GammaTech Computer Corp., a manufacturer and supplier of notebook and tablet computers, announced that its latest Durabook high-end, rugged tablet, designed and engineered for demanding industrial and field applications, is now available.

“Our latest industrial-strength tablet not only withstands the harshest elements, but also is loaded with features that make it the ideal unit for both industrial workers inside a building as well as workers out in the field,” commented Jen Chen, GammaTech president. “Features such as an ultra-high brightness 10.4” LCD display with LED backlight, resistive multi-touch panel with tempered glass, sunlight-readable panel, digitizer with active stylus, Bluetooth and WiFi wireless connectivity, and an optional internal GPS function make it the ideal tablet for these individuals.”

The GammaTech rugged TA10 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. A 2.5” HDD provides storage sizes of 320GB, 500GB, or 750GB. Also available is an optional 64GB or 128GB mSATA SSD.

Security is always a concern with computers used in off-site locations. For that reason, the TA10 includes security measures 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. For easy identification and tracking purposes, the unit also comes with a UHF RFID reader. The TA10’s two six-cell battery packs provide longer battery life.
