Panasonic System Solutions Company of North America, Division of Panasonic Corporation of North America (“Panasonic”), today announced availability of the TOUGHBOOK G2 with a 5G option. The rugged device will be available in the U.S. market supporting both 5G Sub6 and 5G mmWave network technologies. The 2-in-1 detachable future-proofs wireless communications capabilities for mobile workers.
In an increasingly connected world, mobile workers need data faster than ever before. With speeds 10x faster than 4G, reduced latency by up to 90% and increased capacity for uploading and downloading data in seconds, 5G will significantly transform the efficiency of daily workflows. For mission-critical teams, 5G ensures faster speed and reliable connectivity allowing them to collect data on the spot, and make informed, timely decisions. 5G’s strong encryption also allows mobile workers to safely and securely share sensitive information, and more effectively leverage trending advanced technologies from drones, to the Internet of Things (IoT), Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR).
“As 5G technology matures and network roll-outs continue across the U.S., front-line workers in the most rugged and challenging environments can now use the TOUGHBOOK G2 devices for their next generation business applications and use cases, which will require 5G connectivity,” said Craig Jackowski, GM of Product Management at Panasonic. “The introduction of a 5G-enabled TOUGHBOOK device is yet another example of our strong commitment to our customers by constantly improving and innovating our products and delivering the latest technologies to meet their ever-changing needs.”
From public safety and federal agencies, to utility field workers, 5G connectivity is available in both urban and rural areas. Mobile users will have access to information in real-time, increasing productivity and boosting efficiency. With enhanced video and streaming quality, mobile workers can better capture images in surveillance footage and share pertinent information in real-time. Emergency personnel using 5G can stay situationally aware, eliminating distractions and obstacles that slow connections can cause, when responding to incidents. Similarly, for mission-critical scenarios, clearer feeds mean that agencies using drones can better respond and allocate the necessary resources to tackle it. Combining all of these benefits of 5G connectivity with the TOUGHBOOK device capabilities such as long-lasting battery, modularity, and ruggedness, mobile workers across various industries can perform their jobs with greater efficiency that is required in today’s environment.
The TOUGHBOOK G2 product with the 5G option will be available in March 2022, starting at $4,099 MSRP on AT&T and Verizon networks. Customers can choose between the advanced 4G LTE option or the newly integrated 5G option.
