If you’re thinking about investing in rugged technology for the first time, the chances are that you might have heard some of the myths and misconceptions about what rugged is and isn’t. You might think that it’s heavy and bulky to carry around or that rugged devices cost more than comparable consumer devices without being that different. But before you jump to any conclusions, you need to have the facts. We know rugged technology practically better than anyone, and we’ll set you straight with the facts.

As more and more functions in industry and the workplace become computerised, the use of rugged technology across a wide range of applications has become the norm.
Certainly, there’s no denying that rugged computing products often cost more money than their off-the-shelf counterparts – but the moment you start taking your equipment outside the normal office environment, you’ll find that this extra cost will pay off in the long run.
It’s the latest dilemma – do you need a rugged device, or would a consumer equivalent be the right choice? There are plenty of assumptions feeding into this decision. People think rugged is heavier and more expensive but are consumer devices tough enough for working on the move? Which has the more advanced technology? It’s time to cut through the supposition and get to the facts.
Ever since people started to use technology onsite or on the move, there has been a need for rugged versions – but in the early days these were clunky and heavy, and didn’t keep up with state-of-the-art consumer technology. Now that’s all changed and you can find fully rugged pieces of equipment that are every bit as stylish and futuristic as their consumer equivalents.
When you’re looking at rugged technology and trying to decide which device will be right for the job, you’ve probably come across IP ratings – the letters IP, followed by a number, for example IP65 or IP67. So what exactly do they mean and how much notice should you take of them?
Tough environments demand tough components – not least your motherboard. Whether you’re working in the field, in a hostile environment or in using it in an embedded industrial application, you need a motherboard that can withstand all you’re going to throw at it.
