Dell is breaking barriers when it comes to fully rugged laptops with
the introduction of the Latitude E6400 XFR. Engineered to meet the
needs of even the most demanding customers in the harshest
environments, the system meets a higher drop specification and offers a
greater level of dust and moisture protection than any fully-rugged
laptop in its class. The system is available now in Canada.
Designed for the military, first responders, oil & gas environments, manufacturing floors and field technicians, the Latitude E6400 XFR features the Dell-exclusive Ballistic Armor Protection System featuring PR-481, which leverages a high-strength substance used for applications such as cryogenics, aircraft components, military equipment and medical devices. Features of Ballistic Armor include:
- Twice the impact strength of magnesium alloy;
- 25 percent higher drop specification than any computer in its class - up to four feet with system powered down and closed and up to 36-inch drop test with the unit operating and LCD open;
- High compression strength for outstanding impact protection;
- Structural stability at extreme temperatures; and,
- Scratch resistance providing corrosion protection.
The Latitude E6400 XFR also features PrimoSeal Technology to enhance protection from dust and liquid with compression gaskets that deliver a higher level of ingress protection, or shielding from dust and moisture, than any system in its class with an IP65 rating.
The fully rugged laptop is engineered and independently tested to more than 13 military standards (MIL STD 810F) for operation in challenging environments. |
