• Accidental operational drops, bumps and knocks
• Extreme hot and cold temperatures High shock and random vibration
• Protection from ingress of dust, sand, water and other contaminants

• Corrosive environments such as salt fog, fungus and solar radiation
• Hazardous Locations

iX104 products feature over 30 unique RUGGED design characteristics to withstand damage in harsh environments:

• High Density Magnesium Alloy Chassis
  A custom multi-layer enclosure, compression seals, structural frame, ISO-damp cushioning for LCD and specialized Hard Drive mounting.
• Contoured Bumper Protection System
  Protects the product on all three (X,Y,Z) Axis for a total of 26 different directions (all sides, corners and edges).
• Thermal Management System
  A combination of conductive heat transfer and forced convection cooling in sealed "finned" transfer bay.
• Pin and Pad Docking Connector & XPL
  Expansion Ports-gold coated pogo-pin style docking connector for high throughput providing rugged, sealed connection and expansion capabilities for system growth.

• Drops, Bumps, and Knocks
  The internal frame, outer chassis, and bumpers work in concert to absorb, deflect and dissipate energy. The iX104 handles drops, while operating, from 4ft directly to concrete.
• Multi-Faceted Data Protection System
  Includes external and internal shock dampening, in addition to a custom-engineered drive carrier, Solid State Drives and optional RAID (0,1) for data redundancy
• Vibration & Shock
  iX104 products are subjected to and pass Military Standards for Transit & Crash Shock and Random, Vehicular and Truck Vibration. Police cars, fire trucks, army tanks, submarines, coast guard boats, service trucks, fork trucks, manufacturing lines, shunt trucks...Xplore's iX104 has been there!
• Piston Gasketing Technology
  Dust, Sand and Water- iX104 products are IP67 certified, which means that they are totally protected against all dust low pressure jets of water from all directions!

• MIL-STD-810G: The Military Standard for Environmental Testing and Engineering Guidelines (MIL-STD-810G)
• MIL-STD-810G is used for determining the effects of natural and induced (man-made) environments on products intended for use in harsh outdoor or mobile environments
• Includes guidance for accelerated or aggravated testing during the design process to assess product suitability for the environmental conditions anticipated throughout its life cycle

• IP67: IEC International or Ingress Protection (IP) rating testing classifies the degrees of protection provided against the intrusion of solid objects (including body parts like hands and fingers), dust, accidental contact, and water in electrical enclosures
• UL1604 (C1D2)/ATEX: Hazardous Location (HazLoc) Certifications validate that products will not cause ignition in highly combustible environments
• 461F: Higher grade of military emissions testing as defined by MIL-STD
