Product Overview
Conventional attendance systems normally assume that employees pass through one known doorway or reception point. That approach works well for an office, but it becomes less convenient when teams are spread across a construction project, a large factory compound, a remote operations area, a temporary work camp or a changing logistics zone. The Horus H1 addresses that gap by packaging attendance functions into a handheld unit that an authorized supervisor can carry to the point where the workforce actually gathers.
The hardware is based on Android 10.0 and uses a 64-bit octa-core Cortex-A53 processor running at 2.0GHz, paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. A microSD card can expand storage by up to 256GB. The 5.5-inch IPS capacitive touch display has a 720 by 1440 resolution, giving administrators a compact interface for enrollment, verification and device interaction without depending on an attached monitor. Dual cameras support the device’s face-recognition workflow, while NFC and QR capabilities allow businesses to adopt different identity methods according to site policy.
Mobility is reinforced by dual-band Wi-Fi, broad 3G/4G support, Bluetooth and embedded GPS/GLONASS. These communication options matter when the terminal is moved between areas with different network conditions. A project office may use Wi-Fi; an outdoor checkpoint may depend on mobile data; and GPS-assisted location data can contribute useful context to attendance operations when the business needs to know where the terminal was being used.
For UAE buyers, the product should be treated as part of an attendance solution rather than only as a handheld device. The correct result depends on how users will be enrolled, how records will be synchronized, which ZKTeco software platform will be used, whether fingerprint verification is required, what type of SIM and mobile network is available, and who will manage the unit in the field. FourTeck.com can help translate those operational questions into a practical equipment and software request before a purchase order is raised.
Key Business Benefits
◆ Attendance Where the Work Happens
A portable terminal can be taken to a crew assembly area, project entrance or temporary shift point. That changes attendance from a building-centric process into a mobile workflow. Businesses with changing work zones can reduce the operational friction of moving large groups toward one fixed reader merely to clock in or out.
◆ Multiple Identity Methods
Face, NFC and QR support give administrators more than one way to design an attendance process, while fingerprint capability is available as an option. This flexibility is useful when different worker groups, site policies or project phases require different credentials instead of forcing every employee into one method.
◆ Flexible Data Connectivity
Dual-band Wi-Fi, 3G/4G and Bluetooth let a deployment adapt to the available communications environment. A terminal can use office wireless networking when inside a facility and mobile data where fixed network infrastructure is not practical. This flexibility is particularly valuable on temporary or evolving project sites.
◆ Rugged Field-Oriented Construction
The IP65 rating, ABS housing and tempered-glass surface help the terminal handle outdoor and industrial use more confidently than a typical office tablet. Rugged construction does not remove the need for careful handling, but it gives project teams a device designed for demanding operating conditions rather than desk-only use.
◆ Large Local Record Capacity
Support for up to 50,000 users, 50,000 faces, 50,000 cards and one million logs provides substantial local capacity for workforce projects. Optional fingerprint storage supports up to 30,000 templates. Buyers should still plan central database retention and software administration separately, especially across multiple terminals or long projects.
◆ Reduced Dependence on Fixed Cabling
A handheld device can simplify attendance deployment where pulling permanent network and power cables would be inconvenient or temporary. The rechargeable battery and wireless communications allow a site team to focus on workflow and coverage. Charging routines and connectivity checks should still be included in daily operating procedures.
Product Highlights
ZKFace 5.6.2 is specified with a recognition distance from 0.3m to 2m and a recognition speed below one second, helping supervisors process attendance without requiring users to touch the screen.
The IPS capacitive touch screen balances portability with enough visual area for daily enrollment, identity checking and administrator navigation.
Embedded A-GPS and GLONASS support location-aware field workflows. The manufacturer states an accuracy distance of 5m, though real positioning can vary with environment and satellite visibility.
The 5200mAh Li-ion battery is specified for up to about five hours of operation without recharging, making charging planning an important part of shift deployment.
The product supports dynamic QR workflows with ZKBioSecurity mobile applications and supports QR, PDF417, Data Matrix, MicroPDF417 and Aztec scanning in third-party development projects.
ZKBio Time, ZKBio Security and ZKBioCV Security are listed as supported software, allowing buyers to align the handheld terminal with a wider ZKTeco attendance or security environment.
