Advanced data capture features for industrial-grade applications
The Symbol LS 3408ER reads bar codes from as far away as 45 ft (14.6meters) and as close as 5 inches (13cm) to give you the kind of versatility that's necessary for today's industrial applications. The rugged housing, sealed to IP65 standards, withstands repeated drops of up to 6.5ft (2meters) to concrete, ensuring limited downtime. In fact, the Symbol LS 3408ER maintained its reliability when subjected to multiple drops in a specialized tumble test conducted in the widely recognized Symbol Industrial Design Labs.

For applications requiring quick access and convenient storage, the Symbol LS 3408ER features a built-in metal hook for attachment to a pulley. Two large LED-enhancing windows and an extra loud 80 decibel (db) beeper are strategically placed on the scanner for clear and audible feedback to users.

The smartest way to capture mission-critical information
The standard range Symbol LS 3408ER from Symbol Technologies, the Enterprise Mobility Company, was designed specifically for industrial applications. When you choose the Symbol LS 3408ER, you receive the added assurance of purchasing from Symbol - a company with proven advanced data capture capabilities and millions of scanner installations worldwide.
