Cordless freedom
improves productivity and protects profitability
Symbol’s
cordless LS4278 provides superior barcode scanning in a durable future-proof
device that delivers an outstanding total cost of ownership. Workers
can move within a 50' radius to scan items where the elimination of
hazardous cables creates a safer work environment. From cashiers moving
around the register to scan large, heavy items and check for missed
items to healthcare workers double checking that the right patient is
receiving the right medication, integrated Bluetooth wireless personal
area networking (WPAN) provides reliable and secure wireless transmission
of data between the scanner and the host. Productivity is improved,
revenues are protected and potential liability due to injury from lifting
heavy objects is reduced.
Summary of Benefits:
- Cordless scanning with secure wireless transmission of data
- Eliminates the need for exact aim and positioning for superior
scanning accuracy
- Discover, provision and upgrade devices from a central remote
location; dramatically reduces management effort and costs
- Reliable performance, rated to 250,000+ insertions
- Lowers TCO by eliminating a major source of vulnerability
- Reads good and poor quality barcodes at similar ranges, reducing
the need for the user to move the scanner back and forth
- Eliminates the need to pause between scans
- Protects against downtime from breakage due to everyday drops
- Rapid deployment; single cable connects to any computing environment
and eliminates need for a power supply; simplifies installation
- Use up to three scanners with a single cradle, reducing capital
expenditures and maintenance costs
- Increases application design flexibility to better meet specific
needs
- Provides versatility to accommodate any unique environment
Outstanding
scanning performance
The LS4278 is designed to deliver exceptional scanning performance.
Users can scan objects at any angle - the innovative multi-line rastering
scan pattern eliminates the need for exact aim and positioning of the
scanner. The laser line moves vertically during scanning, allowing accurate
capture of even the smallest, stacked and poorly printed bar codes on
the first scan. And with superior motion tolerance, users no longer
need pause between scans, further increasing productivity.
A new level
of durability - and a lower TCO
The LS4278 scanner and cradle are designed to withstand all day every
day use, from drops to spills, with features that deliver maximum uptime
and investment protection. The scanner’s patented single board construction
eliminates the most common point of failure - the interconnection between
multiple boards. Even if the scanner is accidentally dropped, a six-foot
(1.8m) drop specification ensures continuous reliable operation. The
scanner and cradle offer industrial charging contacts that eliminate
wear when cradling the device, providing a reliable charging connection
through hundreds of thousands of insertions - other common charging
techniques show wear between 5,000 to 10,000 insertions. Drain points
are designed into the cradle to protect sensitive internal electronics
from accidental liquid spills. Built-in enterprise durability combines
with Symbol’s services to deliver a low total cost of ownership. Symbol’s
comprehensive services are available to assist in rapid deployment as
well as provide the ongoing support needed to maintain peak performance
- and achieve maximum uptime and value.
