Honeywell Granit 1981i Barcode Scanner Wireless, Long-Range, Area Imager, Bluetooth, IP65, Red

The Honeywell Granit 1981i is a rugged handheld 2D area-imager barcode scanner engineered for industrial and warehouse environments where long-range, reliable capture is required. Designed for distribution centers, manufacturing floors, logistics and cold‑storage operations, this cordless scanner reads 1D and 2D codes across close and extended distances while surviving drops, tumbles and vibration in demanding workflows. With Bluetooth wireless mobility, multi‑interface integration options, an IP65-rated housing and features such as an integrated laser aimer and vibration feedback, the Granit 1981i delivers consistent throughput, simplified deployment and reduced downtime for B2B scanning applications.

Key Features

• Full-range scanning: Area-imager performance supports both close-up and long-distance reads, covering operational ranges up to the device's specified maximum.
• Rugged industrial design: IP65 ingress protection, drop and tumble resistance ensure reliable operation in harsh warehouse and production settings.
• Cordless mobility: Bluetooth Class 1 wireless connectivity and extended wireless range enable flexible movement and placement across large work areas.
• Multi-interface compatibility: Works with RS232, KBW (keyboard wedge) and USB for straightforward integration into existing systems.
• Accurate targeting and feedback: Integrated laser-spot aimer, centering and vibration feedback improve aiming and user confidence during high-volume scanning.
• Shift-ready power and kit options: Rechargeable lithium‑ion battery and available kits (charging/transmitter cradle, USB/RS-232 cables) support sustained operation and simple deployment.
