The Datalogic Gryphon GBT4500 is a premium Bluetooth handheld scanner designed for retail, logistics, and healthcare environments. It stands out in the market with its innovative wireless induction charging system, which eliminates physical charging pins—the most common point of failure in cordless scanners. With a high-resolution megapixel sensor and Datalogic's signature "Green Spot" feedback, it offers an elite scanning experience for both 1D and 2D barcodes.

Datalogic Gryphon GBT4500: Wireless 2D Scanning Guide

The GBT4500 is the industry-leading 2D barcode scanner for UK retail and healthcare. It is specifically designed to solve the most common "pain point" in wireless scanning: broken charging contacts.

• Inductive Wireless Charging: Unlike standard scanners, the Gryphon uses "Contactless Charging" technology. This eliminates the need to clean charging pins and prevents the scanner from failing due to wear and tear.

• 2D Imager Technology: Fully compatible with QR codes, digital coupons on phone screens, and UK Age-Restricted ID scanning.

• MPN Strategy: We stock the Full USB Kit which includes the scanner, the wireless charging base, and the 2m USB cable required for immediate "Plug & Play" setup with your POS system.

Key Features

• Inductive Wireless Charging: No charging contacts means higher reliability, easier cleaning, and a longer device lifespan.

• Bluetooth 4.0 with BLE: Provides a secure wireless connection with a range of up to 100 metres (depending on the base station).

• Megapixel Performance: High-resolution sensor allows for the rapid capture of difficult, small, or damaged barcodes, as well as digital codes on smartphone screens.

• "Green Spot" & 3GL: Datalogic’s patented technology provides a green spot directly on the barcode for positive read confirmation, supported by dual Good Read LEDs.

• Motionix™ Technology: Automatically senses the user's movements to switch between handheld and presentation (hands-free) scanning modes seamlessly.

• Eye-Friendly White Illumination: Soft white lighting is more comfortable for operators during long shifts and performs better on coloured or low-contrast barcodes.
