Motorola DS3478 CCD/Linear Imagers

Symbol's rugged DS3478-SF Cordless Digital Scanner uses digital imaging technology to accurately capture all types of one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) barcodes while offering the high performance typically found only in laser scanners. With the DS3478-SF, you benefit from a scanning solution designed specifically for fast-paced production environments. The DS3478-SF comes equipped with charge coupled device (CCD) image sensors, which allows it to more accurately capture and process barcodes at a faster pace than other digital scanners. In addition, the scanner's omnidirectional scanning functionality lets operators quickly capture barcodes from any angle, eliminating the need to line up barcodes with laser lines. The DS3478-SF has the widest working range of any scanner in its class. Its two-position smart focus technology, unique to Symbol, allows you to read barcodes regardless of the size or density of the code. This means this single device works well for all your scanning needs.

Your warehouse, manufacturing and even retail employees operate more efficiently when you eliminate the cable between the device and the host. The cable is a common point of failure in handheld devices operating in industrial facilities. Having no cord translates into fewer repairs and less downtime from cable breakdowns.

The DS3478-SF doesn't just provide you with a scanning solution that meets current and future needs-it'll help protect your past investments as well. The DS3478-SF offers the technology you need to scan newer barcode symbologies such as 2D barcodes as well as 1D barcodes. In addition, the DS3478-SF includes a multi-interface allowing it to work with a variety of hosts. With the DS3478, you'll choose the scanner that is right for you-without having to worry about making a large investment in your overall architecture.
