Wireless ATM machines were once used only at fairs and carnivals but times have changed -- Wireless is now the standard for ATM connectivity for permanent ATM locations as well. ATM deployment companies are switching from landlines to wireless in large numbers to save money.
"Approximately 30% of all ATMs deployed in 2009 were wireless. It is estimated at roughly 60% in 2010." - Burt Matthews, President of OptConnect
The reasons for wireless are simple:
Simple Installation
OptConnect wireless units are "plug and play." Installation is as simple as 1, 2, 3...
Security
OptConnect Gateways are secure beacuse they use the latest accepted standards for SSL encryption. No changes are required to your existing ATM.
"We are saving almost $30K annually on our ATM telecom costs by switching to OptConnect Wireless. The OptConnect Wireless boxes have been very reliable." -Jeff, President of eGlobal
