The Samsung DeX™ station is designed to connect the Galaxy S8 or S8+ smartphone to any HDMI-output monitor, creating a rich desktop-like experience. When paired with the BT-870-TP keyboard and a 13.3" flat panel display from iKey, IK-KV-13.3W, the police vehicle has a workstation that rivals any desktop solution.
"Dual connectivity is what we hear our customers asking for; they want both USB and Bluetooth for reliability, not just Bluetooth," comments Steven Meyer, CEO of iKey. "Device interference is common and dual connectivity will solve that. We help police do their job with no downtime," he adds.
Customers for the dual connectivity keyboard include public safety and law enforcement vehicles, EMS vehicles, first responders, fire trucks, and other public safety vehicles. Companies that manage fleet vehicles are also an excellent fit for this keyboard.
The BT-870-TP is a compact, sealed, mobile keyboard made of industrial silicone. It is rated IP67. The keyboard is highly mobile, at 2.03" depth. For an even smaller version, iKey also offers a SLIM profile model, BT-870-TP-SLIM, at 0.85" depth.
