Powerscan 9600 RFID Series
The Datalogic PowerScan 9600 RFID Series is a rugged hybrid handheld scanner that reads both UHF RFID tags and standard barcodes in one device—ideal for accelerating throughput and improving inventory visibility across Retail, Transportation & Logistics, Manufacturing, and Healthcare.
Engineered for demanding environments, PowerScan 9600 RFID combines a durable, ultra-rugged build with advanced capture technology. It supports read/write of UHF RFID tags alongside 1D/2D barcodes, OCR, and image capture, helping reduce manual errors while integrating cleanly with retail and industrial communications. Cordless Bluetooth® models include an optional OLED display and 16-key keypad for faster quantity entry, location input, and on-device feedback.
Hybrid barcode + RFID in one device.
Read 1D/2D codes, OCR, and UHF RFID tags—including multi-tag reads—to boost productivity and future-proof traceability initiatives.
Ultra-rugged, built for abuse
Rated IP65/IP67 and tested to withstand 50 drops from 2.5 m (8.2 ft); trigger life is 10 million activations.
Wireless charging = fewer failures, lower TCO
Inductive charging removes fragile contacts and contributes to ~15% lower total cost of ownership vs. contact chargers.
Easy integration, retail and industrial
Modular BC9600 base supports USB, RS-232, Ethernet, plus EtherNet/IP and PROFINET for native fieldbus connectivity.
Operator-friendly options
Cordless Bluetooth® models, OLED display, and 16-key keypad streamline workflows like quantity entry or location confirmation.
Smart batteries and diagnostics
Health monitoring enables predictive maintenance and reduces downtime.
From shop floors to distribution centers and hospital storerooms, the 9600 RFID improves traceability, uptime, and compliance by unifying barcode and RFID workflows in one platform.
Typical Applications
- Retail (Home Improvement): Checkout, self-checkout, inventory management; hybrid reads reduce ticket switching and shrink.
