Expanded cellular network certifications
provide critical communication capabilities to mobile
workforces
Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), an innovator
at the edge of the enterprise with solutions and
partners that enable businesses to gain a performance
edge, announced today that the new Zebra® L10 Windows® tablet
series is certified for AT&T and Verizon Wireless’ cellular
networks. In addition, the rugged Zebra XSLATE™ D10 Android™ tablet
has received full certification with AT&T’s Enhanced
Push-To-Talk (EPTT) service for near real-time voice
communications, highly secure messaging, and location features
required for workers to stay productive in the field.
Zebra’s rugged L10 mobility platform which features the XSLATE
L10, XPAD™ L10 tablet PC and the XBOOK™ L10 2-in-1
laptop/tablet, is WWAN-certified and compatible with AT&T and
Verizon Wireless’ carrier networks. Separately, Zebra’s
Android-based XSLATE D10 tablet is certified with AT&T’s EPTT
service. Earlier this year, Zebra completed its acquisition of
Xplore Technologies Corporation, a leading developer of semi-,
fully- and ultra-rugged tablets, 2-in-1 laptops and a range of
performance matched accessories. The new network certifications for
these tablets strengthen the communications capabilities and
productivity of mobile workers in the transportation, utilities,
field service and public safety industries.
AT&T customers can now download the EPTT Android application
on the XSLATE D10 tablet via the Google Play™ store. Key features
include voice-based, one-to-one and group communications with up to
250 contacts, as well as the ability to transmit highly secure
images, videos, files, and voice recordings to both groups and
individual contacts in real-time. XSLATE D10 users can also share
their location data with contacts, giving supervisors the ability
to track group members or establish geo-fencing to manage the
movements of workers in and out of a job site.
The new AT&T and Verizon certifications further extend the
communication offerings available for Zebra’s industry-leading
enterprise mobile computing solutions. Zebra also offers Workforce
Connect (WFC) voice and message solutions for other parts of its
mobile computing portfolio, providing numerous communication
features that work over WWAN and WLAN networks and helping connect
mobile workforces in the field, retail stores, warehouses,
manufacturing plants and hospitals. WFC also leverages services
such as PTT, secure text messaging and PBX phone functionality
powering a more collaborative mobile workflow at the edge of the
enterprise.
“Professionals performing field service and asset management
need to instantaneously connect with one another while on the road
as well as in the field and require reliable mobile computing
solutions that facilitate continuous, two-way information flow
between front line workers and the back office,” said Tom McNeela,
Senior Director of Enterprise Mobile Computing Product
Management, Zebra Technologies. “The addition of these new
network certifications enhances Zebra’s enterprise-grade mobile
computing portfolio and provide industrial and public safety
customers with the performance edge needed to excel in demanding
environments.”
