The TEC TE-FPA-CA1 is a cabled biometric node engineered for Windows Hello Business environments. Technical specifications indicate support for Enhanced Sign-in Security (ESS), which provides a more robust authentication path compared to consumer-grade dongles. The integrated 5ft cable allows the capacitive 360° array to be positioned for optimal user reach, reducing mechanical stress on host machine ports.
Hardware auditing reveals that biometric processing occurs locally within the isolated environment provided by the host's Trusted Platform Module (TPM). The sensor is designed for high tolerance of finger orientation, though its performance is sensitive to low humidity conditions which can affect capacitive skin conductivity.
- Physical Build: Fixed USB-A cable; capacitive sensor module.
- Security Support: Windows Hello Business; ESS compatible.
- Operational Throughput: 1.0s login speed.
Reliability protocols recommend adjusting Windows Device Manager settings to prevent the system from disabling the USB port during power-saving cycles, which can lead to "Device Not Found" errors.
Should the fixed cable design be a point of potential failure for your specific application, the COPLKY USB Fingerprint Key Reader offers a direct-plug solution with similar 360-degree recognition technology.
This unit is classified among usb fingerprint readers as a cabled ergonomic solution for professional workstation security.
