NEXA CB710B Small Black Cash Drawer — Compact, Secure and Built for Tight Spaces
Not every business has the luxury of a wide service counter. In compact retail environments, small cafés, healthcare reception desks, food trucks, market stalls, and tight hospitality setups, every centimetre of counter space counts. The NEXA CB710B Small Black Cash Drawer was designed precisely for these environments — delivering a fully functional, commercially built cash drawer in a compact 350mm wide footprint that fits where standard drawers simply cannot.
At $93.99 with steel construction, a 4-note 8-coin drawer, roller ball bearings, RJ12 connectivity, and a secure 3-position lock, the CB710B is one of the best-value compact cash drawers available in Australia. If your business needs a proper cash drawer but your counter space is limited, the CB710B is the answer.
Why Australian Businesses Choose the NEXA CB710B
The CB710B earns its place on the counter because it solves a genuine problem — most cash drawers are simply too wide for compact workstations. Standard drawers measure 410–460mm wide, which makes them impractical for businesses with narrow counters, small POS terminals, or shared workspaces. The CB710B narrows that down to 350mm — a meaningful reduction that opens up the CB710B to a wide range of businesses that standard drawers cannot serve.
And despite its smaller width, NEXA has not compromised on the things that matter: steel construction, proper note and coin capacity, smooth roller ball bearings, and a genuine security lock. This is a compact drawer that is still built for commercial use — not a scaled-down toy.
Key Features of the NEXA CB710B Cash Drawer
Compact 350mm Width — Fits Where Standard Drawers Cannot
At just 350mm wide (versus the 410–460mm width of most full-size cash drawers), the CB710B is designed for environments where counter space is at a premium. It sits comfortably on narrow retail counters, small café bars, reception desks, market stall tables, and any workspace where a standard-width drawer would either not fit or would crowd out other essential equipment. The compact 90mm height also keeps the drawer low-profile and unobtrusive on any counter surface.
4-Note, 8-Coin Drawer Insert — Full Cash Handling Capacity
Despite its narrower width, the CB710B still delivers a 4-note, 8-coin drawer insert — giving your staff the note and coin capacity needed to handle Australian currency efficiently throughout the trading day. The 4-note slots accommodate all major Australian note denominations, and the 8-coin compartments provide ample space for coin sorting and management. The insert is made from ABS plastic, which is lightweight, easy to clean, and removable for end-of-day cash counting.
Steel Construction — Commercial-Grade Durability
The CB710B is built from steel construction — not the lightweight plastic body found in budget-category cash drawers. Steel construction means the drawer body holds up under the repeated daily open/close cycles of commercial use without warping, cracking, or losing structural integrity. For a business opening its cash drawer dozens or even hundreds of times a day, the quality of construction directly impacts how long the drawer will last and how reliably it will perform.
Roller Ball Bearings — Smooth, Quiet Operation
The CB710B uses roller ball bearings on the drawer slide, ensuring the drawer opens smoothly and quietly every time. This is a detail that matters in customer-facing environments — a drawer that sticks, rattles, or slams open creates a poor impression and adds friction to what should be a seamless transaction. Roller ball bearings also extend the operational lifespan of the drawer mechanism significantly compared to cheaper slide designs.
RJ12 Interface — Compatible with Most POS Printers and Terminals
The CB710B connects via an RJ12 interface, compatible with a wide range of POS receipt printers and POS terminals. The drawer operates at 24V when connected to a POS printer, and may operate at 12V or 24V when connected directly to a POS terminal or PC — depending on the model. If you are unsure which voltage your system requires, the OnlyPOS team can confirm compatibility before you order — call 1300 183 340.
3-Position Security Lock with Locking Bar — Secure Cash Handling
Cash security is non-negotiable, regardless of drawer size. The CB710B features a locking bar and 3-position key lock, giving you full control over drawer access at all times. Lock the drawer when the register is unattended, unlock it for normal operation, or set it to a fixed position when appropriate. Two keys are included, and the locking bar provides an additional layer of physical security that keeps the drawer firmly closed when locked.

If your counter space is tight or your POS setup is compact, the CB710B is the right choice — it delivers everything you need in a smaller, more affordable package. If your counter has room for a standard-size drawer and you want the extra note slot, all-metal construction, and 2-year warranty, the NEXA CB910 series is the natural step up. Not sure which suits your setup? Call the OnlyPOS team on 1300 183 340 — we are happy to help.
Understanding the Voltage — 24V vs 12V
The NEXA CB710B operates at 24V when connected to a POS receipt printer via the RJ12 interface — this is the most common connection method. When connecting directly to a POS terminal or POS PC, the required voltage may be 12V or 24V depending on the specific model of terminal you are using. If you are unsure which voltage your system outputs, check your receipt printer or POS terminal specifications, or contact the OnlyPOS team on 1300 183 340 for confirmation before ordering.

How wide is the NEXA CB710B cash drawer?

What interface does the NEXA CB710B use?
The NEXA CB710B uses an RJ12 interface, compatible with a wide range of POS receipt printers and POS terminals. Note that RJ12 is a 6-pin connector — slightly different from the RJ11 (4-pin) used by some other cash drawers. If you are unsure whether your printer uses RJ11 or RJ12, contact the OnlyPOS team on 1300 183 340 for compatibility confirmation.
What voltage does the NEXA CB710B operate at?
The CB710B operates at 24V when connected to a POS receipt printer. When connected directly to a POS terminal or POS PC, the required voltage may be 12V or 24V depending on the terminal model. Always confirm the output voltage of your POS equipment before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
How many note and coin slots does the CB710B have?
The NEXA CB710B has a 4-note, 8-coin removable drawer insert made from ABS plastic. The 4 note slots accommodate Australian currency denominations, and the 8 coin compartments provide ample space for coin sorting and management during the trading day.
Is the NEXA CB710B suitable for a café or small retail store?
Yes. The CB710B is specifically designed for compact counter environments like small cafés, boutique retail stores, market stalls, and kiosks. Its 350mm width fits where standard cash drawers cannot, and its steel construction and roller ball bearings ensure it performs reliably under daily commercial use.
What is the difference between the NEXA CB710B and CB910?
The key differences are width and note capacity. The CB710B is 350mm wide with 4 note slots — designed for compact spaces. The CB910 series is 410mm wide with 5 note slots — the standard full-size option. The CB910 also carries a 2-year warranty versus the CB710B’s 12-month warranty. Both use steel/all-metal construction and come in black or white options.
Does the NEXA CB710B come with a security lock?
Yes. The CB710B includes a locking bar and 3-position key lock with 2 keys provided. The locking bar adds an additional layer of physical security, and the 3-position lock gives you control over locked, unlocked, and fixed-open positions — ensuring secure cash handling at all times.
Is the NEXA CB710B compatible with Epson receipt printers?
The CB710B uses an RJ12 interface. Compatibility with specific Epson receipt printers depends on whether the printer’s drawer kick port uses RJ11 or RJ12. Many Epson models use RJ11 — if your printer uses RJ11, an adapter cable may be required. Contact the OnlyPOS team on 1300 183 340 to confirm compatibility with your specific printer model before ordering.
Can the NEXA CB710B be used with an iPad POS system?
Yes, the CB710B can be used with iPad-based POS systems provided the system’s receipt printer has an RJ12-compatible drawer kick output and supplies the correct voltage (24V via printer, or 12V/24V via terminal). Contact the OnlyPOS team to confirm compatibility with your specific iPad POS printer setup.
