THE INDUSTRY & COMPANY
Device integration is key when conducting safety audits and inspections for energy infrastructure
This Utilities client specializes in on-site energy inspections, technical audits, and safety certifications for energy infrastructure, including power plants, wind farms, and solar systems. In the field, their teams are constantly connecting external devices to utility field tablets. The nature of the work demands a fast, stable way to connect useful external tools like drone controllers for facility inspections or portable printers for on-site invoices.
THE CHALLENGE & PAIN POINTS
Standard I/O ports weren’t enough for stable field connections and the variety of devices
While performing technical inspections and safety checks in demanding outdoor environments, the client's field teams needed a flexible and more reliable way to connect external peripherals. Standard I/O ports were limited to traditional plug-in connectors and also prone to wear and disconnection, unlike the vibration-resistant POGO ports.
THE TAILORED SOLUTION
Custom POGO port integration for seamless modular connectivity
Getac delivered a customized POGO port integrated into the rugged utility field tablet. The spring-loaded pogo pin connectors were designed for rugged tablet docking and device integration with multiple configurations. This granted the workers total flexibility, allowing them to quickly and securely attach any kind of peripherals needed such as drone controllers and portable printers without needing traditional fragile plugs. The POGO port not only withstood vibration but also supported reliable connection for streamlined workflows.
THE RESULTS & BENEFITS
Faster deployments and improved field efficiency with external accessories
Thanks to Getac’s ability to deliver a fully customized solution with minimal delay, the client was able to transition quickly without operational downtime. The POGO port configuration improved usability in the field, reduced risk of port damage, and created a more modular ecosystem for their operations. This versatile extensible I/O expansion caters to more diverse operational needs in multiple industries and ultimately leads to enhanced fieldwork efficiency.
