Zebra DS457-SR Fixed-Mount 2D Scanner Standard Range, Dual Interface, IP54, Black

SKU: 

DS457-SR20004ZZWW

Dual serial and USB connectivity defines the DS457-SR20004ZZWW's integration profile, letting it drop into retail POS lanes, manufacturing cells and transportation checkpoints over a standard cabled interface without additional hardware. This fixed-mount 2D imager from the Zebra DS457-SR line delivers omni-directional scanning across a 40-degree horizontal by 26-degree vertical field of view, reading 1D barcodes down to 5 mil and up to 20 mil (Code 39), DataMatrix from 7.5 mil to 15 mil, and PDF417 from 6.7 mil to 15 mil, with a minimum print contrast of 25%. The scanner operates in ambient light up to 96900 lux and withstands multiple 30 in. drops to concrete, backed by an IP54 ingress rating. Symbology coverage extends to QR Code, Aztec, MaxiCode, Composite Codes and five postal formats, and captured images can be stored as JPEG, BMP or TIFF. The black chassis measures 1.2 in. H x 2.3 in. L x 2.4 in. W and weighs 3.90 oz. RoHS compliance and a 3-year limited warranty round out the specification.

Description
ico-plus ico-minus

The Zebra DS457 Imager is a compact fixed‑mount barcode scanner engineered for hands‑free, embedded and point‑of‑service installations where space is limited but performance is essential. Designed to capture 1D, 2D and Direct Part Mark (DPM) codes — including PDF417, DataMatrix, QR Code and Aztec — the DS457 family supports retail checkout, self‑service kiosks, manufacturing lines, transportation sorting and security checkpoints. With a small footprint, robust IP54 sealing, up to 30‑inch drop resistance and fast decoding from a 752 x 480 imaging sensor, the DS457 delivers reliable, high‑throughput scanning and flexible system integration while minimizing downtime and installation complexity.

Key Features

  • Multi‑code capture: Reads 1D, 2D and DPM codes plus common symbologies (PDF417, DataMatrix, QR, Aztec) to support diverse workflows.
  • Compact fixed‑mount design: Small footprint and rigid construction make it ideal for kiosks, embedded stations and space‑constrained counters.
  • Flexible connectivity: Multiple interface options across variants — Serial/RS232, USB and YUN GUI — enable straightforward integration into existing systems.
  • Rugged deployment: IP54 ingress protection and 30‑inch drop resistance provide durability for industrial and retail environments.
  • Consistent, fast decoding: 752 x 480 imager and tuned decoding deliver accurate, rapid reads to keep throughput high and reduce rescans.
