JLT Mobile Computers has upgraded the wireless connectivity in its rugged computers. By integrating support for dual-band 802.11 ac, the company delivers dramatically faster WiFi network speeds of up to 867Mbit/s. This brings the freedom of Gigabit-Ethernet to the mobile environment, even in the harshest of working conditions. 

The new technology also supports more channels and therefore more clients on an NAP. This increased bandwidth delivers even higher reliability, as well as much lower latency over the network. In short, it allows more operatives to work more efficiently in even more diverse locations.

In addition to dual-band Wireless-AC WiFi, JLT has also integrated the latest Bluetooth EDR 4.0 technology, which simplifies pairing with a Bluetooth-enabled peripheral. The VERSO range also has the option to specify 4G LTE WAN connectivity with fallback capability to 3G and GSM, further increasing bandwidth and improving overall connectivity. The 4G option also includes Assisted GPS/GLONASS support. 

The WiFi technology now being deployed in the VERSO series and the JLT1214N logistics computers brings not only greater bandwidth but more intelligent network management, supporting bandwidth balancing that can adapt to the conditions of the network, such as demand and number of users. Furthermore, all of the company’s computers come with built-in highly sensitive Planar Inverted-F Antenna technology for both the WiFi and Bluetooth radio, designed specifically to deliver higher coverage in environments that offer poor RF coverage. For more challenging RF environments, such as steel cabins, the computers also support external antennas for both the WiFi and Bluetooth radio, which can be configured in the field, even after initial installation.

The JLT1214N, the VERSO series and the VERSO+ 10 products are available now with the technology upgrade.
