PDC5500 Series Pocket 2D Data Collector
Compact Power for Mobile Inventory and Verification

Mobilizing Data Accuracy: Value on the Go, Reimagined

The PDC5500K Series is specifically engineered for professional environments where mobility cannot compromise data integrity. This device effectively bridges the gap between simple, one-way barcode scanners and expensive, oversized mobile computers, offering a smart, cost-effective solution for mobile workflows.

Its ultra-compact design and powerful 2D imager make it the ideal companion for workers performing tasks that require immediate feedback, quantity input, or file verification. The PDC5500K provides the flexibility of wireless Bluetooth operation combined with the reliability of a built-in memory terminal, ensuring that critical data is captured accurately, whether online or offline. This delivers significant Value on the Go by minimizing errors and maximizing worker efficiency across retail, warehousing, and logistics applications.

Key Features : Essential Features for Enhanced Mobile Workflows

Integrated OLED Display for Instant Verification

Unlike typical pocket scanners, the PDC5500K features a clear OLED screen. This allows operators to instantly view scanned data, verify item codes, check quantities, and receive feedback directly on the device, eliminating the need to constantly check a paired host device.

Batch Mode Memory for Data Loss Prevention

The built-in memory allows the PDC5500K to function as a data collector when out of Bluetooth range. Operators can store thousands of scans offline. Data is automatically uploaded upon reconnection, ensuring 100% data integrity during critical inventory or delivery tasks in signal dead zones.

Highly Versatile 2D Code Decoding

Equipped with a high-performance 2D imager, the device flawlessly captures virtually all 1D/2D barcodes, including high-density labels and complex QR codes. Its superior reading ability on glossy surfaces and smartphone screens is perfect for modern ticket and mPOS applications.

Pocket-Sized Ergonomics and Durability

At a mere 35g, its lightweight design ensures ultimate portability without compromising ruggedness (IP42 rating, 1.2m drop resistance). The compact form factor easily fits into a pocket or attached to a lanyard, minimizing physical fatigue during all-day mobile use.

Dual Wireless and Wired Connectivity

The PDC5500K offers seamless switching between Bluetooth for mobile freedom and wired USB connection for data transfer and charging. This dual-mode flexibility provides easy integration into existing infrastructure and charging stations.
