MOTOROLA DS457
GET HANDS-FREE CONVENIENCE AND
EXTRAORDINARY SCANNING SPEED
ON ANY BAR CODE…ON ANY SURFACE
Enable high-volume hands-free scanning from the
retail POS and airport boarding gate to the manufacturing
production line with the Motorola DS457. With
comprehensive data capture, your workers can scan
virtually any bar code — including 1D, 2D and direct
part marks. No matter what type of bar code is
presented, or whether it is printed on a paper label,
etched into a product or displayed on a mobile phone
screen, breakthrough digital imaging technology
delivers extraordinary scanning speed. The tiny
footprint fits in the most space constrained areas.
Workers can choose presentation or trigger-activated
mode, providing the flexibility for a wide variety of
applications. And while the DS457 can be integrated
into a wide variety of products, its sleek design is
just as at home in customer-facing areas, such as a
retail counter.
TRUE BEST-IN-CLASS PERFORMANCE
ON ALL BAR CODES
With stunning performance on virtually every bar
code — 1D and 2D plus direct part marks — your
workers can capture bar codes as fast as they can
present items for scanning. There is never a need to
pause between scans, protecting productivity.
FITS IN THE SMALLEST OF SPACES
The tiny DS457 is ideal where a zero or minimal footprint
is required. At just 1.15 in. H x 2.3 in. L x 2.44 in. W
(2.92 cm H x 5.84 cm L x 6.2 cm W), this device can be
mounted just about anywhere — attached to the register
or under the counter for a true zero footprint on the retail
cashwrap to a space-constrained manufacturing cell or
airport gate.
SCAN BAR CODES ON PRACTICALLY
ANY SURFACE — INCLUDING MOBILE
PHONE DISPLAYS
Your customers are rapidly adopting mobile bar codes
— electronic versions of tickets, boarding passes and
loyalty cards that can be carried right in the mobile
phone. Since the DS457 can read bar codes on mobile
phone and computer displays, you’re ready for this next
generation bar code, protecting customer convenience,
customer service quality and employee productivity.
FLEXIBLE AND EASY TO INTEGRATE
The DS457 can be used as a standalone scanner or
integrated into the most space-constrained products
to bring world-class scanning performance to mobile
computers, handheld scanners, self-service kiosks,
medical and diagnostic instruments, lottery terminals
and more. Integration into your product designs is
easy — there is no optical, mechanical or electrical
