Two Technologies’ new JETT•XL® with
JETT•PACK™ peripheral device was recently selected by Enterprise Air
as a more rugged hardware solution to its Mobile Badge ManaGEMent
Suite of Physical Security & Emergency ManaGEMent Tools.
Serving the Homeland Security market,
Enterprise Air offers an integrated suite of mobile software
applications that address the physical security and emergency needs
of both the government and public sectors. Using secured hand held
devices to host its software, Enterprise Air creates mobile
solutions that enable law enforcement officers, emergency response
workers and other authorized personnel to scan badges, verify ID
credentials, check license plate numbers and/or run ad-hoc checks on
individuals from any location. Information can be transmitted to a
central server for processing.

Previously, Enterprise Air utilized bulky, non-rugged external
attachments to hand held computers to house the iCLASS smart card
technology, proximity card technology and other peripherals required
as part of its access control and security solutions. Units were
cumbersome and heavy, while peripherals were exposed to the
environment.
With the JETT•PACK option, Enterprise
Air was able to integrate the necessary iClass smart card and
proximity card technology into Two Technologies’ most powerful and
rugged hand held computer, the JETT•XL. This enabled the
development of a compact, one-piece Mobile ID Card Reader that was
both rugged and user-friendly.
“The JETT•XL hand held computer, with JETT•PACK option allows us to
offer our Mobile ID Card Reader as a convenient, one-piece unit
without any add-ons to accommodate additional peripherals,” noted
Mike Hejtmanek, Founder & CEO, Enterprise Air. “No other handheld
computer on the market could offer us this capability.”
In
addition to smart cards and proximity cards, Enterprise Air
integrates its own OEM reader modules to support different card
technologies and interfaces. “Using the JETT•PACK with the JETT•XL
hand held, we were able to exclusively build an interchangeable ID
Card Reader module that is completely integrated with the hand
held,” says Hejtmanek.
Fastest Most Powerful Ruggedized
Mobile Computer
Along with its capacity to integrate a variety
of peripherals and communication devices with the JETT•PACK option,
the JETT•XL is one of the fastest, most powerful mobile computers on
the market. Incorporating a powerful Microsoft® Windows®
CE .NET 5.0 operating system, along with an Intel®
PXA270
XScale® technology processor, the JETT•XL delivers high performance
(624 MHz) for fast information processing. Featuring XScale RISC,
with on-the-fly voltage and frequency scaling, the JETT•XL has
sophisticated power manaGEMent to provide industry-leading
performance.
Designed with a rugged IP65 rated package, the JETT•XL is completely
dust-tight and can withstand exposure to jets of water as well as
operating temperatures of –20ºC to 50ºC. A casing made of GE XENOY®
makes it one of the most durable, chemical-resistant hand held
computers available on the market today.
“As our mobile solutions are often used in changing weather
conditions and dropped by users, it is important that the hand held
device be very durable,” noted Elizabeth Nichols, Account Executive,
Enterprise Air. “In addition to being rugged, the JETT•XL offers a
backlit keypad that allows users to see the keys at night.”
Offering a variety of customization options, the JETT•XL hand held
computer enabled Enterprise Air to customize features such as the
keyboard, overlays and logos. Now, Enterprise Air can customize
keyboard commands to customer requirements.
“With these different options, we can satisfy each customer’s
specific requirements,” reports Nichols. “For example, if a
customer needs a keypad to function in low light conditions, we will
be able to provide them with a solution for that problem. If
another user requires a streamlined appearance for their keypad, we
will also be able to accommodate their needs without compromising
the technology.”
