Its 10.1-inch 1280x800 IPS capacitive touchscreen with glove-touch supports for operational efficiency in various conditions. It's equipped with MT6789 Octa-core processor with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, ensuring smooth performance for complex applications. A101 's customizable data capture suite are including optional UHF RFID, which supports Long-range reading up to 15 meters for bulk asset and pallet tracking; optional 2D Scanner, which choose from high-performance engines for precise barcode capture; optional configurable NFC (Front or back), supporting multiple protocols for access control or asset identification.
Besides, it features rugged reliability that meets IP67 for dust and water resistance and MIL-STD-810H for shock and drop, built to survive harsh daily use, and all-day power & connectivity that 10,000mAh large-capacity battery with 30W PD fast charging, global 4G LTE support, dual-band Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 5.0.
Why It Matters
Modern field operations require more than just durability, and they need a single device that can scan, identify, and process data from various sources—from a single barcode to hundreds of UHF tags meters away. The A101 meets this need by offering a modular approach to data capture, combined with robust 4G connectivity and a large, glove-touch-enabled display, which will streamline workflows in warehouse inventory and point-of-sale operations.
Use Cases
- Warehouse & Asset Management: Utilize the UHF RFID to perform rapid, long-range inventory counts of entire pallets or shelves without direct line-of-sight, dramatically reducing counting time.
- Logistics & Fleet Management: The large screen is ideal for driver telematics and proof-of-delivery. The optional 2D scanner quickly captures package barcodes, while 4G ensures real-time data sync.
- Retail & Inventory Auditing: Employees can use the built-in NFC to manage stock counts or the fingerprint reader for secure device login during mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) operations.
- Field Service & Inspection: The rugged build and glove-touch screen allow technicians to work efficiently outdoors. The customizable function keys and data capture options adapt to various diagnostic and reporting tools.
