Demanding applications require a keyboard built to withstand maximum abuse in the harshest environments. The customizable Grizzly Xtreme is extremely rugged. Compact, yet full-function, this USB device is completely sealed. Backlit eslastomer keypad provides low light operation and excellent tactile feel.

OVERVIEW

Advanced Input Systems designed this extreme ruggedized keyboard – dubbed "Grizzly" for its survival abilities – to reliably operate in harsh situations. The durable Grizzly Xtreme withstands environmental usage hazards typical of mobile, rugged, and industrial applications. Users no longer need to compromise wear or performance to benefit from extreme keyboard protection and full functionality.

Well suited for gloved applications wand light pressure typing, the Grizzly Xtreme is an elastomer keypad encased in an upper and lower powder-coated die cast aluminum housing. Waterproof, dustproof and chemical resistant, the housing features a gasket sealed perimeter along with an area on the bottom for a Gortex vent. Wear-proof legends on the elastomer are painted and laser etched with "rhino" coating for additional protection. A strong performance advantages comes from the Grizzly Xtreme's ability to operate in low light environments due to LED backlit legends. The single USB cable with sealed strain relief provides a connection to both the keyboard buttons and FSR pointing device. An integrated 10-key numeric keypad adds to the utility. If fixed attachment is preferred, this keyboard contains four mounting points to provide easy system configuration – and to satisfy applications with high vibration problems.

Many keyboard users operate within a set of constraints due to environmental and/or board functionality limitations. The toughened Grizzly Xtreme puts a powerful alternative in your hands
