Using a combination of Bluetooth® wireless connectivity and the exclusive Adaptus™ Imaging Technology 5.0, the Honeywell 4820 is a stylish and sturdy portable distance imager for commercial and retail barcode reading. This device has been especially optimized to enhance your enterprise productivity. Cables are a limiting factor in the case of applications that require operators to move around in order to read barcodes. The use of cables also leads to ergonomic and safety issues, which results in expensive operational deficits. With a cordless barcode reader, users can move around quickly, comfortably, and safely, to read the barcode information within a range of 10 meters (33 feet). Because barcode reading falls into the category of mission-critical operations, the 4820 portable area imager has been designed with a special focus on reliability and durability. As it has a sturdy housing and lacks any moving parts, leading to years of reliable service.

Further, the interference from existing RF back bones; is significantly reduced by Bluetooth® v1.2 Class 2 Radio. Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is used exclusively by v1.2 to decrease the intersection of information within the frequency band of 2.4 GHz, while dispensing at a working range of 10 meters (33 feet). The device has the tiniest footprint in its class, thereby simplifying the installation process and saving valuable space on the counter. It also offers the possibility of hand-free information gathering while the imager is still firmly attached to the base. Host-powered RF link and interface – Exclusive Honeywell broadens the mobility of this device by pulling power for host and radio contacts from a portable device. It has a field-replaceable, long-lasting, high functioning lithium ion battery that allows up to 50,000 scans without any need for conditioning. It also has a lack of any moving parts, as well as a solid top notch design that tolerates more than 50 falls from a height of 1.8 meters (6 feet) and concrete.
