ZKTeco X628-C Fingerprint Time Attendance Terminal in Dubai, UAE
A standalone fingerprint attendance terminal for structured employee time recording, networked data transfer and practical workforce check-in at offices and business sites.
The model is designed around fingerprint verification, a color display, local attendance storage and data transfer through TCP/IP or USB-host. Optional card, Wi-Fi, ADMS and multiple-verification functions depend on the selected revision. Because ZKTeco documentation varies by region and the current Classic Series listing marks X628-C as EOL, buyers should confirm exact hardware revision, software fit and supply status before purchase.
A Practical Fingerprint Attendance Terminal for Structured Workforce Recording
The X628-C is built for organizations that need a dedicated staff attendance point rather than an informal spreadsheet, paper register or receptionist-managed process. Employees enroll a fingerprint and use the terminal to register attendance activity, while administrators can retain transaction history on the device and transfer data to compatible attendance software. For businesses with a fixed entrance, staff gate, production office, school administration area or branch reception, this creates a more consistent daily clocking process.
The most important verified capacity figures are straightforward: the terminal stores up to 3,000 fingerprint templates and up to 100,000 attendance records. ZKTeco’s current global product listing shows a 2.8-inch screen, TCP/IP and USB-host data management, supported software including ZKBio Time.Net and ZKBio Time, a DC 5V 0.8A power requirement, and verification within one second. Optional functions listed by the manufacturer include Photo ID, ADMS, ID/IC/HID card support, Webserver, external printer and bell support, Wi-Fi and multiple verification modes. Those optional items should not be assumed to be present in every unit.
A key procurement detail is that ZKTeco has published several regional datasheet revisions over the life of this model. Some regional materials describe a 3-inch screen, serial connectivity or different power adapter ratings. That does not mean every device in the market has identical hardware. A buyer replacing an existing unit should therefore compare the part revision, connectivity ports, software environment and any card-reading requirement instead of ordering only by the model name.
For UAE buyers, FourTeck can help turn these technical details into a practical purchase request. Share the approximate employee count, number of terminals, required verification method, whether the system must connect by Ethernet or work with USB export, the attendance software already in use, and whether the requirement is a replacement or a new deployment. This information helps determine whether X628-C remains suitable or whether a newer ZKTeco attendance platform would be a better long-term fit.
Why Businesses Use a Dedicated Biometric Attendance Point
The value of the terminal comes from making attendance capture consistent, traceable and easier to manage across a defined workforce.
A Repeatable Clock-In Process
A fixed attendance terminal gives employees one defined process for registering work time. That is easier to manage than combining handwritten sheets, supervisor messages and ad-hoc spreadsheets. Fingerprint verification also links the attendance action to an enrolled biometric template, which can reduce dependence on shared cards or manually entered names. For HR and operations teams, the practical benefit is more structured source data for reviewing attendance exceptions and producing reports through compatible software.
Suitable for Many Small and Mid-Sized Workforces
With capacity for 3,000 fingerprint templates and 100,000 records, the terminal can support many ordinary office, education, retail and operational deployments without reaching local storage limits quickly. Buyers should still size the solution around employee turnover, number of fingers enrolled per person and frequency of record synchronization.
Network or USB-Based Administration
TCP/IP allows the device to participate in a managed local network workflow, while USB-host support provides another route for attendance data handling. This is useful for sites that prefer centralized attendance collection as well as locations where an administrator may need a practical offline transfer method.
Optional Functions Can Be Matched to the Requirement
ZKTeco lists optional features such as card technologies, Wi-Fi, ADMS, Photo ID, web functions, external bell or printer integration and multiple verification modes. That gives buyers flexibility, but it also means an order must be checked carefully. An X628-C listing that mentions the model name alone does not guarantee a particular optional reader or communication feature. FourTeck can help buyers specify the required function before quotation.
Clearer Planning for Replacement Projects
Because the current ZKTeco Classic Series page marks X628-C as EOL, replacement projects should consider both immediate compatibility and future maintainability. A direct replacement may be useful when an existing environment depends on the model, while a new project may benefit from reviewing a current-generation alternative.
