Integrated wireless
From the field or from the security of your patrol car, in any weather condition, Panasonic Toughbooks are wireless real-time partners. They support all current nationwide wireless networks including GSM/GPRS and 1xRTT/CDMA as well as 802.11 Wi-Fi. Toughbooks will also:
Support next-generation technologies such as EDGE and EV-DO
Access federal, state and local crime databases
Run license plate checks
Download mug shots
Receive secure, computer-aided dispatch calls
Re-create accident scenes
Transmit incident reports
Run forensic courtroom presentations

Outdoor-readable touchscreen LCDs
You’ll never strain to view a Toughbook’s outdoor-readable TFT Active Matrix Color LCD—from the brightest outdoor sunlight to inside your patrol car. There’s also an optional touchscreen so you can quickly navigate through industry software, easily complete incident reports and search data bases without keying in information.

Integrated GPS and AVL
Toughbooks’ optional integrated GPS lets you quickly access maps, street locations and driving directions—without leaving your vehicle or relying on outdated printed maps. You’ll arrive at crime or accident scenes faster, eliminating the critical delays that can occur when driving through unfamiliar territory, and with Toughbooks’ optional Automatic Vehicle Locating (AVL)
system, you can locate officers or squad cars sent to remote areas or those who have lost contact with dispatchers.

The price of mobility
When law enforcement personnel are equipped with notebook PCs, they can be productive anywhere, anytime. However, most laptops are not designed for work outside the station and are at a significantly greater risk of being damaged. In work settings as demanding as those found in law enforcement, laptop damage can occur in a number of ways: drops, spills, dirt, dust, extreme temperatures and vibration. If a laptop fails, there can be significant repercussions. Even a brief period of downtime has a ripple effect that can impact productivity and public safety.


Most laptops are not built with the outside world in mind. In fact, industry research indicates that average annual failure rates are 25% for laptop deployments. When downtime, lost work and repairs are figured into the lifetime costs of other notebooks, the ultimate price of an ordinary laptop increases substantially.
