4 Ways Panasonic TOUGHBOOKS Keep First Responders Connected

Written by GovDirect | January 05, 2023

For first responders and emergency personnel, a reliable laptop ensures fast and accurate data entry in the field, saving time so they can focus on saving lives.  Panasonic trailblazed this space in 1996 with the first reliable and rugged TOUGHBOOK laptop, featuring powerful technology that improves information sharing. 

Let's now highlight four ways TOUGHBOOKS continue to help first responders stay connected today:

1. Instant Information

There is nothing more important to first responders than accessing critical patient information in real time. When responders are working with overly sensitive or faulty touchscreens, bad screen visibility in full sunlight or a dark vehicle, and short battery lifecycles can add up to result in a considerable amount of time added to patient care time.

These problems are a thing of the past once upgraded to a Panasonic TOUGHBOOK.  These laptops and tablets are designed with high data throughput in mind, boasting large, user-friendly touchscreens, wireless connectivity, and highly durable exteriors.  When using a TOUGHBOOK, sending critical data takes just a few clicks.  Much less time is required to sort through complex documents or lengthy patient care records.

 

2. Adaptive to Multiple Environments 

TOUGHBOOK laptops, convertibles, tablets, and handhelds are built to endure the rigors of the field.  This includes being subjected to rainwater, dust, chemicals, intense climates, and other elements.  Whatever your job entails, wherever it may be, Panasonic will be there to help you get the job done with mobile computing solutions that ensure you stay connected to other first responders. 

 

3. Quality Control

Panasonic is the only major producer to design, engineer, construct, and test its rugged mobile computers in-house; thus, the company has complete control over the manufacturing process and can guarantee the highest quality standards in every unit. This means that compared to other rugged computers, TOUGHBOOK has a higher reliability rate, greater parts availability, and better lifecycle management. 

 

4. Wireless Connectivity

TOUGHBOOK laptops incorporate wireless antennae which means that the user receives signal, even in places with poor coverage. Panasonic has one of the largest anechoic chambers in the world, and TOUGHBOOK makes a significant effort to reduce noise and interference so that it can offer the greatest wireless performance possible.
