RAM Mounts Enables Commercial Use of Samsung Mobile Devices
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) October 16, 2015 -- RAM Mounting Systems announces IntelliSkin™, a protective device case that simplifies the frequent docking and undocking of smartphones and tablets common in office, transportation and field service applications. IntelliSkin provides standard charging contacts to prevent damage to Samsung phones and tablets in rugged, high-use environments.
IntelliSkin features an integrated power connector compatible with any GDS™ charging dock. This prevents damage to the device charging port and creates a universal docking system compatible with any device wrapped with an IntelliSkin case.
“We are excited to work with Samsung to bring popular mobile devices to commercial applications including trucking, field service, material handling, automotive fleet and office use,” stated Aaron Hersey, VP of sales and marketing at RAM Mounting Systems. “IntelliSkin with GDS docking technology makes it possible to use smartphones and tablets with fewer concerns in rugged environments where devices are moved frequently among trucks, equipment and offices.”
GDS™ stands for Global Docking System technology. GDS sets a new standard by creating a uniform platform for connecting a variety of portable devices with power and data communication. RAM Mounts’ GDS platform provides compatibility with many different devices. Plus, it offers docking stations with scalability as smartphone and tablet manufacturers introduce new generations of devices.
“The problem with typical mounting and charging systems for consumer technology devices is the speed of innovation and the variety of different options available,” said Hersey. “With the GDS platform, all charging and docking is standardized. When upgrading to a new device with different charging ports, businesses only need to change the IntelliSkin case.”
In addition to cross-compatibility for charging and data exchange, GDS docking stations allow access to keyboards, monitors, speakers, hard drives and other USB devices by plugging in a connectivity hub to the back of the dock. A variety of GDS docks are available for desk, multiple device charging, vehicle and device locking applications. This provides the flexibility to utilize and dock devices wherever information is needed. The uniform, rugged docking contacts on the bottom of the IntelliSkin case connect for easy docking, eliminating the possibility of charging port damage.
“As businesses follow bring-your-own-device (BYOD) and company-owned-personally-enabled (COPE) technology strategies, enabling these somewhat delicate devices for heavy use is imperative to ensure their long useful life,” said Hersey. “With a variety of device ports and charging cables on the market, unifying an organization with one rugged charging platform increases both efficiency and mobility.”
IntelliSkin cases are currently available for the Samsung Galaxy S5 and S6, Tab S 8.4 and 10.5, Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 and 10.1, Galaxy Tab A 8.0 and 9.7, Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 and 9.7, and Galaxy Tab Active 8.0. RAM Mounts plans to develop more cases to expand the line in the future.
“This is just the beginning. We believe the GDS platform will become a standard for solving the problem of device compatibility across a broad range of markets including fleet transportation, service industries, government and education,” said Hersey.
