About Near Field Communication (NFC)
NFC technology provides the ability for short-range, WWAN data transfer between
the EDA51 and NFC tags or other NFC enabled devices placed in close proximity to
the back of the computer. All EDA51 mobile computers support the following
modes of operation:
• NFC tag reader/writer mode: The computer reads and/or writes digital
information from or to an NFC tag.
• Peer-to-Peer (P2P) mode: The computer uses Android Beam and/or Bluetooth
technology to transfer screen content (e.g., a picture, contact information, Web
page URL, or file) between NFC enabled devices.
• NFC card emulation mode: The computer emulates an NFC card (smart card)
that an external card reader can access. You can download and install apps for
card emulation mode from the Google Play™ store. Some examples include
digital wallets (e-wallets) offered by your bank or credit card company and
Google Pay™. The app you install determines the type of emulation mode used:
Card Emulation with a Secure Element or Host-based Card Emulation.
Secure element use is common for financial transactions that require a high
level of security in order to provide a secure memory and execution environment
for running custom smart card applets and storing your personal information
(e.g., account information and credentials).
Note: When using a Universal Integrated Circuit (UICC) card for NFC Secure Element NFC
link encryption, install the card in SIM slot 1.
