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.
