Zebra CHG-ET5X-CBL2-01 tablet spare part/accessory Charge connector

Rugged Charge Connector/Charge Dongle for Zebra ET5X (CHG-ET5X-CBL2-01) connects to the charging contacts on the bottom of ET5X tablets and supplies power via a barrel jack on the side of the dongle. The connector is compatible with ET5X units with or without rugged frames when used with the supplied shim for devices that do not have the Rugged Frame attached. This version improves mechanical and electrical contact stability and reliability compared with earlier CHG-ET5X-CBL1-01 designs, reducing misuse of cradles and improving charging performance. Not compatible with ET51 Integrated Scanner models.

Advantages

The CHG-ET5X-CBL2-01 offers increased stability of the charging connection, improved reliability of electrical contacts, and a design that helps prevent incorrect cradle usage. It includes a shim for compatibility with units without the Rugged Frame and features hardware improvements to both the mechanical and electrical design to enhance charging performance.

Suitable for

• Charging Zebra ET5X series tablets
• Use with ET5X units fitted with Rugged Frames
• Use with ET5X units without Rugged Frames when using the supplied shim
