SYMBOL Technologies has released the LS 3408 family of data capture products. Symbol's new long-range industrial scanning line is targeted to inventory and asset management applications in the manufacturing, warehouse and 'ruggedised' retail market segments.
Designed to capture hard-to-reach critical information, the Symbol LS 3408 product line, which includes the LS 3408-ER and the LS 3408-FZ, delivers high-performance, real-time data capture capability to improve worker productivity, customer service and enterprise profitability.
The Symbol LS 3408 series is well-suited for shop floor management, inventory control, asset tracking, document control, and line operations.
In the warehouse, the new product family can handle inventory ordering and replenishment, order processing, shipping and receiving, and fork lift applications.
Differentiated features include:
* The Symbol LS 3408 products support reduced space symbology applications and signature capture. They can withstand multiple 6.5ft (2M) drops to concrete and are IP65 compliant for sealing against water and dust.
* The Symbol LS 3408-FZ features Symbol's best 1D scanning range and premium fuzzy logic scanning performance on all types of 1D barcodes (including poorly printed and low contrast). The device can read barcodes from near contact to seven feet away (55Mil bar code).
* The Symbol LS 3408-ER can scan a barcode (100Mil) up to 45 feet away, setting a new standard for data capture range on the market. In addition, the aiming pattern makes it user friendly at these long distances.
The Symbol LS 3408 series features multi-interface connectivity with support for RS232, USB (standard USB and USB II compatibility), scanner emulation, synapse, and keyboard wedge.
