NetAccess Multi-lane Deployments July 2008
Agenda
NETWORKING @ GHL
The award-winning NetAccess enterprise payment network equipment ensures dependable, steadfast, speedy yet affordable end-to-end connectivity for today’s financial institutions and merchants of all sizes. NetAccess development is driven by intelligent messaging & routing algorithm across industry-standard hardware, its strengths lie in its simplicity and flexibility to adapt, realizing quicker ROI compared to proprietary firmware or hardware based approaches.

CASE STUDIES
IKEA: Project Background
IKEA: Deployment Scenario Leased Line to Alliance Bank ISDN Line as Secondary Link Red denotes backup link to other NetAccess L-1000 boxes in event of failure
Cost saved by reusing existing wiring End to end implementation – 6 weeks Multiple connection to bank: Leased line (was not available during opening Aug 2004) ISDN Dialup (as backup to Leased Line) GPRS (used when Leased Line and ISDN was not available during opening) Multiple protocols suported for Terminal connection: RS485 RS232 TCP/IP IKEA: Some facts
ZERO downtime on Terminal payment acceptance since deployment! L1000 failed – redundant links maintained connectivity Leased line went down – ISDN backup Track record @ Ikea
Total of 14 Carrefour sites in Malaysia Number of terminals on site: 29 to 45 Using TCP/IP Terminals Implementation: 2-3 days Connectivity to Host: GPRS, with ISDN backup Implementation: Carrefour / UOB
Other Implementations - BTS Background Largest mall in Malaysia > 900 merchants Theme parks, Departmental Stores, Retailers, etc. No Telco dial-up charges incurred by merchants Setup & Configuration 24 x NetAccess L1000 spread across 2 towers (12 each) Redundancy across both towers Connectivity – Lease Line with ISDN On-Demand-Dial Re-use building telephone wires (Avg terminal distance ~ 250m!) Supports Credit Card, MEPS Cash, Debit-ePOS, Loyalty Interesting Bits Saved wiring costs of more than RM100K by re-using existing phone wiring Site implementation completed in 2 weeks Tower to tower distance of about 250m 12 stories of shop lots & indoor theme park
Background The LARGEST mall in the Philippines & Asia -  7 km long ShoeMart controls 65% of the Philippines’ retail market Setup & Configuration > 2000 Omni 3750 to be supported 10 x NetAccess W1000 across 2 sites (~15 km apart) 50/50 load-balanced & redundant across 2 sites 8 x lease line uplink (analogue & digital) per site to acquirers 2 x lease line downlink per site to 2 different telcos Fully redundant network configuration Interesting Bits Connected to 8 different acquirers each side Perform ON-US transaction routing for MDR cost savings Site implementation completed within 1 week (Phase 1) Setup, Configuration, Testing & Basic Training Other Implementations - ShoeMart
Able to reuse existing RS232 wiring or even telephone wiring for RS485 RS485 supports longer distances – can wire up larger premises Adaptable to customer environment – supports RS232, RS485, WiFi or Ethernet without much changes to terminal Multiple uplink options: Leased line / ADSL / ISDN / PSTN / GPRS.

Editor's Notes

  • #7 The netAccess X10 is GHL’s extender series. It is mainly used to extend the number of comm ports as well as the life of legacy terminals Terminals of devices are able to connect to it via RS232 or RS485 and the X10 will convert it to for IP connection
  • #8 NetAccess X-10 Payment Extender overcomes limitations of a single RS232 serial port prevalent in many existing POS terminals providing connections for: Electronic Cash Registers, POS Terminals & Contactless Readers • NetAccess X-10 Payment Extender converts RS232 connectivity into TCP/IP • NetAccess L-300 provides IntelligentFailover with multiple Uplink options & accepting up to 30 TCP/IP connections • Typical deployment: Multi-lane merchant deployment consisting of: — 3 Payment Devices (ECRs, POS Terminals & Readers) per counter — 1 NetAccess X-10 per counter — Single NetAccess L-300 per outlet • Advantages: Speedy deployment; enables use of existing terminal populations; multiple uplink options; low communications cost via single NetAccess L-300 (via GPRS)
  • #9 The L 100 series is a small merchant payment router. It has all the functionality as a network extender but has the added GPRS uplink capability It is able to accept RS232 and RS485 connections and route it via the GPRS or the Ethernet port
  • #10 NetAccess X-10 Payment Extender overcomes limitations of a single RS232 serial port prevalent in many existing POS terminals providing connections for: Electronic Cash Registers, POS Terminals & Contactless Readers • NetAccess X-10 Payment Extender converts RS232 connectivity into TCP/IP • NetAccess L-300 provides IntelligentFailover with multiple Uplink options & accepting up to 30 TCP/IP connections • Typical deployment: Multi-lane merchant deployment consisting of: — 3 Payment Devices (ECRs, POS Terminals & Readers) per counter — 1 NetAccess X-10 per counter — Single NetAccess L-300 per outlet • Advantages: Speedy deployment; enables use of existing terminal populations; multiple uplink options; low communications cost via single NetAccess L-300 (via GPRS)
  • #12 The L300
  • #16 IKEA, the world's largest home-furnishing retailer, opened its doors in Malaysia in August 2003. Featuring 35,811 m2 of floor space (roughly the size of 5 football fields) with over 7,000 home furnishing products displayed in 54 settings, IKEA is the largest furnishing store in South East Asia.
