Terminal Overview
This chapter provides a brief description of the V
x
5xx/V
x
6xx series of terminals.
The V
x
5xx/V
x
6xx terminal series represents the shape of things to come in e-
payment. These terminals are members of a broad product family that will provide
a clear migration path into the future for current users of Omni countertop and
portable terminals.
The V
x
5xx series includes high performance countertop terminals with fixed and
modular enhanced communication options. The V
x
510 (also referred to as Omni
5150) is the entry point countertop terminal.
The V
x
6xx series represents a new generation of wireless terminals. The
pioneering V
x
610 (also known as Omni 5600) features the same sleek, compact
design of the V
x
510, but in a portable, battery-powered form factor that uses
wireless technologies, including Wi-Fi, CDMA and GSM/GPRS.
The bold ergonomic design is sleek and stylish, offering countertop power and 32-
bit performance in an integrated terminal that can be handed to the consumer for
input. In addition, the V
x
5xx/V
x
6xx series serves as the entry point to VeriFone’s
acclaimed multi-application platform—with the capability to securely support
payment and value-added applications on a single terminal.