The main purchasing decision is not simply whether these features are present. Buyers should define which ones will actually be used. A site that relies on facial attendance may not require optional fingerprint hardware. A temporary camp with weak Wi-Fi may place greater importance on 4G coverage and SIM readiness. A large project may value the enrollment and log capacities but also need careful software planning so multiple devices can feed one reporting process. Matching the product to a clear operating model avoids paying for capabilities that are not needed and prevents missing an essential option later.

The specification table should be read as a planning tool rather than a substitute for project design. For example, a five-hour stated battery operating period may be sufficient for short attendance windows but could require a midday charging routine if the terminal is used continuously. Similarly, a high local log capacity does not remove the need for synchronization, backup and central reporting. Buyers should also confirm mobile-network compatibility in the intended country and the exact NFC credential technology used by their employees. FourTeck.com can help organize these checks into a configuration request so purchasing teams receive a quote that reflects the actual deployment instead of only the base model name.
Configuration and Buyer Guidance
A mobile attendance device can solve a difficult field problem, but the project becomes much smoother when the buyer defines how the device will be used before requesting a quotation. Start with the workforce pattern. Identify how many workers need to be enrolled, how many sites or shifts will use the terminal, whether the same employees move between sites and whether more than one handheld unit will report to the same attendance platform. This determines whether you are planning a simple single-site device or a wider centralized attendance environment.
1. Which verification method?
Decide whether employees will primarily use face recognition, NFC cards, QR codes or the optional fingerprint sensor. A mixed method can be useful, but it should match the organization’s identity policy and enrollment process.
2. What network is available?
Check whether each site has reliable 2.4/5GHz Wi-Fi or whether a 3G/4G SIM will be required. Confirm network bands and operator support before sending units to remote locations.
3. Which software platform?
Define whether the project will use ZKBio Time, ZKBio Security, ZKBioCV Security or another approved integration. Confirm version, licensing, server capacity, user roles and reporting expectations.
4. How will charging work?
The manufacturer states about five hours of operation from the 5200mAh battery. Plan charging points, spare chargers or operational rotation according to the actual shift and usage pattern.
5. Are existing cards compatible?
If the business already issues NFC credentials, confirm the card technology against ISO14443A, ISO15693 and the device’s listed NFC capabilities instead of assuming every card will be read.
6. Who controls the device?
Assign supervisors or administrators who will carry, charge, secure and synchronize the terminal. Mobile equipment needs clear custody rules, especially when personal attendance information is stored locally.
When contacting FourTeck.com, share the number of employees, number of locations, preferred biometric or credential method, expected attendance software, existing ZKTeco environment if any, Wi-Fi or mobile-data availability, desired quantity and deployment timeline. If the terminal is replacing an older device, include the old model and explain how attendance data is currently transferred. These details allow the sales and technical team to identify optional components, software dependencies and likely compatibility questions before the quote is finalized.
Ideal Business Use Cases
Construction Projects
Large projects frequently have changing entry routes, temporary offices and work crews moving between zones. A handheld attendance terminal can be carried to morning muster points or shift-change locations, helping supervisors register attendance closer to where teams actually start work. Mobile data can be particularly useful where project Wi-Fi coverage is incomplete.
Factories and Industrial Compounds
Industrial sites may have multiple gates, production areas or contractor assembly points. A rugged portable device can complement a fixed attendance architecture by serving temporary entrances, shutdown crews or maintenance teams. Buyers should verify environmental exposure and define how the device will be protected when not in use.
Logistics Yards and Warehouses
Logistics operations often involve loading yards, driver areas, warehouse zones and shift-based labor. Mobility lets a supervisor take verification to a crew location rather than building every workflow around a single reader. GPS context and wireless connectivity can support better control when the terminal moves across a large property.
Remote Field Teams
Service, maintenance and field-project teams may operate far from corporate offices. Where mobile network coverage is available, the Horus H1 can provide a dedicated attendance device with biometric and credential support. This can be easier to govern than relying on individual employee phones for every attendance event.
Temporary Sites and Events
A temporary facility, exhibition build, maintenance shutdown or short-term project may not justify permanent cabling and wall-mounted hardware. A rechargeable handheld terminal can be deployed for the project period, provided the organization has a clear process for enrollment, charging, data synchronization and device custody.
Multi-Site Workforce Operations
Businesses managing several work sites can use portable terminals where fixed infrastructure differs between locations. The key design question is central management: confirm how each terminal communicates with the attendance platform, how identities are synchronized and how administrators will maintain consistent policies across the fleet.
