The P470/P370 RF Scanner

Introduction

The P470/P370 cordless RF scanners bring new flexibility and economy to data capture
and data management in both industrial and retail operations. The scanner communicates
with your host computer through radio transmission instead of through a cable. With the RF
scanner, you are free to scan and transmit without a physical cable, from as far away as
100 feet (30.5 meters) even without a direct line of sight. This lets you take the scanner to
where the work is, whether on the loading dock, the plant floor, the warehouse, or the POS
checkout area. There are several versions available:
• P470: cordless retail scanner
• P370: cordless industrial scanner
• P370 ALR: cordless industrial ALR scanner
Unless otherwise noted, the term Phaser refers to all versions of the scanner.
