Secure Metering Device / Series II (SMD-II)
[email protected] - FIPS 140 #132
The Secure Metering Device / Series 2 (SMD-II) is an electronic device developed by Neopost Online that securely loads, stores, and dispenses revenue. The SMD-II is designed to meet the applicable USPS IBIP specifications for postage meters. The SMD-II attaches to and communicates with the host computer via a serial interface. The revenue is dispensed from the SMD-II to the host computer in the form of a digitally signed indicium, a unique bit pattern that can be determined to have originated from a particular SMD-II at a particular point in time.
