Koamtac is a well-known global provider of modular accessories that pair with rugged mobile devices. From scanning sleds to charging cradles, their products are often used with Samsung’s enterprise-focused range of devices such as the XCover and TabActive series.


As rugged fleets continue to grow across industries like aged care, logistics, field service and healthcare, organisations are looking closely at accessory compatibility and rollout flexibility. Here’s what you should know.

Which Samsung Devices Work with Koamtac?

Koamtac accessories are most commonly paired with these rugged Samsung devices:

Tablets

  • TabActive2

  • TabActive3

  • TabActive4

  • TabActive4 Pro

  • TabActive5

  • TabActive5 Pro

Phones

  • XCover5

  • XCover6

  • XCover6 Pro

  • XCover7

These models are built to survive drops, moisture, and dust, making them ideal for mobile workforces. Accessories like charging cradles, scanning sleds, and vehicle docks can significantly boost productivity—if they are correctly matched.

What Businesses Typically Look For

Organisations choosing accessories for rugged Samsung devices often prioritise:

  • Ease of Use: Fast, intuitive “drop and go” charging at nurse stations, depots or vehicle docks

  • Multi-Device Charging: Cradles that support 5+ devices simultaneously

  • Case Compatibility: Ensuring the cradle accommodates rugged cases with belt clips

  • Lead Times: Projects often run on tight schedules, so long waits for accessory delivery can be a blocker
