RAM Mounts rectangular base plate

RAM Mounts Rectangular Base Plate for Mobile Terminals

If your barcode scanner, wireless payment terminal, or handheld device needs a fixed home — on the counter, the workshop reception desk, or in a vehicle — this RAM Mounts base plate gives it one. Made in the US, it's built for the kind of daily punishment a busy café or retail floor hands out without a second thought.

Dimensions and connection

The plate measures 50.8 × 127 mm: compact enough to sit unobtrusively on a counter, large enough to give most mobile terminals a stable footing. It ships ready to use with a 1.5" C-ball joint, which fits every RAM Mounts C-series arm and holder in the range. That ball joint lets you tilt and swivel the terminal freely — point it toward the customer at the till, or angle it away from the window glare in the workshop.

Why it works for your business

• ·Stays put during the Friday-evening rush. Four-screw surface mounting means the plate doesn't shift when the counter is busy and the device is grabbed and replaced dozens of times a day.
• ·Compatible with every RAM Mounts C-series arm. If you decide to change the arm or add a longer reach later, the plate stays in place — no need to start again.
• ·Straightforward installation. Four screws into the surface, no specialist tools required. Most owners have it mounted in under fifteen minutes.
• ·Made in the US with the quality control RAM Mounts is known for — the kind that handles knocks, spills, and daily wear without loosening over time.

Who it's for

This plate suits cafés and restaurants where a wireless terminal needs to live in one spot but still face whoever is serving. Retailers benefit from keeping a barcode scanner exactly where the till operator expects it. For bike workshops and car repair shops, it gives the reception terminal a solid mount on the desk or bench without any permanent construction work.

What's in the box

The plate and C-ball joint arrive in a protective poly bag, installation-ready. Fixings are not included — standard countersunk screws fit the mounting holes.
