The
first entry in Panasonic's third-generation of moderately priced magnesium-alloy
encased, shock-and-water resistant notebooks, Toughbook CF-28 features
Panasonic's new SuperSheet shock damper, four times the water-resistance rating
of previous models, ultra-high output TFT with touchscreens, a key lock
anti-intrusion system, integrated wireless and network communication capability
and streamlined configuration and expansion options. The CF-28 is both an
evolutionary step up in Toughbook design, and it is also a revolutionary
computer using proprietary technology to create a combination of performance,
durability and flexibility never before seen in this kind of computers. The
CF-28 is resistant to water spray from the top, bottom and all sides at any
spray angle. Fully sealed display screen, keyboard, touchpad, port and hinge
fittings provide dust and debris protection and new elastomer corner protectors
improve drop-damage protection. A new thermal-management system that disperses
CPU heat throughout the top half of the case helps maximize the performance and
extend the lifecycle of temperature-sensitive components. Increased chassis
space created by the low-profile polymer hard-drive shock damper is used to
endow the CF-28 with an array of internal communication and connectivity options
previously unheard of in a notebook-sized portable computer.
