## Long description

The Zebra DS4608-HC handheld bar code reader is designed for healthcare environments and intended for use throughout hospitals — from the NICU to pharmacy and laboratory workflows. The scanner supports both 1D and 2D barcodes and features a safe LED aimer, a high-resolution sensor with PRZM Intelligent Imaging, and a disinfectant-ready housing with IP52 protection for reliable daily use.
Advantages
The DS4608-HC combines a high-resolution 800 MHz processor and megapixel sensor with PRZM imaging to deliver accurate first-pass decoding of virtually any barcode type and condition. The housing is disinfectant-ready with covered screw and speaker holes, a recessed scan window and a double-sealed optical system to protect critical components. It offers flexible feedback modes including vibration, visible decode LED, adjustable beep and Zebra’s Direct Decode Indicator, plus a safe LED aimer appropriate for NICU use. The scanner endures repeated 1.8 m drops and extensive tumble testing for daily durability.

How to use
For handheld scanning, point the DS4608-HC at the barcode and pull the trigger; the LED aimer and illumination will assist aiming and capture. For hands-free operation, place the scanner in the optional presentation stand to switch automatically to presentation mode. Use Multi-Code Data Formatting (MDF) when you need to capture multiple barcodes with a single trigger pull, and Zebra’s Preferred Symbol to target a single barcode among multiple codes. Connections to host systems are automatic with auto-host detect cables—simply plug in the scanner to the appropriate interface.
Usage recommendations
Regularly clean the disinfectant-ready housing according to your facility’s approved disinfectant guidelines; avoid abrasive cleaners and ensure screw and speaker covers remain intact. Use night mode with vibration in low-light or sensitive patient areas (such as NICU) to reduce disturbance. For large deployments, use Zebra’s 123Scan or Scanner Management Service (SMS) to configure and update devices remotely.
