Dual-Certifications and Easy Integration
HIT-W121 is dual-certified. It complies with both EN60601-1/UL60601-1, as well as EN 60950 standards. This makes it suitable for environments that require medical-grade technology for a complete range of application support. HIT-W121 is 43mm slim, and operates fanlessly. It uses VESA75 mounting technology which allows it to fit easily different mounting scenarios. The small form factor and lightweight unit is suitable for many uses, and the single-piece design of the front panel makes it easy to clean.

A built-in webcam, speaker and microphone enable internet communication options and there is a privacy indicator to notify the user when the camera is active.
