The Honeywell SwiftRFID Wearable 8690i is a compact, enterprise-grade wearable RFID mini mobile computer designed to accelerate hands‑free data capture across warehousing, retail, manufacturing and field service operations. Combining integrated RFID reading with 1D/2D barcode imaging and wireless connectivity, the 8690i variants support ring, glove and compact wearable form factors to match diverse workflows. Rugged construction, industry IP protection and hot‑swap or extended battery options help maintain continuous operation through long shifts, while Bluetooth and Wi‑Fi connectivity enable real‑time data exchange with host systems. The platform reduces manual entry errors, improves picking and inventory accuracy, and consolidates multiple capture tools into a single, deployment‑ready wearable device.

Key Features

  • Hands‑free wearable design: Ring, glove and compact wearable form factors keep scanning on the hand to speed picking, sorting and asset tracking tasks.
  • Integrated RFID + barcode capture: Supports EPC Gen 2 RFID and omni‑directional 1D/2D imaging to consolidate RFID and barcode workflows.
  • Reliable wireless connectivity: Bluetooth 5.0 and dual‑band Wi‑Fi (2.4/5 GHz) enable robust, low‑latency connection to enterprise systems.
  • Rugged and operationally ready: IP54/IP55 protection, drop and tumble specifications, and ESD protection deliver durability in demanding environments.
  • Shift‑capable power: Options for compact batteries or extended 3400 mAh packs with hot‑swap support minimize downtime during long shifts.
