DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER CORDED AND CORDLESS EXTENDED RANGE 2D IMAGER

DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER Ultra-Rugged Scanner

UNSTOPPABLE PERFORMANCE FOR EXTENDED
RANGE 1D/2D BARCODE SCANNING
Every day, workers in your warehouse scan thousands of barcodes to ensure order accuracy and on-time delivery.
Their productivity depends on the quality of the scanner you put in their hands. If your workers need to capture 1D
and 2D barcodes near and far, with the corded DS3608-ER and cordless DS3678-ER scanner, you can give them the
best — unmatched rugged design, unmatched scanning performance and unrivaled manageability. The advanced
imager delivers lightning-fast capture of any 1D or 2D barcode displayed on a screen or printed on a label in virtually
any condition, nearer and farther than any scanner in this class — from 3 in./7.6 cm to as far as 70 ft./21.4 m away. The
ultra-rugged design is practically indestructible — ideal for punishing environments. The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER
couldn’t be easier and less time-consuming to deploy and manage. And when it comes to cordless technology, the
DS3678-ER is loaded with Zebra-only features that put it in a class of its own. The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER — the