Fast Daily Verification
The current global specification lists verification within one second. In practical terms, a responsive check-in process helps reduce queues at the start of a shift when the terminal is positioned correctly and employee fingerprints are enrolled properly.
Confirmed Strengths and Important Revision Notes
The terminal combines biometric enrollment, local record storage and straightforward attendance data handling in a compact wall-mounted device. Its capacity is well suited to many single-site workforce deployments, and the manufacturer supports software-led administration rather than forcing the device to operate only as an isolated clock.
The buyer should pay equal attention to what varies. ZKTeco’s current global page and regional documentation are not identical in every line item. Screen size, serial ports, Wi-Fi treatment, software naming and power details appear differently across revisions. FourTeck therefore treats the exact offered unit and its datasheet as the final reference for quotation.

For a replacement purchase, use the label on the installed terminal and the existing software environment as part of the comparison. If the current system depends on card verification, serial communication, ADMS or a particular ZK software version, include that requirement in the quote request. For a new deployment, it may be more practical to compare a current-generation ZKTeco terminal with ongoing product lifecycle support rather than specifying an older model solely because it is familiar.
How to Specify the Right Attendance Setup
The correct purchase decision depends on more than fingerprint capacity. Confirm how the device will be used, how data will move to HR or attendance software, and whether optional verification features are required.
Employee Count and Enrollment Plan
Count active users and decide whether each person needs one enrolled finger or more. Multiple templates per employee consume capacity faster, which matters when a large workforce or high staff turnover is expected.
Software and Network Fit
Check whether the planned attendance software supports the exact terminal revision and communication method. Existing users should provide the software name and version rather than assuming all ZKTeco software generations are interchangeable.
Verification Method
Fingerprint-only deployments are simpler. If the organization also needs ID, IC, MIFARE or HID card workflows, verify that the offered unit includes the appropriate optional reader and that the credential technology matches the cards already in use.
Location and Power
Place the terminal where staff can clock in safely without blocking an entrance. Confirm a stable power source, indoor environmental conditions and a sensible Ethernet route if network synchronization is planned.
Replacement Compatibility
For an existing X628-C replacement, compare ports, adapter requirements, card-reader option and software protocol. Older and newer regional variants may not be identical even when the front model name appears the same.
Legacy Model or Newer Alternative?
If the requirement is a new project rather than a direct replacement, compare a current ZKTeco attendance terminal for longer lifecycle planning, current software alignment and easier future sourcing.
For a useful quotation, send FourTeck the model, quantity, approximate employee count, required verification methods, current attendance software, preferred connectivity, deployment location and whether installation or migration support is needed.
Where This Attendance Terminal Fits
The device is best used as a dedicated workforce attendance endpoint where staff physically pass a predictable location during the workday.
Office Staff Attendance
For corporate offices and administrative sites, the terminal can be positioned at a staff entrance or reception-side check-in point. Employees verify at arrival and departure, and the recorded transactions can be transferred to supported attendance software. This is useful for companies that want a consistent source of time records rather than relying on department-by-department manual tracking.
Schools and Training Centers
Administrative, teaching and support staff can use a shared attendance point where schedules are regular and the organization wants a digital record of staff presence. The buyer should confirm whether the requirement is strictly staff attendance or a broader access-control project, as those are different system designs.
Warehouses and Workshops
Operational sites often have defined shift start and end times. A fingerprint terminal installed in a clean, protected indoor area can provide a simple check-in point. For large shift changes, consider queue flow, number of terminals and enrollment quality so verification remains practical.
Retail and Service Branches
Branch teams can use local attendance capture where the business wants a repeatable process across shops, service centers or back-office staff areas. Multi-branch buyers should confirm how records will be centralized and whether a newer cloud-oriented attendance platform would provide better long-term administration.
Replacement for Existing X628-C Installations
The strongest case for sourcing this exact model can be a legacy environment where the organization already uses X628-C terminals and wants to minimize changes. Even then, compare revision, ports, software and optional readers before treating a replacement as a plug-in swap.
