet and provides a complete firewall function. It also connects to Hypercom's IN-tact Gateway Converter for TCP/IP consolidation.

The solution also includes transaction management tools such as status monitoring, detailed reporting, configuration management, statistics, alarms and alerts, analysis and remote downloads.
