Zebra CS60 Series Convertible 1D/2D Companion Barcode Scanner (Bluetooth, Corded USB & Presentation, IP65)

Engineered to deliver breakthrough operational adaptability across retail aisles, boutique checkout counters, medical clinics, and light warehouse hubs, the Zebra CS60 Series Convertible 1D/2D Companion Barcode Scanner features an industry-first convertible form factor that transforms effortlessly between cordless pocket scanning, hands-free presentation countertop scanning, and corded USB operation.

Whether your workflow requires a compact cordless Bluetooth scanner that slips into an apron pocket or clips onto a belt lanyard, a hands-free presentation scanner mounted on a checkout stand, or a corded scanner connected directly to an enterprise POS workstation, the CS60 does it all simply by swapping the battery module with a USB corded cartridge. Powered by a high-resolution megapixels sensor (1280 × 800) with PRZM Intelligent Imaging, the CS60 captures challenging, poorly printed, damaged, and mobile phone display barcodes instantly. Featuring an innovative inductive wireless contact charging cradle (Qi-standard compatible) that eliminates dirt-collecting charging pins, an easy-to-clean monocoque seam-free housing rated IP65, and multi-interface Bluetooth 5.0 with NFC tap-to-pair, the CS60 guarantees maximum return on investment and frictionless operation.
