Xplore Expands Price and Performance Range of Category-Leading XSLATE R12 Rugged Tablet Portfolio
April 25 2017 - 9:00AM
Xplore Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ:XPLR) is expanding the pricing
and performance options for its highly-demanded XSLATE R12 rugged
tablet PC platform in order to accommodate customers’ evolving
mobile computing requirements, even within their fixed budget
parameters. Customers will now be able to order the exceptionally
powerful XSLATE R12 in two new Intel® 7th generation Kaby Lake CPU
configurations: The Celeron®-powered tablet PC starts at $2299
(base MSRP), while the Intel Core™ i7 vPro™ version will start at
$3299.
“Xplore rugged tablets are capable of effecting significant
workforce productivity gains without disrupting a company’s
business processes or IT efficiency,” noted John Graff, vice
president of marketing at Xplore. “The XSLATE R12, in particular,
is one of the most sought-after rugged tablet PCs in the global
market right now due to its unrivaled computing flexibility, broad
IT system interoperability and reputation for exceeding industry
performance standards. As such, we want to ensure that every
customer has the ability to take advantage of its unmatchable
benefits. By making the XSLATE R12 available in an even greater
range of cost and performance options, we are able to deliver a
best-in-class mobility solution that fits any customer’s
needs.”
Both of the new Celeron and Core i7 vPro XSLATE R12 rugged
tablet models are available in multiple configurations, and serve
as laptop and desktop replacements if desired. The XSLATE R12
tablet has a unique magnetically-attached, Companion Keyboard,
which can stow and recharge while docked or while on the go, as
well as touch and pen data input tools. The 800 Nit View Anywhere™
screen is protected by Corning® Gorilla® Glass, and remains the
best outdoor-viewable display in its class. The XSLATE R12 can also
be custom-configured with several connectivity options to ensure
workers maintain data accessibility no matter where they’re working
or the intensity of on-the-job demands. These include the SlateMate
module, featuring a barcode scanner and HF RFID reader, an RJ45 +
True Serial Port dongle, as well as pass-through antenna
capabilities for WWAN, WLAN, and GPS in both the tablet and Secure
Mobile Dock.
“No one sits still anymore at work,” Graff continued. “The
XSLATE R12 was specifically designed to eliminate downtime,
minimize security risks and improve both data and device
manageability for the millions-strong global mobile workforce. It’s
the no-compromise, and complete, mobile office solution that
today’s public safety, utility, construction, manufacturing and
insurance professionals need to stay productive whether they’re
multi-tasking or transitioning between multiple job sites.”
Customers who choose to upgrade to the Intel Core i7 vPro
processor will also benefit from increased security and mobile
device management tools. The added Intel® Authenticate solution
builds upon Xplore’s standard multi-authentication and biometric
tools to capture, encrypt, match, and store user data in the rugged
tablet. The built-in Intel Active Management Technology (Intel AMT)
also provides IT with easy remote maintenance and wireless device
management, plus secure drive wiping, to simplify PC lifecycle
transitions.
Both the Celeron-powered tablet PC and Intel Core i7 vPro
version will be fully available in May. For more information about
