By using the rugged, shock-resistant Panasonic mobile Toughbook, enterprises can minimize the cost of losing business opportunities, time for repairing & purchasing additional equipment, leakage of confidential company data and causing customer dissatisfaction due to accidents like dropping of notebook.

The Toughbook was built to provide extra protection for carrying. Incorporating a newly developed magnesium alloy cabinet and body structure, it was subjected to repeated physical verification tests, such as a pressurized vibration test and 90 or 120-cm free fall test#^, to achieve its excellent toughness and durability.

#Testing Standard:
Dust-Resistance Test: IEC60529 (JIS C0920) IP6X
Free Fall Test: MIL-STD 810G (120cm drop)
Vibration Test: MIL-STD 810G
EMI Test: MIL-STD 461F

#Test conducted in non-operating condition. The shock resistance, vibration resistance, dust proof and splash-proof functions are not a guarantee against damage or malfunction.

Seamless silicone rubber covers all body joints, preventing water drops from penetrating in all directions. You can safely use the Toughbook on outdoor sites exposed to rain, dust, and dirt.