These scenarios share one characteristic: the workforce or attendance point moves. If every employee already passes a stable reception desk with network and power, a fixed wall-mounted terminal may be simpler. Horus H1 becomes more compelling when mobility, ruggedness and multiple wireless paths remove a genuine operational limitation. That distinction helps buyers decide whether they need this specialized handheld platform or a conventional attendance terminal.
ZKTeco Horus H1 Mobile Connectivity and Field Deployment
The defining feature of this terminal is not any single biometric method; it is the combination of portable identity verification with several ways to communicate. In a fixed office, a time-attendance device can rely on Ethernet or a known Wi-Fi network. Field deployments are more unpredictable. A construction site may have a project-office wireless network but weak coverage near a distant work zone. A logistics yard may have wireless coverage near warehouses but not at every muster point. A remote service location may depend almost entirely on mobile data. Horus H1 is designed to operate across these changing conditions with dual-band Wi-Fi, 3G/4G connectivity and Bluetooth.
For buyers, the important task is to map communication method to location. Do not simply order a SIM and assume coverage will be identical across all sites. Check the mobile operator, network bands, signal strength, data policy and any corporate firewall or server requirements. Where Wi-Fi will be used, confirm whether the device can connect to the organization’s authentication method and whether the attendance server is reachable from the relevant VLAN or internet path. If a deployment relies on a central server hosted at headquarters, VPN, firewall rules or secure application publishing may also need consideration outside the terminal itself.
Embedded A-GPS and GLONASS add another useful field dimension. Location data can help organizations understand where a mobile attendance session is being performed, which is valuable when a single device is carried between multiple zones. Positioning should still be treated as context rather than a guarantee of exact location in every environment. Buildings, metal structures and limited satellite visibility can affect results, so operational policies should define how location information is interpreted.
ZKTeco Horus H1 Hybrid Verification and Workforce Identity
Attendance accuracy depends on linking the event to the correct person without creating a slow process for hundreds of workers. The Horus H1 gives administrators several identity tools rather than limiting the site to one credential type. Facial verification is the main contactless biometric method and uses ZKFace 5.6.2. The published recognition range is 0.3m to 2m, with recognition specified at under one second. That can support smooth attendance lines when users are enrolled correctly and the device is held in an appropriate position.
NFC gives organizations a credential-based alternative. This is useful where workers already carry compatible cards or where a business wants a fallback method for users who are not enrolled for biometrics. The device lists ISO14443A and ISO15693 support along with NFC-IP1 and NFC-IP2. Buyers should compare this against their exact badge technology because “NFC card” is a broad label and compatibility should be confirmed rather than assumed.
QR capability opens another workflow. Dynamic QR codes can be used with ZKBioSecurity mobile applications, while broader code types are available in third-party development projects. This can be relevant for temporary workers, visitors or application-led deployments, but the complete workflow depends on software and integration design. Optional fingerprint verification adds a further biometric factor. If fingerprint is required, the procurement request must clearly state that the fingerprint-equipped configuration is needed; it should not be treated as standard on every quoted unit.
The best method depends on workforce policy. Face can reduce card handling, NFC can fit established badge programs, QR can support app-based or temporary processes, and fingerprint can provide another biometric option. A mixed deployment should define when each method is accepted, who can enroll users and how exceptions are handled. FourTeck.com can help buyers document these rules before quotation so hardware selection follows the attendance process rather than creating it after installation.
ZKTeco Horus H1 Rugged Design, Battery and Daily Operations
A mobile terminal is carried, handled and exposed to conditions that a wall-mounted device rarely sees. Horus H1 therefore uses a rugged casing, ABS construction, tempered-glass surface and an IP65 protection rating. The listed operating range is -20°C to 50°C with working humidity below 90% RH. These specifications make it suitable for demanding outdoor-oriented environments, but procurement teams should still consider how the unit will be used in the local climate. Direct sun, enclosed vehicles and charging in very hot spaces can create conditions different from the stated ambient operating range.
The 5200mAh battery supports mobility, with the manufacturer indicating about five hours of operation without recharging. For real projects, runtime should be converted into a daily operating plan. If the terminal is needed only during a one-hour morning and evening attendance window, that may be comfortable. If it will remain active throughout a long shift for ad hoc check-ins, a charging rotation is more important. Screen brightness, wireless use, scanning frequency, cellular signal conditions and application activity can influence practical battery life.
