The IntelliSkin® Next Generation protective sleeve for the Apple iPad Air (4th Gen) & iPad Pro 11" (1st, 2nd & 3rd Gen) includes all the great features of the original IntelliSkin® while adding several enhancements. An insert molded redesign of the skin combines a hard plastic shell with soft, shock-absorbing rubber. Ruggedized contacts for repetitive docking in field applications remain on the exterior, but are now flat to collect less dirt and allow for easier cleaning. And an integrated USB Type-C connector at the bottom of the skin allows for device charging even when you don’t have a GDS® Dock™ available. This variation also integrates a powerful LED light in the back of the IntelliSkin® with an on/off button on the front. Like the original IntelliSkin®, these sleeves still provide military-grade drop protection and prevent damage to your device’s charging port from constant docking with an integrated GDS® connector molded directly into the skin. The IntelliSkin® Next Generation for the Apple iPad Air (4th Gen) & iPad Pro 11" (1st, 2nd & 3rd Gen) is compatible with a variety of GDS® Docks™ and accessories, as well as new docking cups for upgrading existing GDS® vehicle docks.
