True-comfort keyboard and precision touchpad

Business places great importance on keyboards, as they are vital for professional communications. ASUS engineers have fine-tuned the BU400’s keyboard, providing better click ratios and travel distance. The touchpad has also been optimized, maintaining high precision while offering a bigger touch surface. All give business users superior productivity-enhancing experiences.

Your business reinforced

Durable reinforced LCD carbon construction

The ASUS BU400’s LCD cover employs durable reinforced carbon construction that is several times sturdier than conventional plastics. This gives the notebook 20% higher panel pressure resistance compared to standard notebooks, offering better damage protection while remaining light.

Anti-shock hard drive – triple protection keeps data safe from damage

Stringent 3-axial/6-angular shock and vibration test

As a point of assurance to users, ASUSPRO BU400 hard drives are subjected to 3-axial/6-angular shock and vibration trials in accordance with industry-standard surrogate testing.

Metal bracket and shock-absorbing cushions

ASUSPRO BU400 notebooks utilize metal brackets to strengthen structures around drives, protecting storage beyond mainstream standards. This is complemented by shock-absorbing cushions designed as additional shields to protect data in the event of shocks or drops experienced by the notebook during transportation.

Motion sensor protection mechanism

G-sensor hardware and hard drive protection software pre-empt imminent impacts as an additional line of defense in keeping data safe and secure. They use a 3D digital accelerometer with three levels of sensitivity: off, normal, and high. The latter is activated by default, and impact detection remains on at all times.

Tough-metal four-corner notebook structural protection

Notebook bracket reinforced with rigid metallic frame

Shock-absorbing hard drive cushions reduce potential damage

Impact-detecting hard drive G-sensor pre-empts drop incidents

Enhanced drop testing More than double the drop height of standard notebooks	Strengthen hinge testing Passes an additional 20,000 open/close hinge cycle tests	Enhanced pressure testing Up to 20% higher endurance compared to normal notebooks	Spill-resistant keyboard Occasional beverage accidents are no longer a problem

Your business: more secure and manageable

New 3rd generation Intel® Core™ processors with vPro™ technology and Intel® privacy protection features help IT managers implement added security alongside intelligent performance

Performance and protection are top priorities for enterprise IT departments, and so the ASUS BU400 incorporates 3rd generation Intel® Core™ vPro™ processors. These help IT departments protect their business PCs, automate troubleshooting, expedite repair and maintenance tasks, and reduce desk-side and onsite visits. IT departments tap lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and higher operational efficiency. Intel® Identity Protection Technology (Intel® IPT) adds a layer of hardware-based security, helping prevent unauthorized access to your important business accounts. It is widely regarded by security experts as a more effective approach than software-only authentication.

Intel® Small Business Advantage (Intel® SBA) helps small businesses efficiently manage their PCs in one simple package

The ASUSPRO BU400 features Intel® Small Business Advantage, a new computing platform that consists of hardware, software, and firmware to provide unique security and productivity capabilities. It has been specially designed for small businesses that do not have a managed PC environment, it simplifies your IT allowing you to focus on your business and not on your PC. Intel® SBA includes six applications to help organize security and productivity: Software Monitor, Data Backup and Restore, USB Blocker, PC Health Center, Energy Saver, and Wireless Display.

Embedded TPM security chip: valuable data protected on a deep hardware level

Professionals can rest assured that their valuable data is protected with Trusted Platform Module security hardware integrated on the board to hold computer-generated encryption keys. Its hardware-based design helps repel attacks by hackers looking to capture passwords and keys to sensitive data. TPM allows notebooks to run applications more securely, and makes transactions and communications more trustworthy.

Improved security with fingerprint scanning

Notebooks incorporating fingerprint scanning take data access authorization and protection to a higher level with a personal touch. RF electronic scanner imaging reads fingerprint patterns, using sensors that are less affected by skin surface conditions, including dry, worn, calloused, dirty or oily skin, which may impair the ability of other sensor technologies to accurately detect fingerprints.

Keep data safe, plus trace and locate stolen notebooks with Intel® Anti-Theft Technology and Computrace® LoJack® for Laptops

The ASUSPRO BU400 utilizes Intel® Anti-Theft Technology (Intel® AT) to help disable access to the operating system in the event that your notebook is ever lost or stolen, keeping it safe and secure. Notebooks are also bundled with Computrace® LoJack® for Laptops by Absolute® Software, giving you the power to remotely locate them if missing. You can also remotely lock and delete data before it falls into the wrong hands. LoJack® for Laptops ‘s dedicated theft recovery team works with local police to track down lost or stolen notebooks and bring them back to you.
