The cordless design with a reliable Bluetooth connection gives staff freedom to move around patient beds, medication carts, and lab benches without being tethered.

Ideal use cases

• Patient wristband and medication verification at point of care
• Specimen labeling and tracking in laboratories
• Inventory management in hospital supply rooms and pharmacies

Good to know

The scanner rests in the included base for charging and data synchronization. The base connects to your computer or POS system via USB, and the scanner pairs automatically when docked. With a battery that lasts for up to 50,000 scans, it easily covers a full shift. The IP52 rating means it is protected against limited dust ingress and dripping water, making it suitable for everyday spills and cleanups.
