IRVINE, CA. -- Getac Inc., a leading innovator and manufacturer of rugged computers that meet the demands of field-based applications, announced the introduction of its new S400 semi-rugged notebook specifically designed for use in a variety of field applications including utilities, field service, public safety, as well as military applications including vehicle and office use.
The S400 offers two processor options including the powerful Intel Core(TM) i5 2.4 GHz processor, MAX 2.93 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Technology. The S400 incorporates several features essential for field use including a bright, 700 NITS display with glove-friendly multi-touch touch screen technology, water resistant keyboard with optional backlit keys, IP5X and MIL-STD 810G compliant for temperature, shock, vibration and optional Gobi(TM) 2000 mobile broadband technology. With an integrated Gobi 2000 mobile broadband card, the S400 can be easily configured for multi-carrier wireless deployments.
The S400 body is made using Getac's new KryptoShell(TM) body material. This new KryptoShell body allows the S400 to meet or exceed MIL-STD-810G temperature, shock, vibration specifications including a 2.5 foot drop on six faces.
"With the power of an Intel Core i5 Processor, a 700 NIT multi-touch display option and Gobi 2000 mobile broadband technology options, the S400 is ideal for the demanding mobile workforce," explains Jim Rimay, president, Getac.
