Inside, lightweight compression-molded EVA construction, reinforced offset edges, and secure corner straps work together to help absorb everyday bumps and accidental drops from the classroom to the cart—and everywhere in between.
Designed to stay on the device throughout the school day, DataKeeper Cart CS provides continuous protection while allowing full access to charging ports, buttons, and connections. Clear upper corner straps maximize screen visibility, while the non-slip interior securely holds the device in place without interfering with daily use.