When a Newer Model May Be Better
For a new deployment with no compatibility constraint, current lifecycle, software roadmap, authentication choices and remote management may matter more than matching this older terminal. FourTeck can review suitable ZKTeco alternatives if long-term availability is the priority.
X628-C Fingerprint Capacity and Daily Verification
The terminal’s 3,000-template capacity is the main sizing figure for user enrollment. It is large enough for many ordinary business deployments, but the practical number of employees can be lower when multiple fingers are enrolled for each person. Organizations should plan enrollment rules before rollout rather than filling the database without a standard.
Verification is specified within one second on the current global page. Real-world speed also depends on fingerprint quality, sensor cleanliness and user technique. During implementation, staff should be shown how to place the finger consistently, and administrators should enroll a clear fingerprint rather than rushing the registration process.
X628-C Attendance Data Transfer and Software Integration
Attendance hardware is useful only when the organization can collect and use the records. The current ZKTeco global page highlights TCP/IP networking and USB-host data management, while its supported software list includes ZKBio Time.Net and ZKBio Time. This gives buyers a networked option for routine administration and a removable-media route where an offline workflow is preferred.
If the company already has attendance software, the first question should be compatibility, not feature count. Provide the software name, version and current terminal model to FourTeck. A newer terminal with a different communication service may require migration planning, while a legacy replacement may need a specific protocol or optional function to remain compatible.
X628-C Optional Verification and Expansion Choices
The manufacturer’s optional-function list is one of the most important parts of the buying decision. Card technologies, Wi-Fi, ADMS, Photo ID, Webserver, external printer or bell support and multiple verification modes are not guaranteed on every unit simply because they appear in a product family datasheet.
State the exact credential technology used by the organization. ID, IC, MIFARE and HID are different requirements and should be matched to the selected device option.
If Ethernet cabling is not practical, ask whether the offered revision includes the appropriate Wi-Fi option and whether that setup fits the site’s network policy.
Sites considering bell signaling or external printing should verify interface support, the required accessory and configuration steps instead of assuming general peripheral compatibility.
A good procurement request separates mandatory functions from optional preferences. That makes it easier to determine whether a currently available X628-C revision meets the need or whether another ZKTeco attendance device is a cleaner choice.
What Buyers Should Check Before Purchase
The biggest risk is buying an X628-C by model name alone and discovering that the supplied revision does not match the existing software, communication method or optional card requirement. Confirm the exact operational need before price comparison.
Configuration Fit
Confirm employee count, fingerprint enrollment policy, record-retention workflow and whether fingerprint-only use is sufficient. If card verification, Wi-Fi, ADMS or another optional function is mandatory, place that requirement in writing on the quotation request.
Compatibility Check
Identify the existing attendance software and version, network method and any legacy serial connection. Replacement buyers should also provide a photo of the current device label and connection ports when possible.
Availability and Warranty
Because the model is marked EOL on the current manufacturer series page, stock position can change by supplier and region. Ask FourTeck to confirm current sourcing, warranty terms, included accessories and whether a supported alternative should be considered.
Quote Preparation
Provide quantity, staff count, verification method, software, network requirement, delivery location, target date and whether installation, data migration or user enrollment assistance is expected. Clear inputs make the quotation more useful and reduce later changes.
Buying Support for Dubai and UAE Businesses
FourTeck supports business inquiries for biometric attendance and access-control requirements in Dubai and across the UAE. For X628-C, the first task is to confirm whether the exact model and required revision are currently obtainable, since lifecycle status and regional versions can affect supply. Availability may vary by supplier source, required options, order quantity and project timing.
Review employee capacity, required verification method, software compatibility and whether a newer ZKTeco terminal should be considered.
Confirm quantity, destination and required date so product sourcing and delivery planning can be discussed before order confirmation.
Warranty terms depend on the current supply source and order. FourTeck can clarify available warranty information at quotation stage.
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman Coverage
Businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and other UAE locations can contact FourTeck for biometric attendance product selection, availability guidance and quotation support. The requirement may be a single attendance terminal for a small office, multiple devices for branch locations, or a replacement unit that must work with an existing ZKTeco environment.
