PAX A920 Pro Charging Cradle | Part: L920PRO-BC-1E0
Product Overview
The PAX L920 Pro Charging Cradle (Manufacturer Part Number: L920PRO-BC-1E0) is an essential counter-top accessory designed specifically for the PAX A920 Pro smart payment terminal. This genuine base station provides a dedicated docking point for your device, keeping it upright, secure, and continuously powered between transactions.
By utilizing heavy-duty pogo pin contacts rather than a standard plugin cable, this cradle eliminates the physical wear and tear on the terminal's built-in USB-C port caused by constant plugging and unplugging throughout a busy trading shift.
Key Features
-
Drop-and-Go Charging: Features physical 6-pin pogo connectors that align automatically with the base of your A920 Pro terminal for instant power transfer.
-
Ergonomic Viewing Angle: Holds the screen at an angled position, allowing staff to easily monitor the display, check connection statuses, or enter amounts whilst the unit is docked.
-
Stable Counter-top Footprint: Engineered with non-slip rubberized feet and a weighted core to prevent the dock from sliding around on smooth till counters or service desks.
-
Preserved Port Longevity: Relocates the primary power input to the back of the static cradle, completely protecting the terminal’s mobile USB-C port from accidental damage.

Why Choose the L920PRO-BC-1E0 Base Configuration?
This specific base is a charge-only configuration, designed primarily for businesses that use the terminal's internal Wi-Fi or 4G data connections. Because it omits expensive, unneeded Ethernet (LAN) or dial-up telephone ports on the back, it offers a far more cost-effective way to keep multiple handheld units powered up across your shop floor or restaurant.
Built for Demanding Retail Environments
Plugging a charging cable directly into a handheld device dozens of times a day eventually snaps internal pins or loosens the port. The L920PRO-BC-1E0 entirely bypasses this issue. Staff can grab the terminal to take a payment at a table or down the queue, and drop it straight back onto the pins when finished, ensuring the battery never runs flat during peak trading hours.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Will this cradle fit the older, standard PAX A920?
No. The A920 Pro has a larger chassis, a bigger screen, and a different pin layout compared to the original A920 model. This base is engineered exclusively to match the physical dimensions of the A920 Pro terminal.
Does this base unit connect to the internet via Ethernet?
No, the L920PRO-BC-1E0 is the standard charging-only model. If you require physical network cables to plug into your base, you would need the advanced communication variant (which includes LAN and dial ports). This model is designed for terminals that already communicate perfectly well over Wi-Fi or mobile 4G data sims.
Can I leave the terminal on the dock overnight?
Yes. The terminal and the base station feature built-in power management circuitry that halts active charging once the lithium-ion battery reaches 100%, preventing over-charging and protecting long-term battery life.
