Janam Technologies LLC, provider of rugged mobile computers that scan barcodes and communicate wirelessly, announced the launch of its XG3 rugged mobile computer. Designed to excel in the most challenging environments, the XG3 is Janam’s next-generation, gun-shaped rugged mobile computer. Eliminating the weight and bulk associated with competitive devices, it is the lightest industrial-grade device in its class.

With its sleek design and superior performance, the XG3 is built to increase productivity, streamline operations and improve the bottom line. The XG3 survives multiple six-foot drops to concrete on all sides across a full spectrum of temperatures and is sealed to IP65 standards for use in wet and dirty environments. It also delivers industry-leading battery life with a standard 5200mAh hot-swappable Li-ion battery ensuring uninterrupted operation throughout the workday.

Other winning features include a 3.5-inch color display with hardened glass, ARM Cortex-A8 CPU @1GHz and choice of keypads to provide the performance, power efficiency and flexibility that enterprise and government customers require.

“The XG3 is built with the user in mind. Incomparably light and ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in the hand, this is the ideal device for scan-intensive, extended shift use in the harshest environments,” said Harry B Lerner, CEO of Janam. “Unlike our competitors, Janam doesn’t force customers to choose between price and performance. The XG3 meets the most demanding requirements at an incredibly competitive price point.”

The XG3 offers the latest in barcode scanning technology. With a choice between Honeywell’s Adaptus® imaging technology and Motorola’s SE965 extended-range 1D laser scan engine, the XG3 provides unmatched scanning speed and accuracy. It also offers 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi and support for Voice Over IP (VoIP) for reliable voice and data across manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, plant floors, loading docks, seaports and other harsh environments.
