KY-TB-A Panel Mount Metal Touchpad Mouse
KY-TB-A is a patented panel mount touchpad mouse with a high flexibility touch panel on a 304 stainless steel face measuring 83 * 110 mm.
Product Overview
KY-TB-A is a patented panel mount touchpad mouse with a high flexibility touch panel on a 304 stainless steel face measuring 83 * 110 mm. It resists dirt dust and liquids and draws under 60mA which makes it easy to add to a crowded USB budget. It is chosen where a trackball would collect debris but a pointing device is still needed.
- Touch panel has no moving ball to jam with dust or debris
- Compact 83 * 110 mm front panel with a 107 * 134mm body
- Resistance to dirt dust and liquids with a robust vandal resistant design
- Working current under 60mA is low for a panel pointing device
- 304 stainless steel front panel and keys over an aluminum rear panel
- Optional installation kit and desktop kit for bench use
Application Scenarios
- Console panels where debris would jam a trackball
- Self service terminals in dusty locations
- Industrial equipment operator stations
- Public information terminals
- Bench test stations using the desktop kit
- Retrofits replacing a failed trackball module
Who It Is For
- Terminal and kiosk manufacturers
- Industrial equipment builders
- System integrators retrofitting pointing devices
- Public sector equipment suppliers
Problems It Solves
- Trackball mechanisms collect grit in dirty environments
- Pointing devices add too much current on loaded USB buses
- Loose mice cannot be secured to a public console
- Liquids reach the electronics of open pointing devices
Technical Features

How It Compares
| Trackball modules | A touch panel has no ball seat to collect grit in dirty environments |
|---|---|
| KY-TB-38 | Under 60mA draw against the trackball version for tight power budgets |
| Plastic touchpads | A 304 stainless front panel and keys over an aluminum rear panel resist vandalism |
Use Guide
- Cut the fascia for the 83 * 110 mm front panel
- Allow 107 * 134mm overall clearance
- Mount from the rear or add the desktop kit
- Operate between -10 and 50 degrees C
- Wipe the touch surface clean rather than scraping it