The device measures 170 by 80 by 20mm and has a listed gross weight of 400g, so it is portable but more substantial than a consumer smartphone. That is appropriate for a purpose-built rugged device, yet supervisors should have a secure way to carry and store it. A defined handover procedure between shifts helps reduce loss, accidental damage and uncertainty over who is responsible for synchronization or charging.
Operational discipline matters as much as rugged hardware. Keep charging equipment in a known location, record which supervisor has the terminal, protect administrator credentials, verify synchronization at the end of an attendance window and avoid leaving the device unattended in vehicles or exposed areas. These practices help businesses turn rugged hardware into reliable attendance records over the life of a project.
What Should You Know Before Choosing This Mobile Attendance Terminal?
The questions below focus on the practical issues that usually determine whether a mobile biometric terminal is a good fit. They cover workforce size, connectivity, credentials, replacement planning, software and quotation preparation so both technical teams and procurement staff can evaluate the project from the same information.
Who is this handheld attendance device best suited for?
It is best suited to organizations where attendance points change or where workers do not always enter through one fixed doorway. Construction crews, industrial teams, logistics operations, temporary projects and field-service groups are typical examples. If every employee passes a permanent office reception with power and network already available, a fixed terminal may be simpler and should also be considered.
Can it support a large workforce?
The device is specified for up to 50,000 users, 50,000 face templates, 50,000 cards and one million attendance logs, with optional fingerprint capacity up to 30,000. Those local capacities suit substantial deployments, but workforce scale should also be evaluated at the software level. Multiple terminals, reporting periods, synchronization frequency and central database sizing can affect the complete solution.
Will it work where fixed internet is unavailable?
It can use 3G/4G mobile networking in addition to dual-band Wi-Fi, so a fixed wired connection is not mandatory. Buyers should confirm operator coverage, SIM requirements and supported bands for each deployment location. The device also supports local capacities, but the exact offline and synchronization workflow depends on the selected application and project configuration and should be tested before rollout.
Should we order the fingerprint option?
Choose fingerprint only when it solves a real attendance or identity requirement. Face, NFC and QR workflows may already cover many projects. Fingerprint can be valuable where policy requires a second biometric method or where the organization wants an alternative verification path. Because fingerprint is optional, the quote should clearly state whether the selected Horus H1 configuration includes the sensor.
Can we use our existing employee cards?
Possibly, but card technology must be checked. The terminal lists ISO14443A, ISO15693, NFC-IP1 and NFC-IP2 support with a maximum reading distance of roughly 3–5cm. Ask your current access or HR system administrator for the exact card standard, then compare that information with the device specification before assuming compatibility. A small pre-deployment test is advisable for established card fleets.
What should we check when replacing an older attendance terminal?
Document the old model, enrollment database, credential types, attendance software, report format and synchronization method. The main issue is often data migration rather than physical replacement. Confirm whether existing face, fingerprint or card enrollments can be reused and whether the current software version supports Horus H1. Plan a short parallel-testing period before retiring the previous device.
Which software should we plan for?
ZKTeco lists ZKBio Time, ZKBio Security and ZKBioCV Security as supported platforms. The right choice depends on whether the project is focused on attendance only, broader security functions or an existing ZKTeco environment. Confirm software version, license requirements, server resources, administrator roles and reporting needs. A device purchase without this software plan can leave the buyer with an incomplete deployment.
What accessories and site items should be prepared?
At minimum, confirm charging equipment, suitable power points, SIM cards where cellular connectivity is used, network credentials and any protective carrying or storage arrangement required by your operation. Software licenses or server resources may also be part of the project. If the terminal will move between sites, prepare a simple handover checklist so charging, custody and synchronization responsibilities remain clear.
What information should we send FourTeck.com for an accurate quote?
Share the workforce size, number of locations, quantity of terminals, preferred verification methods, whether fingerprint is required, current ZKTeco software if any, mobile-network or Wi-Fi availability, existing card technology, reporting expectations and target deployment date. If this is a replacement project, include the current model and database workflow. Clear inputs help reduce configuration changes after purchase.
Business Requirements to Match Before You Buy
For mobile work crews
A suitable option when teams gather at changing work areas and a supervisor needs to bring the attendance point to them. Confirm device custody and charging routines.
For sites without permanent cabling
Wireless networking and battery operation can reduce dependence on fixed infrastructure. Check 4G coverage, Wi-Fi reachability and server access before rollout.
