The first rugged enterprise digital assistant

The flagship MC70 Enterprise Digital Assistant (EDA) is a rugged handheld mobile device that incorporates a mobile phone, PDA, computer, scanner and imager in a single unit designed for the rigors of all-day, everyday usage. This compact, lightweight device combines multi-mode wireless networking, voice and data communications, and advanced data capture in an enterprise productivity tool that can support nearly any application in any environment. Superior voice functionality includes outstanding acoustic performance and voice quality, handset, headset and speakerphone modes, as well as push to talk capability (if supported by your WLAN application or WWAN carrier). Your mobile workers will have everything they need to increase productivity and efficiency inside and outside your four walls — from field workers reading meters and repairing equipment to drivers delivering packages, hospital workers checking lab results and medication orders, and more.

Rugged construction delivers a low TCO

The industry leading innovative mechanical design and technology platform offer superior construction and expandability, delivering outstanding investment protection and a low TCO. Engineered to withstand rigorous use in extreme environments and working conditions, the MC70, including the internal WLAN and external WWAN antennas, can endure multiple drops, a wide range of temperatures, moisture, dust and more and still deliver reliable performance.

Built-in WWAN/WLAN/WPAN

The MC70 offers robust and cost-effective anytime, anywhere voice and data connectivity. For workers outside of your facility, support for eGPRS (EDGE) networks delivers global coverage, fast wireless data speeds that enable rich applications, and enterprise level security. Inside your facility, the MC70 connects to your wireless LAN for voice and data communications, providing better control over wireless WAN usage —and costs. And wireless PAN functionality, via Bluetooth, further increases employee productivity through wireless printing and more.

Reduce the cost and complexity of mobility

The versatile, effective MC70 is a smart investment, providing a cell phone, PDA and more - all in a single rugged device. Capital expenditures and IT support costs are significantly reduced. Superior manageability enables you to easily and remotely provision, track and support all your MC70 devices from one central location through Motorola’s Mobility Services Platform. A full suite of accessories provides maximum application flexibility. And comprehensive maintenance and support services — required for even the most rugged products — ensure maximum uptime and value for your investment.
