Zebra CRDCUP-NGTC5EB-01 Mobile Computer Charging Cradle
Overview
The Zebra CRDCUP-NGTC5EB-01 is a wired charging and communications cradle purpose-built for stationary docking of Zebra rugged mobile computers in warehouse, retail, and logistics environments. It delivers simultaneous power charging (600mAh battery capacity) and data synchronization via USB and Ethernet connectivity — eliminating the need for separate power supplies or wireless charging while maintaining reliable network access in high-density RF environments where interference from wireless protocols creates synchronization risk.
Compatibility
The CRDCUP-NGTC5EB-01 is compatible with Zebra TC53(e), TC58(e), and R series mobile computers. The wired connection architecture ensures deterministic power delivery and data transfer in back-office integration points, stationary scan stations, and device management hubs where docked devices remain powered and synchronized throughout shifts without relying on battery autonomy or wireless protocols.
Installation Notes
Mount the cradle in a fixed location with access to standard AC power and network infrastructure. Ensure adequate clearance above and around the docking port for device insertion and removal without force. The wired design eliminates environmental concerns common to wireless charging — no overheating risk, no foreign object detection errors, and no dependency on line-of-sight RF propagation. Verify USB and Ethernet connections terminate to your warehouse or retail LAN infrastructure to avoid isolated docking hubs that defeat data-sync advantage.
