MH0043
The INTELLIHEAD provides secure three-track mag stripe reading capabilities for use in POS terminals and other applications where system requirements dictate the need for improved security to meet PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements. The readers incorporate the Triple-track Delta ASIC.
It leaves the encapsulated head to ensure the same level of security applied to other types of financial transactions.
This family of Encrypting IntelliHead Readers utilizes TDEA (a.k.a. Triple-DES) encryption with a unique key per device to encrypt the magnetic track information. The Encrypting IntelliHeads are available in a variety of spring and beam arrangements for both swipe and insert reader configurations. The three-track heads conform to ISO and AAMVA standards.
The SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) is a synchronous full-duplex serial bus used for
communication between the Reader and the target system.
Features
- Bi-directional card reading
- Reads up to three tracks of card data that meets ANSI/ISO/AAMVA/JIS standards
- All electronics are potted inside the head to prevent tampering
- Includes Device Serial Number
- All card data from the triple-track Delta ASIC is encrypted using TDEA prior to transmission (the data is not decoded or formatted prior to encryption)
- Uses a unique double-length DES key per device
- SPI bus compatible 2 to 5 wire serial interface
- Maximum SPI bus transfer rate of 100 Kbits/Second
