English term or phrase: (equipped) hardened PC
"The diagnostic tool contains the following subsets:
- A storage bag
- A portable equipped *hardened PC* DOLCH
- A power pack
- A trackball LOGITECH
- A set of external cables."

The text on hand was quite obviously translated from French into English by a non-native speaker, but I still think this is a correct term (PC without moving parts?), can anybody come up with a German equivalent?
Thank you in advance.

robust, stoßfest
Explanation:
Ich glaube das ist hier im Sinne von robust und stoßfest gemeint.

Der Begriff hardened ist oft auch mit ruggedized gleichzusetzen.

Siehe Web-Referenz.

neutral  Cetacea: Dolch ist der Name des Herstellers, der sich auf robuste tragbare Computer usw. spezialisiert. Allerdings betrifft das nicht nur das Gehäuse, sondern auch andere Komponenten wie z.B. Kühlung. Siehe http://www.messweb.de/products/apr27824.htm
