Barcode Scanner Zebra 560B (inateck) with data transfer station, gray

Handheld barcode scanner Zebra 560B (inateck) in gray with a dedicated data transfer station. Designed to read 1D barcodes quickly and reliably, the device combines a compact, lightweight handheld unit with a charging and communication dock to transfer scanned data to a host system. The package is intended for environments where frequent scanning and periodic synchronization with a computer or POS system are required, such as retail, inventory control and logistics.

Advantages

The Zebra 560B offers fast single-line barcode reading and a simple workflow for storing and forwarding scans via its transfer station. Its ergonomic shape and light weight support extended handheld use, while the docking station provides secure charging and a stable interface for data synchronization. The system reduces manual data entry by enabling batch transfer of scanned records to a connected host, improving process efficiency.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Retail checkout and price verification
• Stocktaking and warehouse inventory
• Shipping labels and logistics tracking
• Point-of-sale systems requiring periodic data upload

When it may not be suitable

This scanner is intended for 1D barcode capture and batch transfer; it may not be suitable where 2D (QR) barcode reading is required or where continuous real-time wireless transmission of each scan is necessary. Environments needing rugged, industrial-grade housing or IP-rated water and dust protection should consider devices specifically designed for harsh conditions.

Key specifications

• Form factor: Handheld scanner with separate charging/communication dock
• Supported barcode type: 1D linear barcodes
• Connectivity for data transfer: Dock-based wired interface to host systems
• Power: Rechargeable battery in handheld unit, dock charges the scanner
• Color: Gray
• Typical applications: Retail, inventory, logistics, POS

How to use

Use the Zebra 560B by aiming the scanner at the barcode and pressing the trigger to capture the code; scanned items are stored in the scanner's memory. Place the handheld unit into the supplied data transfer station to charge the battery and initiate synchronization with the host via the dock's wired connection. Follow host software prompts to import or export stored scan records. Regularly charge the scanner by returning it to the dock when not in active use to ensure continuous operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that target barcodes are standard 1D formats compatible with the scanner
• Check that the dock's wired interface is compatible with your host or POS system
• Assess whether batch transfer via a dock meets your workflow needs versus real-time wireless transfer
• Consider the expected duty cycle and whether the scanner's ergonomic design and battery capacity suit prolonged use

Usage recommendations

For reliable results, position the scanner perpendicular to the barcode at the manufacturer's recommended reading distance, keep lenses clean of dust and debris, and synchronize scans regularly by docking the unit. Integrate the dock with your host software following vendor instructions to ensure correct data mapping and timestamps.
