Datalogic Magellan 1500i Barcode Scanner Black, Corded, USB-A, Tilting Stand, Magnetic Base

SKU: 

MG1501-10211-0200

Rated IP52 and built to withstand repeated drops from 1.2 m onto concrete, the Datalogic MG1501-10211-0200 is a corded, desktop-mount omnidirectional 2D area imager configured in black with a tilting stand, magnetic base, and USB-A cable included. It reaches a scanning distance of 11.81 in and handles a full 360-degree roll angle alongside a 75-degree skew and 65-degree pitch tolerance, keeping reads reliable across nearly any hand or counter presentation. The imager autodiscriminates all standard 1D codes including GS1 DataBar linear families, and decodes 2D symbologies -- Aztec Code, Data Matrix, MaxiCode and QR Code -- plus PDF417, Micro PDF417, GS1 DataBar stacked variants, and eleven postal code formats. Optional Digimarc Barcode and GS1 DW Code decoding extends coverage to digital watermarks. A minimum print contrast of 25% and a maximum ambient light tolerance of 86100 lux support consistent reads in bright retail, healthcare, and industrial settings. USB and serial host interfaces are supported, and the scanner measures 8.1 in long, 5.5 in wide, and 4.1 in tall.
