GammaTech to Introduce Latest Rugged Durabook Tablet for the Utility Industry at DistribuTECH Conference and Exhibition
Fremont, CA January 28, 2013 – GammaTech Computer Corp., a major international manufacturer and supplier of innovative notebook and tablet computers, is set to introduce its latest rugged tablet designed and engineered for demanding applications such as those found in the utility industry. The high-end unit, model TA10, features a 10.4² display with high performance CPU, ultra-high brightness LCD, and Intel Ivy Bridge processor. It will be a key product in the company¹s booth (#429) at the DistribuTECH Conference and Exhibition in San Diego from January 29-31.
³We are delighted to be able to introduce our new Durabook TA10 rugged tablet at DistribuTECH, the utility industry’s leading smart-grid conference and exposition,² commented Jen Chen, GammaTech president. ³This new tablet makes perfect sense for utility workers out in the field with its ultra-high screen brightness for easy viewing. Its ruggedness and durability stand up to virtually any harsh environment. Its mobility factor is enhanced with Bluetooth and Intel WiFi wireless connectivity as well as an optional internal GPS function.²
On-the-Go Features
The unit features a 10.4² XGA TFT LCD display with LED backlight. A resistive multi-touch panel with tempered glass is included for enhanced viewing of drawings, files, and web pages. Display options include a sunlight readable panel and a digitizer with active stylus. The TA10¹s two six-cell battery packs provide longer battery life. For easy in-the-field identification and tracking purposes, the unit comes with an optional UHF RFID reader and Barcode scanner. Optional accessories include a handle, hand strap, and docking station.
Security is always a concern with computers used in off-site locations. For that reason, the TA10 boasts features such as TPM 1.2 data security technology, Kensington lock connector, and Intel anti-theft technology (AT) or Computrace asset management and data protection. A FIPS 201 fingerprint scanner for digital imaging of fingerprint patterns is also available.
Ivy Bridge Processor
The new GammaTech rugged TA10 tablet comes with the option of either an advanced Intel Ivy Bridge i3-3217UE or i7-3517UE processor. Both provide outstanding performance, lower power consumption, and a smaller footprint. Its mobile Intel QM77 Express Chipset provides integrated USB 3.0 protocol on a single-chip architecture while offering enhanced manageability and security. Storage sizes of 320GB, 500GB, or 750GB are provided with the 2.5² HDD. Also available is an optional 64GB or 128GB mSATA SSD.
Other Applications
