Bar Code/802.11b Expansion Pod
The Bar Code/802.11b Expansion Pod integrates the wireless
networking technology and the laser bar code scanning technology
with the Allegro CE. Combining these two technologies adds a new
level of versatility and usability to the Allegro.
The Bar Code/802.11b expansion pod combines each individual pod,
which include:
• High performance bar code scanning in bright, outdoor light
• Scanning distances of 1 to 3 feet from the Allegro
• Excellent scan capability for poorly printed or low contrast bar
codes
• Low power performance
• Compatible with nine different bar code symbologies
• Superior range and throughput
• Indoors: 130 feet (40m) at 11 Mbps and 350 feet (107m) at 1 Mbps
• Outdoors: 800 feet (224m) at 11Mbps and 2000 feet (610m) at 1
Mbps, up to 5000 feet with external antenna on access point
• Secure network communications
• World mode for international roaming
The following example shows one work environment that could
greatly benefit from using an Allegro with the Bar Code and 802.11b
expansion pod. This is only one possible scenario, the efficiency and
usability of this expansion applies to a wide variety of bar code data
collection environments.
