The Zebra DS3678 is a professional-grade ultra-rugged 1D/2D barcode scanner built for demanding industries like warehousing, logistics, manufacturing, retail backrooms, and cold storage. It uses advanced imaging technology to capture almost any barcode quickly—even if it’s damaged, poorly printed, dirty, or low contrast.
Key Capabilities
• 1D & 2D Barcode Capture
Reads virtually all common symbologies (e.g., UPC/EAN, Code 39, Code 128, QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417) with high accuracy and speed.
• Cordless Bluetooth Connectivity
Bluetooth Class 1 (Version 4.0 LE) enables wireless operation with a long line-of-sight range (up to ~100 m). Many kits include a rugged cradle that stores settings so the scanner auto-configures when docked.
• Ultra-Rugged Design
Built for harsh environments: withstands multiple 8 – 10 ft (2.4 – 3 m) drops, numerous tumbles, and is sealed to IP65/IP68 for dustproof and waterproof protection — even suitable for freezer environments.
• Long Battery Life
High-capacity Power Precision+ battery supports 70,000 – 100,000+ scans per charge, with health metrics for state-of-charge and cycles.
• Environmental Resilience
Operates in extreme temperatures (typically from roughly −30 °C to +50 °C / −22 °F to +122 °F) and high humidity conditions.
• User Feedback & Confirmation
Provides multiple modes of feedback including LEDs, beeper, vibration, and a direct decode indicator so users instantly know when a scan is successful.
• Advanced Software & Tools
Zebra’s Data Capture DNA suite enhances management, configuration, diagnostics, and performance with utilities like 123Scan.
