Superior performance for all barcode types and conditions

Combining an 800 MHz microprocessor, megapixel sensor, and Zebra’s PRZM Intelligent Imaging, the DS8100 Series excel in capturing barcodes in medical environments, handling everything from dense and tiny codes to those that are damaged or poorly printed.

Innovative antibacterial housing design

The DS8100-HC Series is engineered with special materials that withstand frequent and rigorous disinfecting, preventing bacterial spread effectively, even after multiple wipe-downs.

Multiple feedback options including Night Mode

Selectable feedback options are available to suit different hospital environments, including haptic/vibration, adjustable beep tones, LED indicators, and a direct decode indicator, ensuring proper scan verification without disturbing patients.

Green LED aimer for sensitive care areas

Featuring a non-laser green LED aimer, the DS8100-HC is ideal for use in neonatal and PTSD-sensitive areas.

Versatile power solutions

Choose between a PowerPrecision+ battery or PowerCap capacitor, which can be interchanged seamlessly. The battery provides extensive scanning hours, while the rapidly chargeable capacitor fits scenarios where the scanner is often placed back in its cradle.

Instant power status with Power Charge Gauge

The DS8100-HC offers an easy-to-read power status, ensuring healthcare workers can quickly check the battery or capacitor levels at the start of each shift.

Automated UDI capture

Zebra’s UDI Scan+ streamlines the process of capturing and recording UDI data with simple barcode scans, requiring no manual entry and ensuring data accuracy and compliance.

Reliable charging with Connect+ Contact Technology

The DS8100-HC charging cradles, equipped with Connect+ Contact Technology, guarantee effective, corrosion-resistant charging for the lifespan of the device.

Space-saving USB powered cradles

The compact design of the USB powered cradles ensures they fit well in busy work environments, allowing easy access to handheld and hands-free modes, suitable for mounting on walls or mobile stations.

Workstation illumination without disturbance

The built-in lamp of the DS8100-HC Series offers workspace illumination, allowing healthcare professionals to work without turning on disruptive overhead lights.

Minimize Bluetooth interference with Wi-Fi Friendly Mode

Ensure Bluetooth scanners operate on non-WLAN channels, preserving Wi-Fi network quality for all hospital staff and visitors.

Quickly locate misplaced scanners

The paging button on the cradle helps recover misplaced scanners swiftly, reducing time spent searching for equipment.

Exclusive visibility into scanner performance and battery life

Zebra’s ScanSpeed Analytics and PowerPrecision+ batteries offer unparalleled insights into scanner performance and battery health, facilitating better resource management and uninterrupted operations.

Comprehensive scanner management tools

Using 123Scan, quickly generate configuration barcodes. Remote firmware updates and configurations can be performed using Scanner Management Service (SMS) for any connected DS8100-HC Series device, reducing the need for physical access.

Streamline scanning with DataCapture DNA

DataCapture DNA empowers the DS8100-HC Series with advanced development, visibility, and productivity tools, highlighting Zebra’s five decades of technological expertise to enhance scanner utility and reduce total cost of ownership.
