Why Invest in a Purpose-Built Keyboard?

Standard consumer keyboards aren't designed for industrial use. Our range of OEM rugged keyboards ensures seamless integration, durability, and performance in the challenging environments your teams operate in.

  • Increase Productivity

    Enable faster, more accurate data entry than with a touchscreen alone. A tactile keyboard is essential for report writing, detailed form filling, and intensive data input in the field.

  • Built for a Rugged Environment

    Our keyboards are designed to withstand drops, spills, and vibration. Many feature backlit keys for low-light conditions and are IP-rated for dust and water resistance, just like your devices.

  • Seamless Integration

    OEM keyboards connect flawlessly via dedicated docking connectors, drawing power directly from the device. This provides a stable connection without the need for separate charging or unreliable Bluetooth pairing.

Choosing the right detachable keyboard for a rugged tablet

Choosing the Right Keyboard

Selecting the correct keyboard ensures compatibility and enhances user adoption. Our specialists help you specify the right model by considering these factors:

 

  • Device Compatibility – Ensure the keyboard is designed and certified for your specific rugged tablet model.
  • Backlighting – Choose between non-backlit or backlit models with adjustable brightness for use in all light conditions.
  • Durability (IP Rating) – Match the keyboard's IP rating to the environment to protect against dust and water ingress.
  • Connectivity – We supply keyboards with robust, physical docking connectors for maximum reliability and performance.
  • Layout and Function Keys – Consider whether your workflow requires a standard layout or programmable function keys for specific software.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Why not use a standard consumer Bluetooth keyboard?

Consumer keyboards lack the durability required for industrial environments. They are not IP-rated, can't withstand drops, and require separate charging. Our OEM keyboards are purpose-built for a secure, integrated fit and rugged performance.

Do these keyboards need to be charged separately?

No. The keyboards we supply are designed to dock directly with the rugged tablet, drawing power through a dedicated physical connector. This ensures they are always ready for use and eliminates the need to manage charging for another accessory.

Are the keyboards backlit?

Yes, many of the models we offer feature backlit keys. This is a critical feature for users working in low-light conditions, such as inside a vehicle at night or during early morning site inspections, ensuring high visibility and accuracy.

How rugged are these keyboards?

They are built to the same rugged standards as the devices they pair with. This includes resistance to drops, shocks, and vibrations. Many are also sealed to protect against dust and water, specified by an IP (Ingress Protection) rating.

Which brands of keyboards do you supply?

We are authorised resellers for leading rugged device manufacturers, meaning we supply genuine OEM keyboards from brands like Panasonic, Getac, Havis, and more. This guarantees perfect fit, function, and compatibility.

Can we order keyboards for our entire device fleet?

Absolutely. Our specialists can help you manage your fleet's accessory needs. We will work with you to identify the correct keyboard models for all your devices and prepare a customised quote for a bulk rollout to your team.
