| Overview |
| The Rugged
Case for the hp iPAQ Pocket PC is designed and tested to resist
display damage, dust and water contamination, and damage caused by
dropping the iPAQ Pocket PC from a height of up to four feet. The
rugged case makes it easier for hp iPAQ Pocket PC users to take
their handheld wherever they go. A hard plastic cover on the Rugged Case
protects the iPAQ Pocket PC, yet still allows the user to view
its screen. When the cover is raised, the replaceable, clear protective
screen protector of the case remains revealing the screen beneath
allowing the user to interact with the iPAQ while still
maintaining protection. The lower portion of the screen protector can
flip up to access the fingerprint reader on the iPAQ 5400 series
Pocket PC models. Even while using the iPAQ Pocket PC, the case
meets IP54 requirements for protection against dust and water
contamination. The Rugged Case also allows the iPAQ Pocket PC
user to access the DC jack and universal connector via tethered plugs. |

| Key Features
|
- Flip-up door
– The flip up door is made from a tough
polycarbonate frame (black) and window. When closed, the flip-up door
provides protection to the flexible membrane and iPAQ Pocket PC
unit. The rigid clear polycarbonate window is sized to allow the user
to see the display on all accommodated iPAQ Pocket PC models.
The window is hard-coated inside and out for scratch and abrasion
resistance.
- Screen Protector
– A flexible screen protector membrane
provides a means for the user to access the touch screen and all front
buttons of the iPAQ Pocket PC. The lower portion of the screen
protector can flip up to access the fingerprint reader on the iPAQ
5400 series Pocket PC models. The membrane is made of a tough,
tear resistant TPU film. The membrane fits snuggly in a groove located
in the upper case half to provide a water and dust resistant seal. The
membrane is resistant to discoloration from exposure to sunlight. The
membrane is replaceable and is sold separately in three-packs of
membranes.
- Removable belt clip
– The robust clip is made from tough
polycarbonate. The belt clip releases by pressing the snap release arm
in a direction away from the main unit. The belt clip features a small
² hook² at the
end to prevent the clip form inadvertently slipping off. Replacement
belt clips can be ordered separately.
- Upper and lower case halves
- The case halves consist
of a tough Polycarbonate structure (black) with scratch and mar
resistant TPU elastomer (red) over-mold. Pass-through elastomer ribs
cradle the iPAQ and absorb impact energy. The case halves are
engaged first at the top where interlocking ²
fingers² provide positive engagement. The
case halves then snap together on the opposite end. When brought
together, features on the sides of the upper and lower case halves
create a stylus holder.
The lower case half has attachment rails for the removable belt clip.
Two small ² feet²
on the back provide a stable footing for the case when layed on its back
(belt clip removed). The ² press to open
button" is at the bottom of the lower case half. ²
Loops² on the lower-case half provide
attachment points for a neck strap or lanyard. The tough, high
elongation TPU has more than adequate strength to serve this purpose.
Openings in the upper case half provide access to the headphone jack,
DC charging jack, and USB sync port. When not in use, these openings can
be sealed with plugs. These plugs are tethered to the upper case half to
prevent them from being lost. When installed, these plugs seal out water
and dust to the IP-54 standard. |
- Case Open Lock –
The rugged case includes a means to lock the
case halve snap. By turning the case open lock screw ¼ turn the user
can lock or unlock the snap release and prevent the case halves from
inadvertently coming apart or deter unauthorized opening of the case.
The case open lock is designed to be operated with a T15 Torx
screwdriver. Two icons and an indicator on the screw identify the case
as locked or unlocked.
- Removable IR window/expansion card access cover
- At the top
of the upper case half, an infrared (IR) transparent door serves two
purposes. When closed, its transparency at the correct wavelength
allows use of the iPAQ Pocket PC’s IR data port while
maintaining water and dust resistance to IP-54 standards. The door can
also be flipped open to allow access to the iPAQ Pocket
PC card slots such as PC card, Compact Flash (CF) or Secure Digital.
The IR transparent door is tethered to the upper case half by two
tough TPU straps. The IR window is removable by sliding the tethers
out of slots located in the upper housing.
- Extended Card Cover
– The rugged case is shipped with a
removable extended card cover made of the same polycarbonate structure
and TPU elastomer over-mold as the case halves. When installed the
extended card cover protects protruding PC, CF or SD cards from impact
and maintains water and dust resistance. The extended card cover has a
transparent window to allow the use of certain bar code scanner
accessories.
- Spacer Pack
– The rugged case is shipped with a black
polycarbonate Spacer Pack that allows the use of an iPAQ Pocket
PC models equipped with or without an extended battery to be used with
the rugged case.
