The label is out of reach
High racking, a yard, a container, a bulk store. Reading from the floor rather than from a ladder or a forklift is the whole point, and it is a safety argument as much as a speed one.
Rugged cordless · 2D-XR
Zebra DS3678-XR
The longest reach on this site. Rugged, cordless, reads 1D and 2D, and reads them from a distance rather than at arm's length - which is what the XR in the name is for.
Kit is the scanner, a shielded USB cable, the cradle, its power supply and the DC lead, plus the mains cord. Stocked as XR only; the standard range version is not something we can currently price. The link to the cradle is Bluetooth 4.1.
Why this one
When the label is a long way up.
This is the most expensive scanner we sell, and it earns that in exactly one situation - which is worth being honest about before you spend two thousand dollars.
01
02
And it is 2D
An extended range 1D scanner is the LI3678-ER at $839. If the distant labels are DataMatrix rather than bars, that scanner cannot read them at any range and this one can.
03
If neither is true, do not buy it
For 2D on a warehouse floor at normal distance, the DS3608 is $950. The extra thousand here buys reach and nothing else.

Warranty
3 years, return to base — the unit comes back to us for repair or replacement rather than somebody coming out to you. Warranty runs by model rather than by price, so it is worth checking against whatever else you are comparing.
01
In stock in Australia, and it ships straight to you
Every scanner on this site is held in an Australian warehouse rather than on a shelf in Sydney, and it goes from there to your door without stopping at our office. That saves a leg of freight and a day. Paid before 2pm on a business day and it generally leaves the same day.
02
Stock is first come, first served
A run on one model can mean a wait. If you buy here and it has already gone, you will hear from us that day with a date or your money back — not a month of silence.
03
Tell us the part number and how many
That is genuinely all we need. You get a written quote back with freight worked out to your actual address, because a scanner to Parramatta and one to Port Hedland are not the same delivery. On the items you can buy online we have set one flat $22 rate. A new account pays before it ships, and the clock starts when the payment confirms.
04
Been comparing online? Send us the quote
If you have a written quote from somebody else on the same part number, we will match it. No haggling required, and no need to pretend you have not been looking.
