Stage & Configuration

Rugged Limited (formerly FB Peripherals) is a renowned supplier of high-performance hardware and IT equipment. To ensure seamless integration, we perform rigorous multi-point checks, staging, and configuration testing long before installation begins. This proactive approach allows us to fully understand your existing infrastructure and business needs, ensuring we provide the best selection of services while strictly minimising disruption to your operations.

Our certified expert technicians conduct real-time examinations of your equipment to verify that all hardware, software, and applications are optimised for peak performance. By identifying and resolving potential hardware or configuration errors at our dedicated service centre, we guarantee a quick and easy installation at your site. This precision saves you valuable time and manpower, ensuring your equipment is mission-ready the moment it arrives.

We recognise that transporting and configuring specialised equipment across multiple sites is both costly and logistically demanding. Rugged Limited helps you reclaim these resources by managing the entire staging process in-house. By centralising these deployments, we significantly decrease the burden on your internal technical teams, allowing you to focus on core productivity while reducing the overall costs of hardware upgrades.

Staging is an essential step in the hardware lifecycle, as a single damaged component can lead to significant operational failures once deployed in the field. Rugged Limited (formerly FB Peripherals) provides methodical staging and configuration services designed to ensure a consistent, trouble-free startup the moment you receive your equipment.

During our rigorous pre-staging phase, we meticulously inspect every unit. Our technicians identify, repair, or replace any damaged components immediately, ensuring that only fully functional, high-performance hardware reaches your site. By resolving these issues in our controlled environment, we guarantee that your deployment stays on schedule and your equipment arrives ready for immediate use.

Our technical team performs a rigorous series of tests and checks to verify that every piece of hardware functions correctly and communicates seamlessly with your wider system according to your pre-defined protocols.

Our qualified technicians pre-configure all settings and specifications to your exact requirements. By delivering a system that is ready for immediate use, we eliminate the time and effort typically spent on manual setup and proactively remove any hardware or software conflicts before they reach your facility.

This service is designed to significantly reduce the hassle of installation and start-up. By identifying defects early, we can replace or repair components within our service centre, preventing the need for costly emergency technical visits and ensuring your project meets its deadlines and stays within budget.

Rugged Limited (formerly FB Peripherals) offers a range of sophisticated asset tagging and tracking solutions designed to give you total visibility over your hardware estate. Asset tracking provides a methodical way to manage physical assets, ensuring you can monitor their movement, status, and location throughout their operational lifecycle.

Our solutions are tailored to your environment and can include:

• Barcode & QR Labelling: High-durability labels for quick scanning and inventory management.

• Active Tracking (BLE, GPS, & RFID): Smart tags that broadcast real-time location and status data, ideal for high-value equipment in transit or across large-scale facilities.

Whether you need to simplify your internal audits or track mission-critical assets in the field, our team can integrate the right technology into your hardware before deployment.
