Beaverton, Oregon – CTL, a global leader in cloud computing solutions for education and business, today announced the introduction of the new CTL PX111E Chromebook Series. These 11.6” Chromebooks give students the essential processing and connectivity they need in a durable, sustainable device. Easy ChromeOS device management combined with CTL lifecycle services reduces device deployment and management burdens for IT departments.
“We’ve introduced several new Chromebooks lately, and this is our new entry-level 11.6” version, designed for the rigors of everyday student use. We tested it to MIL-STD-810H standards, added a durable hinge that opens 180°, and even took it off desks to ensure its survivability. When combined with the power of Google for Education, Intel N100 processing, Wi-Fi 6E, and other advanced technologies, the PX111E series will serve students for years to come,” said Erik Stromquist, CEO of CTL.
