The new Tablet Charging Cart is a mobile charging cart that can hold up to 40 iPads (including cases) in individual, numbered charging bays. The unit also offers Anthro's optional Sync Kit, which provides a 10-port USB hub for synchronizing up to 10 tablet devices simultaneously.
Other features include:
- Keyed door locks with two-point locking system;
- Cable management features for quick connections;
- Padlock mounting points;
- A separate back locking door for accessing cables and adapters;
- Three power ports for external devices;
- Power on/off and power indicator light; and
- 4-inch locking casters.
The Tablet Charging Cart measures 24" (H) x 24" (D) x 46" (H) and has a recessed top workspace for holding a projector or laptop, along with a separate locking area for a laptop. An optional under-mounted storage drawer holds peripherals.
The Anthro Tablet Charging Cabinet holds up to 20 tablets and a laptop. |
The company has also started shipping the Anthro Tablet Charging Cabinet, a wall-mounted charging station that can hold 20 individual tablet devices. The cabinet measures 21" (W) x 12" (D) x 24" (H) and includes two main locking compartments--a front area with 20 numbered charging bays and a side area for IT access.