For organizations standardizing credentials
Face, compatible NFC credentials and QR workflows provide different enrollment paths. Existing badge technology should be verified before standardizing across a workforce.
For replacing fixed or older devices
Buyers replacing an older terminal should confirm software support, enrollment migration and report continuity instead of focusing only on the new hardware.
For multi-site reporting
The handheld can fit multi-site operations, but central software, synchronization policy, user administration and connectivity should be designed as one system.
For projects needing rugged operation
IP65 protection and a rugged casing support demanding environments. Still confirm real temperature, storage and handling conditions, especially for outdoor UAE projects.
These requirement-led checks help procurement teams compare the product against the real job rather than against another model number. A buyer who knows the workforce pattern, network environment, identity method and reporting workflow can make a much stronger decision about whether this portable platform is appropriate and which configuration should be requested.
What Buyers Should Check Before Purchase
The most common purchase mistakes with mobile attendance systems happen when the buyer orders the terminal first and defines the operating process later. Before requesting a quote, review the points below with HR, IT, site operations and procurement. Each team sees a different part of the requirement, and bringing those views together early helps avoid missing software, incompatible cards, weak connectivity or an unsuitable verification method.
Configuration Fit
Confirm whether the requested unit needs optional fingerprint hardware, which credential methods will be enabled and whether all required accessories are included. The base model name alone may not identify every project-specific choice.
Compatibility Check
Match existing NFC cards, ZKTeco software versions, server environment and network policy with the proposed terminal. For replacement projects, also review enrollment migration and reporting continuity.
Availability and Warranty
Ask for current supply status, lead time and warranty terms for the quoted unit. These can vary by supplier, configuration and order quantity, so they should be confirmed in the commercial offer rather than assumed from a generic listing.
Quote Preparation
Provide site count, employee volume, software, connectivity, credentials and required services. This lets FourTeck.com distinguish a simple device supply request from a complete attendance deployment that may need integration and support.
Also consider long-term operating cost. Mobile SIM subscriptions, server hosting, software licenses, replacement charging accessories, device protection and administrator time can matter more over a project lifecycle than the initial hardware difference between two models. If several terminals are planned, standardize configuration, naming, software version and enrollment policy from the beginning. A consistent fleet is easier to support than individually configured devices acquired at different times.
Finally, decide whether the business needs product supply only or installation, configuration, testing and handover assistance. Mobile attendance still benefits from structured deployment. A short acceptance test should confirm user enrollment, face or credential verification, network communication, software synchronization, GPS behavior where used, report generation and charging. FourTeck.com can help turn these points into a practical pre-order checklist so the selected product matches the operational requirement rather than being chosen on model name or purchase price alone.
UAE Availability and Service Support
FourTeck.com supports business inquiries for mobile biometric attendance equipment across Dubai and the UAE. Assistance can include product selection, configuration review, verification-method planning, software compatibility discussion, quote preparation and delivery coordination. Availability can change according to supplier status, chosen configuration, optional fingerprint requirement and order quantity, so buyers should request a current commercial offer rather than relying on a previous listing.
For a straightforward hardware requirement, share the model, quantity and delivery location. For a deployment project, include the number of employees, sites, shifts, attendance software and connectivity method. This allows FourTeck.com to help check whether the proposed setup needs SIM cards, specific software licensing, server resources or additional accessories. Warranty handling should also be reviewed at quotation stage so procurement teams understand the terms that apply to the supplied units.
If the terminal will be used in an outdoor or remote environment, describe the site conditions and daily working pattern. The team can then flag practical considerations such as battery charging, storage, mobile-network coverage and device custody. These details help create a more complete purchase plan for field operations.
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman Coverage
Businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman can contact FourTeck.com for product availability guidance, quotation support and help reviewing deployment requirements. A field attendance project in a major construction zone may prioritize 4G coverage and rugged handling, while an industrial site may focus on shift workflows, supervisor custody and software synchronization. A corporate customer moving staff between projects may place more emphasis on centralized reporting and consistent enrollment across several devices. FourTeck.com can review these differences before the order is finalized, helping the buyer request the same terminal with the configuration, software and support scope that fit the actual operating environment.
Regional Availability for GCC and Africa Projects
FourTeck.com also supports business technology inquiries for selected GCC and Africa markets through regional channels. Organizations operating across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain may need the same attendance method across several project locations, while businesses in Kenya, Uganda and other Africa-region markets may be planning mobile workforce attendance for construction, logistics, industrial or field operations.
