Description

Zebra DS3608-ER20CC3VTNA Industrial Scanner

Overview

The Zebra DS3608-ER20CC3VTNA is a corded, ultra-rugged 1D/2D imager designed for extreme environments. It provides extended range scanning, capturing barcodes from near contact up to 6 feet (1.8 meters), making it suitable for warehouse operations, manufacturing floors, and logistics where rapid, reliable data capture is critical for productivity and order accuracy. Its construction is engineered to withstand drops, dust, and moisture, ensuring uptime in punishing conditions.

Compatibility

This scanner is designed to interface with host systems via its integrated corded connection. It is compatible with any system requiring standard USB HID (Human Interface Device) or COM port emulation, common in Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), and inventory management software. It functions as a keyboard wedge, entering scanned data directly into applications without requiring custom software.

Installation Notes

The DS3608-ER20CC3VTNA is built to survive 8 ft./2.4 m drops to concrete and 5,000 tumbles. It operates reliably in temperatures from -30°C to 50°C (-22°F to 122°F). Its IP67 sealing protects against dust and immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. The integrated green vibration motor provides tactile feedback for scan confirmation.
