View DS9908R RFID Guide

Purpose-Built Hybrid Scanning

Move naturally between presentation and handheld use

A capacitive touch sensor and accelerometer switch modes as the scanner is picked up, while the integrated adjustable stand keeps presentation scanning compact and stable.

Retail-Ready Barcode Performance

Capture difficult barcodes quickly

PRZM Intelligent Imaging, a megapixel sensor, wide field of view, and swipe speeds up to 240 in. per second help decode damaged, low-contrast, glossy, and mobile barcodes.

RFID at the Checkout

Read multiple tagged items without line of sight

The integrated EPC Gen2 UHF RFID reader captures tagged merchandise at the point of sale and operates from 5 VDC without a separate external power supply.

Flexible Retail Workflows

Choose EAS and parsing capabilities by option

Available configurations support Checkpoint EAS deactivation or driver-license parsing, while 123Scan and Zebra management tools simplify setup and maintenance.
