CN51 Mobile Computer
Overview
The Honeywell CN51 Mobile Computer offers unparalleled versatility, allowing the choice of Windows® or Android™ operating systems on a single device. It is coupled with a power-packed 1.5 GHz dual-core, multi-engine processor, 1 GB RAM, and 16 GB Flash, providing a high degree of future-proofing capability.
The device is designed for a superior user experience, featuring a large, multi-touch, outdoor-readable screen that provides ample room for application viewing with less scrolling and greater productivity. It also offers more space for capturing signatures. The CN51 is equipped with state-of-the-art smart battery technology, delivering enough power to last a full shift and reducing the cost for replacement batteries.
A picture of the Honeywell CN51 mobile computer shows its front and side profiles, highlighting its rugged design and screen. The device is presented in a way that emphasizes its advanced capabilities and versatility for mobile workers.
The CN51 computer is equipped with a high-performance imager that provides quick and accurate barcode scanning capabilities, even in low-light scanning environments. It features unmatched motion tolerance to eliminate costly delays and user frustration during scan-intensive applications.
The 5-megapixel color camera, combined with Honeywell's cutting-edge image processing technologies, delivers advanced capability beyond reading barcodes. Mobile Document Imaging (MDI) and Remote Deposit Capture (RDC) provide a fast and reliable way to convert full-size paper documents or check payments into electronic files while out on the road, transmitting directly from the point of capture to the back-office workflow.
Honeywell's support services help protect investments by reducing unexpected operational impacts of network communication issues and minimizing device downtime due to accidental breakage.
Enterprises with large, geographically dispersed workforces need adaptable network coverage. The CN51 computer offers voice-capable Flexible Network Radio (in North America), allowing the same device to operate on either CDMA or UMTS wireless networks. The device can be switched on the fly, depending on which network provides the best geographic coverage or the lowest cost.
Industry-leading software and service solutions like CloneNGo offer breakthrough device provisioning, making it easy to replicate a master configuration across an unlimited number of devices for quick deployment. Honeywell SmartSystems™ Foundation also monitors key subsystems, including scanning, communications, and device health, to prevent issues before they impact operations.