Regional deployments should not assume that one communications plan fits every country. Mobile bands, SIM policies, software hosting, warranty handling, freight requirements and local technical support can differ. If the same Horus H1 fleet will be deployed across borders, it is sensible to define a standard device configuration while separately validating connectivity and support conditions for each location. This reduces the risk of ordering identical hardware that cannot use the same operational process everywhere.
For regional inquiries, buyers can also use FourTeck Kenya, FourTeck Uganda, FourTeck Africa and FourTeck Kuwait where relevant. Availability, delivery options and warranty arrangements remain subject to country, supplier status and order scope.
Other FourTeck.com Solutions to Consider
A mobile attendance terminal is often only one part of the workplace technology environment. Depending on whether the project also needs controlled entry, site networking or broader security infrastructure, the following FourTeck.com resources can help buyers review adjacent requirements before finalizing the order.
CCTV and Access Control Systems
Useful when attendance is part of a wider biometric access, door-control or surveillance project.
Networking, Firewalls and Switches
Consider this when attendance terminals need structured Wi-Fi, VLANs, secure server access or branch connectivity.
PoE and Managed Switch Planning
Relevant for sites combining access control, CCTV, Wi-Fi and other network devices that share the business infrastructure.
Project Consultation
For multi-site or integrated projects, share the full requirement so hardware, software and connectivity can be reviewed together.
When comparing alternatives, focus on workflow rather than only specifications. Fixed attendance terminals may be more appropriate for permanent office entrances, while handheld devices are stronger where mobility is essential. If the project also includes doors, cameras or networking, designing those systems together can simplify user administration and reduce deployment conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Horus H1 used for?
It is a handheld time and attendance terminal for recording employee attendance in locations where a fixed wall-mounted device may be inconvenient. It supports facial verification, NFC credentials, QR workflows, optional fingerprint verification, GPS-assisted location information and wireless communications. Typical deployments include construction, industrial, logistics, temporary and field-work environments where the attendance point needs to move with the operation.
Is the ZKTeco Horus H1 available in the UAE?
FourTeck.com can assist with current UAE availability inquiries and quotation requests. Supply status can change according to supplier inventory, order quantity and the required configuration, including whether fingerprint hardware is needed. Buyers should request a current offer that confirms the exact model, included accessories, warranty terms and expected delivery conditions rather than relying on a previous marketplace listing.
Does the device support fingerprint attendance?
Fingerprint verification is listed as optional. The manufacturer specifies a semiconductor fingerprint sensor, comparison time of up to 0.5 seconds and capacity up to 30,000 fingerprint templates for the option. If fingerprint is required for your project, make that requirement explicit in the quotation request so the supplied unit is not assumed to include an option that may be absent from a standard configuration.
Can it work on Wi-Fi and mobile data?
Yes. The published communication options include dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz Wi-Fi, 3G/4G mobile connectivity and Bluetooth. This is one of the reasons the terminal suits mobile or temporary sites. Before deployment, confirm the local mobile bands, SIM service, Wi-Fi security settings and route to the attendance software server so communication is tested under the same conditions the device will face in daily use.
Which software works with Horus H1?
ZKTeco lists ZKBio Time, ZKBio Security and ZKBioCV Security as supported software. The right platform depends on whether the organization needs attendance reporting only or a broader security environment. Buyers should confirm the software version, license model, server requirements and desired reports before ordering, particularly when the device is being added to an existing ZKTeco deployment.
How long does the battery operate?
The manufacturer specifies a 5200mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery and states that the terminal can operate for about five hours without recharging. Practical runtime can vary with screen use, wireless activity, cellular signal and verification frequency. For a full-shift deployment, plan charging or device rotation according to actual usage rather than assuming the stated figure will cover every operating pattern.
Can FourTeck.com help with configuration before purchase?
Yes. FourTeck.com can review the number of users and sites, preferred verification method, fingerprint requirement, NFC card type, Wi-Fi or mobile-data plan, software platform and related infrastructure before quotation. This is particularly useful for multi-site or replacement projects where compatibility and data migration may be more important than the basic hardware specification.
How do I request a business quotation?
Send FourTeck.com the required quantity, UAE delivery location, workforce size, number of sites, preferred biometric or credential method, whether fingerprint is required, current attendance software and expected deployment timeline. If you are replacing an older device, include its model and explain how reports are produced today. The additional detail helps the quote reflect the real solution requirement rather than only a hardware line item.
