Available in two configurations, the Symbol P370 scanner and Symbol P470 scanner deliver rugged and high quality cordless scanning. IP54 standards allow both cordless scanners to be suited for extreme environments such as water, dust, and varying temperature exposure, and provide the durability to be able to withstand multiple 6 ft (1.8 m) drops to concrete. The Symbol P370 scanner and the P470 scanner are available in an Advanced Long Range version that reads 100 mil retro reflective symbols from as far away as 30 ft/9 m, and utilize 2.4 GHz point-to-point radio frequency technology.

For added versatility, the Symbol P370 scanner and Symbol P470 scanner offers MCL™-Designer, which is a programmable architecture that extends functionality to deliver portable terminal-like capabilities. MCL™-Designer features an intuitive graphical user interface, which allows even non-programmers to develop custom data management applications that harness the scanners' keypad, display and onboard computing power. MCL-Link communication software is able to be used to connect the Symbol P370 scanner and Symbol P470 scanner to your host, which allows for real-time two-way messaging, ODBC database connectivity and the automation of frequent tasks such as monthly application upgrades.

The cradle for both the Symbol P370 scanner and Symbol P470 scanner features integrated RS-232 and Synapse interfaces for connectivity to all popular hosts. The cradle accommodating both scanners serves as a holder, two-way RF transmitter and battery charging station. For added convenience, both cordless scanners support 123Scan™. This Windows®-based Advanced Data Formatting utility enables bar coded data to be formatted before transmission to the host device, thereby ensuring compatibility with the host application.
