Adapts to any clinician workflow
First-of-its-kind convertible design minimizes investment risk Whether you need a cordless companion scanner paired to a cart-mounted cradle, mobile device or in-room workstation at the point of care; a hands-free presentation scanner in the lab; or a corded handheld scanner at the pharmacy, the CS60-HC has you covered. Simply swap the battery and corded USB converter at any time to change between corded and cordless scanning. Add the optional presentation stand or cradle to automatically switch between hands-free and handheld modes. This unparalleled versatility minimizes investment risk as it’s easy to meet new workflow needs or redeploy CS60-HC scanners to a different application
Proven scanning performance you can trust
With a high-resolution megapixel sensor and Zebra’s exclusive PRZM Intelligent Imaging technology, the CS60-HC easily and accurately captures the many kinds of barcodes commonly used in hospitals including barcodes on patient wristbands, medication vials, IV bags and specimen trays. When you choose the CS60-HC, you get Zebra’s world-renowned quality and reliability
Effortless multi-tasking with a second programmable button
A second programmable button can be used to instantly toggle between two host applications, such as Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and blood collection applications. With a quick press of the button, clinicians can send data to the right application in the proper format and order.
Purpose-built housing helps offer maximum protection against the spread of bacteria
Special plastics and IP65 sealing allow for safe wipe-downs with the widest selection of aggressive disinfectants used in today’s hospitals. And with a monocoque design, inductive sensing touch buttons and contactless charging, the scanner’s crevice-free surface helps eliminate places where germs can hide
Safe LED aimer can be used throughout the hospital
Thanks to a highly visible and safe LED aimer, the CS60-HC can be used in the NICU, labor and delivery and mother-baby units where the use of laser aimers is not advised. And the green aimer reduces the likelihood of triggering PTSD episodes
Flexible feedback modes — including night mode with vibrate
Choose the right feedback for any environment: a good decode LED, haptic feedback, a beep tone with adjustable tone/volume and Zebra’s Direct Decode Indicator that projects illumination on the barcode. In night mode, a quick press of the trigger toggles between an audible beep and vibration. Clinicians instantly know that a medicine vial or wristband was successfully scanned — while disturbing patients as little as possible.
Doubles as a workstation lamp
The scanner’s built-in lamp can illuminate a nurse’s workstation, so there’s no need to disturb sleeping patients by turning on the overhead lights
Qi inductive charging
Support for inductive charging on the CS60-HC eliminates the need for battery contact cleaning and maintenance.1 While you get the fastest charging times with Zebra’s inductive charging solution, you’re free to use any off-the-shelf Qi wireless charging pad to charge the CS60-HC.
Split-second NFC tap-to-pair
With built-in NFC, the CS60-HC easily pairs with other devices and in-room workstations — no IT support required.
Pocketable and wearable for room-to-room mobility
The cordless CS60-HC can be tucked in a scrub pocket and is designed to fit naturally in the hand for easy scanning. Pair the CS60-HC with the optional lanyard and silicone protector to safely and comfortably wear the scanner all shift long.
Full shift power and beyond
The fully charged battery delivers 18 hours of power — more than enough for a clinician’s longest shift. Batteries can be easily replaced without special tools. And a dedicated battery gauge takes the guesswork out of charge status, so clinicians know at a glance when it’s time to change or charge a battery.
Compact cradle fits on any workstation
The presentation cradle has a compact footprint that is elegantly crafted to fit on the most space-constrained workstations — whether mobile or in-room.
Extended 330 ft./100 m range
The CS60-HC is a certified BT 5.0 device. With Class 1 Bluetooth, users can roam up to 330 feet/100 m from the host device for greater flexibility.
Eliminate Bluetooth Interference with Wi-Fi Friendly Mode
Ensure that your cordless CS60-HC scanners only operate on channels that are not shared with your Wi-Fi network.
Minimize workflow disruptions with anti-loss tools
Press the cradle’s paging button to locate a misplaced cordless CS60-HC in seconds. With Zebra’s built-in Virtual Tether functionality, users are alerted when a device is taken out of range, misplaced or unintentionally left out of the cradle for an extended period of time — a helpful reminder to return the CS60-HC to its charger.
Keep spare batteries on hand with versatile charging options
Multiple charging options make it easy to keep your scanners and spare batteries charged for around-the-clock operation. Four-slot device and four-slot battery chargers are compatible with Zebra’s ShareCradle charging system for easy backroom management. And single-slot scanner and battery chargers are ideal on any desk.
Easily unlock the benefits of UDI
Zebra’s UDI Scan+ makes it easy to capture and enter Unique Device Identification (UDI) information into your application. Simply scan the barcode on the medical device packaging. The UDI barcode data is automatically parsed, properly formatted and sent in the right order to the right fields in your EMR or other application. No manual data entry is required.
Industry preferred management tools with DataCapture DNA
Only from Zebra, DataCapture DNA is a unique collection of value-add tools that make it easier to deploy, update, troubleshoot, manage and develop applications for your CS60-HC scanners. For example, 123Scan creates a single barcode to stage scanners or update firmware. You can remotely manage your scanners through Scanner Management Service (SMS) or Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), eliminating the time and cost for onsite visits. And more.
