CHERRY JK-8500EU-2 Stream Keyboard
CHERRY stands for the highest standards of reliability, durability, and an incomparable typing feel. The CHERRY STREAM KEYBOARD improves what millions of satisfied users already appreciated in its predecessor. The classic has been updated for a new age. Especially in the office environment, input devices are our daily companions and are used for hours. The STREAM KEYBOARD sets new standards in this area and has the potential to become the most popular keyboard. The mixture of conventional design, a pinch of elegance, and simple purism make the keyboard the ideal companion in the office and at home that can suit many tastes. Thanks to the integrated metal plate, the STREAM KEYBOARD will impress users with its outstanding torsional stiffness and stability despite its slim design. The two feet and eight rubber pads on the underside also ensure a firm stand when folded in and out.
CHERRY scissor technology has always been associated with an incomparable typing feel and uncompromising precision. During development, special attention was paid to the noise created by typing. The noise development has been further reduced in comparison with the very quiet predecessor model. This makes the keyboard the first choice for offices with many workplaces or if you like to type quietly. Our careful selection of materials ensures that the letters stand out clearly from the keys and that you can work in a fatigue- free manner. The status LEDs for CAPS LOCK , NUM and SCROLL LOCK integrated directly into the key are a unique feature that is otherwise only found in much higher price ranges.
The red status LEDs show you at first glance whether the caps lock key has been pressed. Ten additional practical keys make work in Microsoft Office and multimedia applications easier. It includes six commonly used keys for controlling your multimedia player. In addition, the browser, email, and calculator functions give you easy access to frequently used commands at all times. A lock button allows users to log out at the push of a button before leaving their workstation. This is particularly invaluable in the office environment. Despite these additional keys, no separate drivers are required.
The STREAM KEYBOARD is a plug&play device. In working environments, in particular, compliance with guidelines, quality, and environmental goals is obligatory. For CHERRY , these goals are also part of its corporate philosophy. This is why we have put our efforts into our successful bid to gain the “Blauer Engel” award. In addition, the GS “Safety Tested” seal certifies that the product complies with all relevant European directives and regulations relating to health protection. Are you looking for a reliable companion who will not let you down in your daily work or your private life? The CHERRY STREAM KEYBOARD is a perfect choice.
