Nayax VPOS Touch Ethernet: Which Adaptor and Network Details Do You Need?

A network outlet beside a vending machine does not establish that its payment terminal is ready for Ethernet. For a Nayax VPOS Touch installation, confirm the terminal adaptor and the site’s address-assignment method before booking the connection work.

Nayax’s official Ethernet setup guide presents Ethernet as an alternative when cellular reception is insufficient for VPOS Touch. The preparation below follows that named terminal’s documentation. It does not establish a wired interface on every WEIMI cabinet or describe a completed customer installation.

Order the terminal adaptor, not just a network cable

The device branch of Nayax’s guide says a VPOS Touch needs an RJ11-to-RJ45 adaptor from Nayax. It shows the small end connecting to the terminal’s RJ11 port and an Ethernet cable connecting to the larger end. The other end of the cable goes to the available network switch or Ethernet router/modem port at the site.

Include the exact terminal model when requesting the adaptor. Confirm the supplied part and whether it is included in the order. A generic cable with similar-looking ends should not be substituted on appearance alone. The guide directs buyers to their local distributor if the Nayax shop is unavailable in their region; it does not establish worldwide stock or delivery times.

Ask site IT whether the connection uses DHCP

The guide asks whether Ethernet is available and whether the network uses DHCP or static IP. It explicitly points operators to the onsite IT professional for these answers. In its DHCP branch, Nayax states that the device is automatically assigned an IP address on that network type.

Give site IT the terminal’s documented requirements and identify the intended outlet. Automatic address assignment is one part of setup, not proof that payment services are reachable. Agree who will configure and check the connection using the provider’s current instructions.

Prepare the complete static IP information

For a static IP network, Nayax asks for the default gateway, assigned IP address, DNS Server 1, DNS Server 2 and subnet mask from the person managing the onsite network. Collect this information through the approved installation or support channel.

Have the network owner supply the values for the actual site. Do not copy settings from another machine or invent an address to complete a form. Keep the live network details in the controlled installation record rather than a public article or cabinet label. This checklist identifies the required information; it is not a substitute for the terminal’s configuration procedure.

Separate the payment connection from the cabinet connection

Identify which device the new cable serves. An online vending-management dashboard does not by itself prove that a separately connected payment terminal has working service. Likewise, a working terminal connection does not establish that every cabinet function uses the same path.

For building cabling acceptance, see our permanent-link and final-cord test guide. A cable report and a successful payment workflow answer different questions. Coordinate the payment provider, machine supplier and site IT so their responsibilities meet at the installed configuration.

Confirm backup behaviour on the supplied configuration

The Nayax guide says the device is designed to use cellular service as a backup when Ethernet is lost. Confirm the relevant service and configuration with the provider before relying on that behaviour at your site. The statement does not prove backup service for every WEIMI model or every payment arrangement.

Use the provider-approved process for installation, reboot and verification. Agree a normal payment-and-delivery check and, if backup operation is required, an authorised demonstration of that specific behaviour. Record the observed result without treating this preparation guide as evidence that the checks have already passed.

For a new project, tell WEIMI your destination, proposed payment terminal, site connection type and installation owner. Request a quotation identifying the supplied interfaces and any third-party setup responsibilities. Get My Custom Quote.
