Panasonic Doubles Performance, Improves Features and Screen of Toughbook CF-19

Panasonic today announced the Toughbook CF-19mk5 with more than double the system performance, improved usability and unique new screen visibility technology. In field utilities, emergency services, defence, transport maintenance and a huge range of field services, the Panasonic Toughbook CF-19 is transforming the way professionals work by providing access to data and applications, wherever and whenever those professionals need it. As the market-leading outdoor convertible notebook PC, the CF-19 is the benchmark fully rugged notebook, built on 15 years of Panasonic Toughbook experience.
System Performance Doubles
System performance in the latest CF-19mk5 device has been doubled with the inclusion of second generation high performance Intel Core i5-2520M (2.5GHz) standard voltage processor with Intel HD 3000 graphics, ensuring the device is capable of handling the most intensive applications. This is the first time a standard voltage CPU and Intel HD 3000 graphics have been included in the CF-19 and still without the need for a fan, ensuring reliability in a challenging environment remains a priority.

As well as the new CPU, the CF-19mk5 also comes with 4GB RAM as standard with a 32bit or 64bit Windows 7 professional operating system bundle. Different Hard Disk Drives are also available with 320GB (5.400rpm) in the Standard model or with optional 128GB SSD or 256GB SSD and 500GB (7200rpm) available on a request basis.

The best screen visibility on the market
The CF-19 always ensures the screen delivers just the right level of brightness for easy vision whatever the conditions. To deliver the best 10,1” screen visibility on the market, the mk5 generation of the CF-19 uses Panasonic Transflective Plus technology. This incorporates circular polarizer to reduce reflection. This operating mode helps to reduce power consumption and enhance battery life as no backlight is required in bright environments. This results in a massive enhancement of up to 6,500nit of transflective brightness under an equivalent 200K lx environment. Readmore...
