Designed for Retail Environments

The HP rp5700 POS System features a retail-hardened design, customized to withstand the rigors of the retail environment. Retailers can maximize space in constrained work areas, such as check-out zones by positioning the compact system on the cash wrap or have it mounted vertically or horizontally under the cash wrap. The rp5700 is enhanced with peripheral support, improved power and cooling capabilities. Customers have the flexibility to customise their POS solution with a broad range of HP-branded POS peripherals.
