It meets the MIL-STD-810H drop test, which measures the durability of equipment during load/unloading and transportation. The S14I is also the first in its class to offer an ingress protection rating of 53 (IP53), making it suitable for use in locations where rain or dust may be a regular occurrence. The device has an operational range of -4°F – 140°F allowing for use in a wide range of environments.

Cost-Effective, Total Solution

The Durabook S14I features an Intel® Tiger Lake 11th-generation platform, using Intel’s 10nm processor technology, and comes with the all-new Intel® Iris Xe graphics, which delivers transformational GPU and integrated graphics offering amazing HD video capabilities.

For intensive graphic computing, it can be upgraded to an optional standalone NVIDIA GeForce® GTX1050.

The unit is equipped with the latest NVMe PCIe SSD solution, providing up to 1TB of storage, while its PCIe offers speeds 6x faster than SATA III. The S14I can accommodate two additional internal SSD SATA III drives to maximize onboard storage.

High Reliability, High Performance

With a combination of Wi-Fi 6 AX201 and Bluetooth® V5.1, the Durabook S14I delivers ultra-high speed data-transmitting capability, ensuring that all information is instantly synchronized and sent back to the data center.

Adding ultra-long battery life of 10 hours and battery swap capability to its mobile form factor, the S14I enables non-stop operation outside of the office.

Clarity is a must in public safety and the S14I provides it with a large 14″ Full HD 1080p display and proprietary DynaVue® technology. The brightness enhanced up to 1,000 nits and special light-filtering technology provide a high contrast ratio, eliminating reflection.

Its 10-point capacitive multi-touch panel with four touch modes (glove, stylus, water, finger) optimizes the unit for virtually any application.
