Class-leading ergonomics

Zebra’s award-winning Industrial Design team developed a pocketable device that is easy to hold, while key size, key placement and display size make it easy to see and easy to use.

True field durability

The MC45 is built for life out in the field, able to handle drops, bumps, spills, dust, vibration and the thermal shock that often occurs as workers travel from a climate controlled vehicle to the outdoors.

Advanced 1D scanning technology

Our industry-leading 1D scan engine with Adaptive ScanTM technology makes scan-intensive tasks easy — a broad scanning range allows the easy capture of bar codes from near contact to as far as 15 ft./4.5 m away, even if they are dirty, damaged or poorly printed.

“Inside-outside” wireless connectivity

Keep workers connected out on the road and in the office with 3.5G GSM HSDPA cellular and 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi.

GPS services in more areas

Workers can count on dependable GPS access to real-time directions and geostamps that automatically capture information for applications — even in challenging urban areas, dense foliage or inside buildings.

Expand functionality with our complete accessory family

Our full family of desktop and vehicle charging cradles, holsters and cables makes it easy for users to manage the MC45 out on the road and in the depot. The MC45 can accept practically any type of payment — including Chip and PIN-based credit and debit cards — through Zebra’s Mobile Payment Module. Bluetooth provides an easy wireless connection to third-party mobile printers, headsets and more.

Comprehensive camera functionality

The integrated 3.2 MP color camera allows workers to capture practically any type of data to streamline business processes, including 2D bar codes, as well as photos and videos.

Best battery power in its class

With the most battery power in its class, the MC45 delivers plenty of power for a full shift — even in wireless or usage intensive environments.

Built-in support for OS-agnostic applications

Support for Zebra Technologies RhoMobile Suite enables the deployment of HTML5 based OS-agnostic applications, substantially reducing application development time and costs — a single application can run on mobile devices with different operating systems.
