Zebra DS457 Fixed Mount Scanner 2D, High Density, RS232/USB, IP54, Black

SKU: 

DS457-HDEU20009

The DS457-HDEU20009 is a serial-interface fixed mount scanner in the DS457-HD family, built to an IP54 ingress rating that suits retail POS counters, airport boarding gates, and manufacturing production lines. Its high-density 2D imager reads omnidirectionally across a broad symbology set -- all major 1D codes plus 2D formats including PDF417, DataMatrix, QR Code, Aztec, Composite Codes, and Maxi Code -- and extends to five postal standards: US Postnet, US Planet, UK Postal, Australian Postal, and Japan Postal. Depth of field spans from 1.0 in to 9.7 in depending on symbology and element size, covering Code 39 at 20 mil out to 9.7 in and Datamatrix at 4 mil from 1.6 in to 3.0 in. The fixed mount chassis measures 2.4 in wide, 2.3 in deep, and 1.2 in tall, weighing 3.92 oz in dark gray, with a USB cable sold separately from the serial host connection.

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.
