Description
The Zebra RS5100 is a hands-free wearable scanner for warehouses, distribution centres, retail stockrooms and manufacturing. Workers wear it on one or two fingers or on the back of the hand and scan with a thumb press, while both hands stay free to handle items.
It pairs over Bluetooth with Zebra mobile computers such as the WT6300 or a TC-series handheld, so scanned data goes straight into your warehouse application.
Faster scanning, less fatigue
Choose the SE4710 imager or the SE4770/SR560 engine for longer range: the RS5100 reads up to twice as far as the earlier RS507X, and a UPC-A barcode up to around 66 cm away. Single and double trigger mounts and back-of-hand mounting suit different tasks and hand sizes.
Built for full shifts
At only 70 g, the RS5100 is comfortable all day. Choose a 480 mAh standard or 735 mAh extended PowerPrecision+ battery; the extended battery also supports operation down to -20 °C for cold-store work.
Rugged and easy to pair
The RS5100 survives multiple 1.8 m drops and 1,000 tumbles and is IP65 sealed. NFC tap-to-pair connects it to a host in seconds, and programmable RGB LEDs and an 85 dBA beeper confirm every scan.
