The Yuma 2 tablet, which already offers the best sunlight readable display on the market, is now available with a 1-2 meter real time Enhanced GPS positional accuracy using SBAS satellites.

The Enhanced GPS is integrated into the tablet form factor, adding no weight or need to attach an external antenna to collect GPS data. Available in two configurations, the Yuma 2 GL is the tablet with Enhanced GPS, and the GLX adds 3.75G data connectivity.

The Yuma 2 GL and GLX, using the GPS L1 band, offer reliable performance in reduced signal environments. Field workers who have to move from place to place to collect far-flung assets won't have to waste time waiting for a system warm-up: the Yuma 2 G tests at an average cold start of less than 33 seconds, and a warm start of less than 3 seconds. The Yuma 2 GL is also designed to work with Trimble VRS, a solution provided by Trimble Positioning Services. The GLX version also adds the 3.75 GSM data connectivity option into the tablet.

Both the standard, 2-4 meter GPS configurations and the new, 1-2 meter Enhanced GPS models of the Yuma 2 supports connecting an external GPS antenna that can be utilized when users are on foot or inside a vehicle, for even more accuracy as needed.

Unlike consumer products or tablets that have been given an exterior shell to make them "rugged," the Trimble Yuma 2 is built rugged from the inside out, with IP65 protection from dust and water, and with military-grade MIL-STD-810G certification for temperature, altitude, humidity extremes, vibration and shock.

The Yuma 2 features a new dual technology display created specifically for easy and outstanding sunlight readability. No matter how bright or direct the glare, the Yuma 2 provides a clear, easy-to-read workspace. The full-color, 7” screen resides under a Gorilla® Glass panel that is just as tough as the rest of the tablet.

Today's fast paced business world relies on assets distributed across wide geographical areas and the Yuma 2 is designed for this reality. The 5 megapixel camera provides video and photo capture with geotagging. When used with either the standard, or Enhanced GPS solutions, there’s a Yuma 2 model that meets your data collection needs for distributed asset management, work order management, fleet logistics and more.

With the multi-touch capacitive touchscreen, users can type with fingers, stylus or capacitive gloves and can control the size of the keyboard on the display for ease of use. Controlled zoom can optimize the user experience with maps and detailed information.  The display can be used vertically or horizontally and is configurable to hold the orientation or to alter it in response to the accelerometer.

Using the Microsoft® Windows 7 Professional operating system and 4 GB of DDR3 DRAM, the Yuma 2 allows mobile users to work with the same documents and data as they do in the office. Connectivity via Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi and optional GSM 3.75G cellular data module enables manageable and efficient workflows wherever your mobile workforce goes. The Yuma 2 tablet computer includes a dual-core 1.6 GHz Intel Atom processor to run software applications fast and reliably.

The Yuma 2 includes two USB host ports, HDMI output and a matched set of batteries that can be hot-swapped in the field, with a set of extended life batteries available as an optional accessory. There are six keys including three user-programmable function buttons and a 5-way directional keypad.

For security, the Yuma 2 provides a built-in, certified Trusted Processing Module (TPM) encryption module to allow security programming for Wi-Fi and direct connect authentication. A Kensington security port provides your workers with the ability to physically secure the Yuma 2 using a variety of Kensington computer security products.
