Lava Computer, a Ukrainian-Canadian tech manufacturer specializing in connectivity solutions, has introduced its K10 Batteryless nP2UE enclosure with a built-in simultaneous adapter which enables a Lenovo tablet to transform into a commercial grade kiosk, according to a company announcement.
Requiring a CATS/5e/6 Ethernet cable and a PoE injector or switch capable of a minimum 15-watt output, the Lenovo Tab K10 Batteryless enclosure (TB-X6C6NB) allows a wired network connection over the same Ethernet cable, removing the need for a separate power cable to operate the tablet.
The enclosure can be installed up to 328 feet from a PoE-capable network switch or injector.
For added versatility, the enclosure also features two USB-A ports for accessories such as card readers, keyboards, scanners or printers.
The device features standard VESA 100 holes for easy mounting.
