DC-4423 - Industrial Handheld Data Collector

The DC-4423 is an ergonomic, rugged portable data terminal combining the flexibility of the Windows CE .NET operating system with wireless data communications, bar code scanning, and the highest performing Intel PXA255 XScale microprocessor. The DC-4423 with its overmolded enclosure is designed for warehouse, distribution center, and retail in store environments, where maximum performance is required in a rugged yet ergonomic form factor.

The DC-4423 color mobile computer incorporates all of the features users are demanding today, including the latest in mobile computing technology from Microsoft, Cisco, and Intel, a wide variety of scanning options (Standard, Long Range, and Advanced Long Range laser scanners, linear imager, and a 2D imager), a large 3.5 QVGA color display, a 2000 mAh Lithium Ion battery, and an integrated handle.

The DC-4423 is available with either a 26-key alphanumeric keypad for primarily numeric keypad data entry and a 48-key or 52-key full alpha keypad for numeric and text data entry. Two versions of the 52-key full alpha are available: a standard 52-key keypad and a 5250 Terminal Emulation keypad with 5250 specific keys.

Tested to repeated 5.0 / 1.5 M drops to concrete, a thermoplastic urethane overmolded enclosure, an IP54 environmental rating, and an 86dBA (at 24) / 100dBA (at 10 cm) beeper, the DC-4423 is designed to handle demanding data collection tasks in commercial and industrial environments.

The DC-4423 includes the Microsoft Pocket WordPad, Internet Explorer 6.0 (browser), and Inbox (email) applications so you are ready to run right out of the box.
