Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
Designed for schools, government, training facilities, and corporate environments, the Tablet Cart (TAB16CS or TAB32CS) provides
a safe and easy way to store, transport, charge, and sync iPads. The cart not only provides a secure storage point, but it also
charges and has an optional syncing feature, to keep all users updated on the latest software, programs, and files. Personal
computer devices such as the Nook, Kindle, e-readers, and many other personal devices that charge through a USB connection
can also be charged and synced as long as the syncing computer has compatible syncing software for the devices. Those using
wireless environments to transfer data will only need the TAB16C or TAB32C. The Tablet Cart is available in capacities of 16 and
32. The TAB16C and TAB32C will provide charging only, while the TAB16CS and TAB32CS provide charging and sync capabilities.
They accommodate up to 16 or 32 devices. The sync port on the side of the cart (TAB16CS and TAB32CS) allows one computer
to be used to update the entire cart of tablets (charge/sync models only).
Hinged shelves open easily to feed power cables through and close tightly with protective foam to keep cords from moving once
in place. Plus, locking tambour doors keep contents secure.
2.2 Features
2.2.1 Tablet Cart Body
Venting design on side and rear panels allow for natural convective airflow to aid in cooling when doors are closed and lateral
airflow when doors are open.
• Includes (2) 5" swivel foot brake casters and (2) 5" rigid casters to provide easy maneuverability throughout a building.
• A three-point lock on the rear door limits access to the electrical components and cables so IT configurations remain secure.
• The cord winders (located on the handles) and grommets (1-
3
4" in diameter) allow neat and organized cord management when
moving the cart. One handle is included with each cart and each side panel features a grommet. Additional handles are available
for purchase.
100% of all painted steel components are powder coated finish (powder coating is the most environmentally safe coating
method available today).
2.2.2 Tray Inserts
• Attach to metal shelves and install front to back at a downward angle of no less than 4 degrees within the cart.
• Each tray is able to safely store 16 devices and is made from KYDEX (UL94 5VO rated).
2.2.3 Laminate Top
Durable 1
1
8" laminated wood top with T-molding enables use of printers, projectors, laptops, and other equipment on top of
the cart.
• Provides a smooth working and writing surface, unobstructed by handles or metal lip.
2.2.4 Charging and Syncing System Operation
Power is sequentially supplied to each device to provide simultaneous charging after sequencing that supplies a nominal 2.1A
+5V DC to each device. Power on sequencing consists of turning on each device one at a time, to prevent a current overload
when the charge mode is set, or to prevent a syncing computer USB port jam when the sync mode is set.
