Panasonic Toughbook CF-54 rugged laptop

The Panasonic Toughbook CF-54 is a 14.0 inch fully rugged laptop built to MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD-461F and IP65 standards. It runs Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i5-5300U processor at 2.3 GHz with 16GB memory and a 256GB SSD. The HD multi-touch display resolves at 1920 x 1080 and includes a digitizer pen for precise input in the field.

Upgrade from consumer ultrabooks

This unit replaces standard business notebooks that lack drop, vibration, dust and water resistance certified to the same military specifications. The jump is worth it when work takes place on construction sites, in emergency vehicles or in manufacturing plants where a standard chassis would fail. Integrated GPS, a smartcard reader and a fingerprint reader remove the need for separate peripherals that can break or get lost.

Sustained operation in harsh environments

The fanless thermal design and sealed ports maintain performance during long shifts in temperature extremes without throttling from dust ingestion. Intel HD Graphics 5500 handles mapping, documentation and diagnostics software steadily rather than in short bursts. Wireless connectivity uses 802.11a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.1 to keep links alive inside metal structures where consumer antennas drop out.
