Rugged Computers from JLT Mobile Computers AB Validated as Navis Ready
02 September 2015 - 5:54PM
Entire VERSO range
passes Navis Ready validation testing against Navis N4 TOS
Växjö, Sweden, 2 September
2015 * * * JLT Mobile
Computers, Swedish developer and manufacturer
of rugged computers for demanding environments, announces that its
VERSO range of rugged computers has been officially and
independently validated as ready for integration into any shipping
port or terminal running the Navis N4 2.6 Terminal Operating System
(TOS).
Navis Ready is a validation program, open to all
vendors of handheld devices and other hardware technologies
intended for use within a container terminal operating environment.
By submitting its VERSO range to Navis scrutiny and achieving
validation, JLT is confirming to customers that they can have
confidence in the VERSO range of rugged computers - including the
new, compact VERSO+ 10 - and that devices will integrate reliably
within a Navis N4 2.6 TOS environment at both the hardware and
software level.
The VERSO Series and VERSO+ 10 computers passed
the standard tests for Vehicle Mounted Terminals (VMTs), the
validation focused on the ECN4 business flows in a container
terminal, which included tests for JLT's VMTs and ECN4 end-to-end
CHE flows. Copies of the validation reports are available on
request.
Access to and confidence in reliable IT technology
is critical in a marine port and terminal environment, as business
is won and retained based on up-time and the efficiency with which
containers are moved from ship to shore, and on to their final
destination. The use of rugged computers and wireless communication
promotes productivity and efficiency in any sector, but in shipping
ports and terminals the harsh environment presents specific
challenges to both the hardware and the software. JLT's VERSO range
was designed to work in such harsh environments, whether installed
in a crane or truck, and has, once again, been independently proven
to be up to the challenge.
"We have validated the JLT VERSO Series which
represents one of the most recent designs in this segment and has
been recognised by port customers around the world," said Sanket
Sheth, Director, Global Technical Services, Navis. "The JLT devices
passed the standard user tests for Vehicle Mounted Terminals and
would be suitable in a terminal operational environment."
"When we modernized our port operations and
implemented Navis N4 earlier this year, we selected the JLT VERSO
mobile computers based on recommendations from other port
customers," said Capt. Jan Nowak, Director of ACT Burgas. "Although
JLT was not yet validated at the time we made our choice, we are
pleased to now have confirmation of what we already know - that JLT
delivers on its promises."
'"Whether tracking cargo through a port or
enabling the automation of processes or equipment, the demands on
computer hardware and wireless connectivity in ports are
substantially higher than in the average operating environment,"
commented Per Holmberg, CEO, JLT Mobile Computers. "Validation and
acceptance into the Navis Ready Program demonstrates that JLT's
mobile computers meet and exceed these demands."
Navis, a part of Cargotec Corporation, has for
more than 26 years provided operational technologies that unlock
greater performance and efficiency for the world's leading terminal
operators. By becoming validated against Navis N4, JLT's customers
are assured that the VERSO range will provide an optimal customer
experience and enable marine terminal operators worldwide to
maximise performance and reduce risk.
