Intermec has launched the CN50 and the CN4 – said to be the most advanced, rugged 3G Wireless WAN (WWAN) mobile computers for field mobility applications. The CN50 includes 3.75G WWAN HSUPA radio technology in a small, lightweight, ruggedized form factor providing mobile workforces in postal, field service, transportation, and delivery operations with the industry’s highest performance mobile computer. The CN4 is the ideal mobile computing solution for operations requiring support for fully-rugged front line transactions, including commercial transportation, store delivery, and demanding field service applications. Both products enable customers to leverage enterprise mobility applications with higher data exchange requirements, and offer a range of features designed to maximize mobile worker productivity, uptime, and on-the-route service capability.
The CN50 utilizes the latest cutting-edge communications technology being deployed by leading network operators around the world, and coupled with Intermec’s new multi-processor architecture, delivers data uploads up to five times faster than any other mobile computer available. The CN50 enables mobile workers to run data-intensive applications not practical with other solutions.
The CN50 features a Flexible Network Radio that can be re-provisioned to a different network as business needs or coverage options evolve. This capability enables customers to deploy a single hardware solution on the wireless network offering the best cost and geographic coverage.
The CN50’s compact design can reduce fatigue for mobile workers requiring extended or even day-long use, and with its five-foot drop specification, the CN50 ensures reliable operation for mobile workers connected in real-time to critical enterprise applications.
The CN4 is the lightest, most rugged 3.5G wireless network device in its class—designed to perform in the most demanding work environments. With a six-foot drop specification—on all faces, sides and corners, compact internal antenna design, and IP64 sealing, the CN4 can reduce worker downtime and the risk of critical data loss or lost revenue. The CN4 easily integrates with a wide range of compatible, performance-optimized printers and accessories for in-vehicle or stand-alone implementation, and shares system software and a wide range of accessories with Intermec’s leading CN3-series. Customers can continue to deploy the same applications across the enterprise, while leveraging the device’s more powerful 3.5G WWAN radio, GPS, voice and video functionality.
The CN50 and CN4 are both available with an optional Enhanced Mobile Document Imaging (eMDI) capability, providing mobile workers with a fast, reliable way to convert full page paper documents into electronic documents at the point-of-transaction. With eMDI-enabled devices, mobile workers now have the ability to transmit high-quality document images, captured in all lighting conditions, to back office applications in real-time. Seamless integration and compatibility with popular document management systems can simplify workflow, shorten billing cycles, and provide customer service and shipping operations ready access to documents for faster processing.
