Introduction
The Motorola MW810 Mobile Workstation series is Motorola's highest-performing and most
rugged data communication and computing solution. It is specifically designed for the harsh
conditions of the mobile environment which is unsuitable for conventional laptop or desktop
computers.
The MW810 Mobile Workstation consists of three separate interconnected components: CPU
Box, Display and Keyboard and can be mounted in dual airbag-equipped vehicles. Using
custom-designed cable adapters, the CPU can be connected to a 12.1” or 8.4” MW810
Mobile Workstation display or 3rd-party LCD, CRT or Flat Screen display. Each component
can also be used as a stand-alone product interfacing to 3rd party equipment.
The MW810 Mobile Workstation is a multipurpose mobile data computer, that can support
the simultaneous operation of two independent users, each using different display (RGB or
DVI) and keyboard. A basic model is available without an expansion option, supporting a
single analog RGB display.
