Posiflex RA10101000 3-Track USB MSR Attachment
Overview
The RA10101000 is a 3-track magnetic stripe reader (MSR) attachment designed to integrate with Posiflex RTxx15 payment terminals. This USB-connected module reads credit card and payment card data without an integrated fingerprint reader, making it suitable for general payment processors and systems where magnetic stripe alone satisfies transaction requirements. Install this when your RTxx15 deployment needs card-present payment capture but does not require biometric authentication.
Compatibility
Works exclusively with Posiflex RTxx15 series terminals. Attaches via USB and pairs directly with the RTxx15 hardware without requiring additional adapters or host system modifications beyond standard USB driver installation. Confirm your RTxx15 model version supports external MSR attachment before ordering.
Security Features
The RA10101000 supports 3-track encryption, meaning card data is encrypted at the reader before transmission to the host system. This reduces the exposure window for sensitive payment information and simplifies compliance with PCI DSS requirements for encrypted card-present transactions. Encryption capability does not require separate licensing — it is native to the hardware.
Installation Notes
USB connection to the RTxx15 — no separate power supply required. Position the card-slot opening in an ergonomic location for customer-facing transactions; cable routing should avoid high-traffic areas to prevent accidental disconnection during payment processing.
