Yes, rugged devices initially cost more than commercial and traditional consumer offerings. But the extremely low failure rates and tailored productivity-enhancing features of Toughbook mobile devices mean an altogether lower total cost of ownership (TCO) for your business.


Research undertaken by industry analyst firm IDC, shows that many organisations would significantly benefit by investing in rugged notebooks, tablets and handhelds for their workforce.

TOUGHBOOK rugged notebook PCs and tablets are no ordinary devices. Our specialist engineers and production professionals design and build every part of every model. So each form, feature and function is purpose built with you in mind.


Microsoft has partnered with Panasonic to develop a new class of secure PC. Designed with deep integration between hardware and software and featuring the most advanced CPUs available, Secured-core PCs are intended to handle mission-critical data in some of the most data-sensitive industries. A Secured-core PC is a modern Windows device that comes with the highest level of hardware, software and identity protection ready right out-of-the-box.


Microsoft's new Windows 11 operating system offers faster load times, enhanced security features and improved battery life, making it easier for your workers to connect with their TOUGHBOOK on the go. Get ready to experience best-in-class speed, power, and security.


For example, all components in our devices are flexibly mounted for greater durability. The cabinets and chassis are designed with great torsional strength and we use gold-plated connectors in our products to avoid rusting. Even our AC adapters and USB connections are tested and specially made to deliver the ultimate rugged experience.


The screen technology found in TOUGHBOOK devices is a finely tuned combination of rugged capabilities and maximum user convenience. So, to withstand the bumps and bruises of working life, our screens are flexibly mounted in magnesium-alloy, rather than screwed rigidly to the cabinet, allowing them to absorb shocks far more readily than other PC notebooks and tablets.


The touchscreen technology found in our products also meets the twin challenges of premium utility and rugged durability. Panasonic capacitive screens are ideal for performing accurately and responsively in all conditions, while proprietary technology allows users to operate them even when wearing heavy industrial gloves. Signature-recognition technology adds to their in-field capabilities, while polished-down, outdoor readable screens make TOUGHBOOK easy to use outdoors, on the move.


When configuring our TOUGHBOOK devices, we can include almost everything a customer can think of. That includes all standard industry ports, as well as all legacy ports (True Serial, etc), and support for HDMI, VGA and full-size USB (Type C).


So every aspect of our products is designed to keep weight down. Injection molding of magnesium alloy allows us to create very detailed, complex but extremely light bodies; while careful structural analysis means we can bore holes into the devices to reduce overall weight without reducing ruggedness (an approach we share with the aircraft industry).


Welcome to the TOUGHBOOK world, where excellence in rugged computing meets unparalleled reliability. As the frontrunners in the rugged computing market, we pride ourselves on working closely with our customers to understand their unique needs. Our commitment to innovation and quality ensures that TOUGHBOOK remains the top choice for those who demand the best in rugged technology. Meet the toughest portfolio consisting of

But, these things are rugged I have had tough books that were run over, burned, submerged in fuel, and dropped on the deck from 30 feet and these things kept going after op check. Compared to other rugedized laptops, I would not recommend anything over a tough book if you are going to be in computer hazardous areas.


I have used the 19, 21, 29, 30, and 31. That looks like a mostly better version of the 19/31 but with swivel. We never used the swivel tops due to that being the weakest point when dropped on the deck while open.


Hello there. I placed 5.0 rolling into an old Panasonic tough book made in '06 I believe. Wifi not detected. I honestly have no clue what to do. I've read other threads but I have no idea where to start. I'm a newbie and would highly appreciate step by step.


Slitaz doesn't include the firmware for most wireless adapters. The user has to identify the wifi adapter,install the package that has the correct firmware,reload the adapters kernel module.

Not newbie friendly.


Hello Mojo. Saw that you have helped many people and that's cool man. The tough Book is CF-29 and the info I have is: Intel Corporation Dual Band wireless -N 7260. I'm up for a challenge with this installation. Thanks
