Panasonic I/O Port extension

Panasonic I/O Port Extension – TOUGHBOOK 40

When you're out on a customer site and need a presentation display, a serial-port device, and external USB storage all running at once, your laptop's built-in ports fill up fast. This Panasonic I/O Port Extension is built specifically for the TOUGHBOOK 40 and adds three of the most-needed connections in one go.

What you get

• ·HDMI output — connect directly to an external monitor or projector without hunting for an adapter
• ·RS-232 serial port — talk to older equipment, barcode scanners, and industrial devices that still use serial communication
• ·USB 3.0 port — fast transfers to external drives, readers, or any other USB peripheral

Designed for the TOUGHBOOK 40 specifically

The unit plugs straight into the TOUGHBOOK 40's dedicated I/O expansion connector. There are no extra cables or adapters in the chain — the connection sits firm whether you're at a desk or moving between sites.

This matters in the field: a loose adapter is one more thing that can fail mid-job. Because this unit is a direct fit, it stays put.

In practice

If you drive to customer locations and regularly need a screen for demos, a serial link to machinery, and an external drive for data — all at the same time — this port extension keeps everything under control without a tangle of cables on the table.

The TOUGHBOOK line is built for demanding, daily field use, and its accessories follow the same principle. The unit ships with a 12-month warranty. Country of origin: China.