For multi-site projects, provide the number of employees at each location, preferred data synchronization method and whether attendance records must be administered centrally. This helps determine whether a traditional standalone terminal is sufficient or whether a newer centralized platform should be evaluated before standardizing hardware across sites.
GCC and Africa Availability
FourTeck also supports business technology inquiries across selected GCC and Africa markets through regional inquiry channels. Organizations in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, Kenya, Uganda and other markets may have different product availability, import conditions, warranty handling and software expectations, particularly for an older attendance model.
For regional projects, avoid assuming that an X628-C sourced in one country is identical to a unit documented in another. Share the target country, quantity, required card technology, software environment and any installation deadline. FourTeck can then discuss current supply options or an appropriate newer alternative based on the requirement.
Other ZKTeco Options Buyers May Consider
The right alternative depends on whether the project needs a direct legacy replacement, a newer fingerprint terminal, more modern software integration or broader biometric choices. FourTeck can confirm suitable current models at quotation stage.

ZKTeco X628-C Buyer FAQ
What is the X628-C used for?
It is a fingerprint time attendance terminal used to register employee clock-in and clock-out activity. Staff enroll fingerprints and verify at the device, while attendance records are stored locally and can be transferred through supported communication methods to compatible attendance software. It is intended for workforce time recording rather than being treated automatically as a complete door access-control system.
How many fingerprints and records can it store?
ZKTeco’s current global specification lists capacity for 3,000 fingerprint templates and 100,000 attendance records. The effective employee count depends on how many fingerprint templates are enrolled for each person. Organizations with large workforces should also plan how often records are synchronized or archived rather than relying only on the maximum local storage figure.
Does it support cards or Wi-Fi?
The manufacturer lists card technologies and Wi-Fi among optional functions, so these should not be assumed to be standard on every unit. If your project requires ID, IC, MIFARE, HID or wireless networking, specify the exact requirement when requesting a quote. FourTeck can help confirm whether a currently available revision supports the required option.
Which software works with the terminal?
The current global ZKTeco page lists ZKBio Time.Net and ZKBio Time as supported software. Older regional documents may name earlier software generations. If you already have attendance software, provide the software name and version before ordering because compatibility can depend on the terminal revision and communication protocol, especially in legacy replacement projects.
Is the X628-C still a current model?
ZKTeco’s current Classic Series listing marks X628-C as EOL, meaning buyers should confirm current supply and lifecycle support before planning a new deployment. The model may still be required for an existing system or replacement need, but a newer terminal can be a better choice when there is no compatibility reason to remain with the older platform.
Why do some datasheets show different specifications?
ZKTeco has released regional and historical documentation for the model. Current global material lists a 2.8-inch display and DC 5V 0.8A, while some regional documents describe a 3-inch screen, serial communication or different power details. The safest approach is to use the datasheet for the exact quoted revision as the final reference.
Can FourTeck help with replacement compatibility?
Yes. Provide the model, a photo of the existing unit label where possible, the attendance software and version, the current connection method and any card-reader requirement. FourTeck can use those details to discuss whether a currently available X628-C revision is appropriate or whether migration to another ZKTeco attendance device should be considered.
Is delivery support available in the UAE?
FourTeck can coordinate delivery requirements for Dubai and other UAE locations based on current product sourcing, quantity and order details. Delivery timing should be confirmed during quotation rather than assumed, particularly for an EOL model. Share the destination, required quantity and target date so availability and delivery planning can be reviewed together.
What information should I send for a quote?
Send the exact model, quantity, employee count, fingerprint or card requirements, current attendance software, preferred connectivity, delivery location and target date. For replacement projects, include details of the existing device and software environment. This allows FourTeck to prepare a more relevant product discussion and identify compatibility questions before the order is finalized.
Can businesses request multiple terminals?
Yes, project and multi-unit inquiries can be discussed. For multiple locations or high shift volumes, include the number of sites, users per site, central software requirement and preferred data synchronization method. The project may benefit from several terminals or a newer centralized attendance solution, depending on how the organization wants to manage workforce data across locations.
