Belkin Introduces New Mobile Device Management System for K-12 Education
Store and Charge Station Keeps Tablets, Laptops and eReaders Organized, Available, and Fully Charged for Less Hassle and More Learning in the Classroom
Playa Vista, CA, April 27, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Belkin, a trusted leader of technology solutions for office, classroom, IT infrastructure, and mobile environments, announced today its new Store and Charge station for K-12 education environments. Store and Charge offers an elegant, accessible, and affordable mobile device management solution designed to optimize digital learning. With the ability to store and charge up 10 devices simultaneously, the station makes it easy to keep tablets, thin and light laptops, and e-readers organized, available, fully charged, and ready for classroom use.
The station can store and charge different kinds of devices at the same time, each with its own charging cable or adapter, with an open setup that does not interfere with wireless syncing. Because it is platform agnostic, Store and Charge is suitable for most mobile deployments including all generations of Chromebooks, iPads, Samsung Galaxy, Samsung Note, and up to 13-inch laptops. Its small footprint reduces valuable table top space requirements when in use, and when stored, up to three stations can be mounted on a single cart. Other distinguishing attributes include a surge-protected power supply that protects device chargers from voltage spikes, wide device slots to accommodate most tablet cases, and integrated cable management.
"While mobile devices can provide tremendous advantages in today's increasing digital learning environment, teachers and administrators still struggle with integrating them in a seamless way," said Jon Roepke, senior product manager, Business Division, Belkin International. "Our goal was to design a product that would optimize the use of mobile devices in the classroom setting, enabling them to deliver greater value. Store and Charge makes it easy to deploy and support tablets and laptops, which means less hassle for teachers and more learning for students."
The Belkin Store and Charge makes it easy for teachers and students to distribute, store, and charge mobile devices in the classroom with additional features that include:
• Compatibility on standard AV carts for ease of transport from classroom to classroom or tabletop to storage location
• Easy-to-reach angles for storing and charging up to 10 tablet devices
• Built-in cable management features that minimize tangles and clutter
• Labeling space for personalization and identification
• 10 convenient surge-protected AC outlets that fit most charging adapters
• Surface mounting features that allow each unit to be securely attached to tables or carts
Availability
The Belkin Store and Charge will be generally available in June 2013.
The Store and Charge is part of a portfolio of education solutions from Belkin designed to enrich educators and students’ experience with technology in the modern classroom. For more information, please visit: http://www.belkinbusiness.com.
