Netbook Security Cart for Schools

Multimedia and Instructional Technology Gets Mobility and Protection in

Datamation Systems’ Latest Cart

SOUTH HACKENSACK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digital projectors and audio visual equipment are widely used in schools, training facilities and corporate offices, often in configurations that have to be shared or stored when they are not in use. Traditional carts provide little or no security for this valuable equipment. Now, a new, compact cart from DATAMATION SYSTEMS, the nation’s leading provider of notebook security carts, delivers storage and easy use for a variety of equipment config-urations while securing and recharging notebook PCs.

“This is simply the most versatile security cart ever made for AV equipment and notebooks,” reports Joe Mazza, Vice President of Datamation Systems. “With a single lock, projectors and multi-media equipment can be protected at a level of security previously only available in the best security cabinets. And these carts also provide storage and recharging for up to ten notebook or netbook PCs.”

These new carts provide an innovative, adjustable projector compartment that secures digital projectors and allows them to be tilted for optimum use with a single, external hand-crank adjustment. “Quick and easy adjustment is especially important when carts are moved from room to room,” said Mazza.

Adjustable storage shelves hold speakers, DVD/VCRs and other equipment. A side shelf is even finished with a “white board” surface for use with a document camera.

The multi-function cart’s new locking system provides an unprecedented level of security, especially compared to the cumbersome padlocks and wafer locks offered with other AV carts. A single key opens the cart for easy access and easy locking.

The cart is compact and easy to move, with an ergonomic push handle and welded steel construction durable enough for demanding institutional environments.

DS-MFC carts are available from major computer companies and directly from Datamation Systems. Additional information can found at Datamation’s Security webpage.

Datamation Systems, established in 1963, is the nation’s leading provider of notebook security carts, cabinets and anti-theft devices used to protect all types of equipment: notebook and desktop computers, printers, projectors and AV equipment. The company has also developed a number of multi-bay battery chargers to help manage battery use in classrooms and other settings.
