Who Is DURABOOK and Why We Chose Them
-
Proven heritage. DURABOOK is a long standing rugged mobility brand with decades of engineering experience in tough environments.

I/O for the job. Field friendly ports (including options for serial, Ethernet, HDMI/VGA, Thunderbolt/USB-C) make it easy to connect OEM adapters, scopes, J2534 pass-thru, and legacy gear.
