Panasonic Toughbook H2 Tablet PC Debuted
Panasonic Solutions Company announced via a press release the Toughbook H2 tablet today. The new fully-rugged, handheld device will be a Windows tablet PC designed for field service workers, first responders, and those with other demanding jobs.
“Panasonic is committed to providing our customers the ultimate in performance, mobility and connectivity,” said Kyp Walls, the director of product management for Panasonic Solutions Company. “The Toughbook H2′s enhancements are designed to provide mission-critical workers with additional functionality and computing capabilities. The H2 maintains the same level of durability as the previous models and continues the H1′s industry-leading reliability of less than one percent annualized failure rate.”
The next generation Toughbook H2 features a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5-2557M vPro processor, 4GB RAM space, and a 320GB 7200rpm hard disk drive. All of those components will come with upgrade options according to Panasonic.
The Toughbook H2 weighs in at 3.5 pounds and offers its users 6.5 hours of battery life. The tablet will also be equipped with quick-charging twin hot-swappable batteries to keep the battery life as high as possible. The charge time has been reduced to three hours as well.
The tablet will have a 10.1 inch dual touchscreen with Panasonic’s TransflectivePlus display technology equipped. It will feature a molded hand strap for more rugged use and has a six foot drop rating.
Panasonic noted the Toughbook 2 will hit the global market by the end of July and will reportedly be priced at or around $3,449.

Toughbook H2 in Healthcare
For healthcare environments, the Toughbook H2 has been designed for easy disinfection, and does not require a fan, reducing the risk of potentially pathogenic microorganisms being spread from patient to patient. The device is a secure and intuitive platform for barcode medication administration (BCMA), vitals capture and electronic medical records (EMR) capture and review. To further aid in disinfection, a Panasonic-designed software utility can be programmed to remind users to wipe the unit down at defined intervals. The utility automatically records a successful cleaning for the hospital’s permanent records.
