Life on the road is tough, so the latest ExpertBook B5 laptops are designed to both meet and surpass exacting industry thresholds — including the ultra-demanding MIL-STD 810H US military standard. This means they are built to survive every extreme, from freezing temperatures to the searing heat of desert storms, and from high-speed shocks to everyday bumps.

ASUS NumberPad 2.0 is also an optional with the new ExpertBook B5 series. This is an LED-illuminated numeric keypad that is perfect for crunching numbers. Tap the NumberPad 2.0 icon on the top right of the touchpad to turn it on and tap the icon on the left to toggle between two brightness settings. Clever software allows the mouse pointer to be controlled, even when NumberPad 2.0 is activated.

Finally, business security is a watchword of the new ExpertBook B5 models. They benefit from robust security features to ensure confidential and private data does not leak out, including an integrated fingerprint sensor, a physical webcam shield and an optional TPM 2.0 chip to keep attackers away from private data. There is even an integrated Kensington Lock slot, making it quick and easy to secure ExpertBook B5.
