What makes a device “rugged”?

There is no universally accepted definition. With a growing need for reliable mobile computing, PC and tablet vendors have seized the opportunity to cash in by releasing modified versions of mainstream laptops as cheaper alternatives. This will inevitably lead to disappointment, devices that fail in the field, or potentially disastrous situations in mission-critical deployments.

This white paper will shed light on the key differences between “knock-off” and professional-grade ruggedness, why ruggedness matters, and why ruggedness lowers the overall cost of ownership.

In this white paper, you’ll learn about:

Why non-rugged laptops have a 5X higher fail rate than rugged laptops

The safety standards required to be met by purpose-built rugged computers

The challenges of unsubstantiated ruggedness claims – and the consequences

The importance of ruggedness testing and certifications

A list of procurement questions to ensure reputable equipment

How mobile systems can be designed to withstand environmental challenges
