GTL's continued investment in building products designed to endure the rigor of a corrections environment separates company from competitors

RESTON, Virginia, March 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- GTL, an innovation leader in correctional technology and payment services solutions for government, today announced that the Inspire^® 1.5 corrections-grade inmate tablet has fully met the "Transit Drop" test requirements specified by MIL-STD-810G 516.6 Section 4.6.5. The Inspire 1.5 inmate tablet was evaluated by an independent testing laboratory in accordance with the U.S. Department of Defense Test Method Standard and survived the rigorous drop tests unscathed.

GTL's Inspire 1.5 inmate tablet was subjected to the scientific rigors of an independent testing laboratory to assess its ability to withstand drops in everyday use, and the latest version of Inspire more than passed the test.

The third-party lab followed the strict guidelines for drop testing defined in MIL-STD-810G 516.6. After dropping Inspire from a height of four feet onto a rigid surface a total of 26 times (dropped separately on each of the unit's 6 faces, 8 corners, and 12 edges), the GTL Inspire 1.5 device suffered no physical damage and no operational impairment, continuing to function exactly as it did before the tests.

"GTL is extremely proud to have achieved this hard-earned distinction," added Matt Ford, Product Manager, Mobility Platforms at GTL. "This latest certification only further separates GTL's quality products and offerings from those of industry competitors. We will also continue to refine Inspire's capabilities as we prepare to design the next generation of our tablets."
