Product Overview
The Intermec CN50 is the only 3.75G wireless mobile computer that
combines a small and lightweight form factor with a rugged design to
deliver the most advanced, high performance voice and data
communication solution specifically designed for the highly mobile
field worker.
With the class leading capabilities of the CN50 in their
mobile workers’ hands, enterprises can improve their business
processes, expand their service offerings and reduce the cost and
complexity of a field mobility solution.
As the first device in the industry to offer a 3.75G wireless
WAN Flexible Network™ Radio, the CN50 allows enterprises to finally
standardize on a single hardware platform that can be configured for
either CDMA or UMTS wireless networks. This gives enterprises the
flexibility to choose the network that provides the best geographic
coverage and the lowest cost.
With a single hardware solution to deploy, enterprises can
simplify application development, lessen verification complexity,
reduce deployment costs, and dramatically lower overall
cost-of-ownership. As your business needs change or coverage options
evolve, the Flexible Network Radio can be re-provisioned to a different
carrier network.
The CN50 has the latest 3.75G wireless WAN radio to deliver
the fastest data and voice communications available on both CDMA and
UMTS wireless networks. With high speed uplink packet access (HSUPA)
technology, the CN50 provides fast and reliable data connectivity for
uploading large documents, real-time images or synchronization with
your enterprise data base. Compared with previous 2.5G radio
technology, the CN50 provides improved productivity today, and allows
enterprises to realize future benefits as the network capabilities
continue to improve.
The CN50 is built on a unique multi-processor architecture
with dedicated ARM and DSP processors to deliver robust application
processing with nearly instantaneous response, all at the lowest levels
of power consumption. The extended-life battery provides ample power to
drive consistent, full-featured functionality without compromise to the
compact and lightweight design.
The EA11 imager provides a familiar “laser-like” aimer and
scanning performance that is optimized for scan intensive applications,
including small or damaged barcodes. The EA21 imager provides great
performance for 1D/2D barcodes as well as Intermec document imaging.
The CN50 with EA21 imager, features an optional imaging
application called Intermec Enhanced Mobile Document Imaging (eMDI)
which gives mobile workers a fast and reliable way to convert paper
documents into electronic files. eMDI helps streamline back office
operations and improves cash flow by reducing time-to-payment for
services rendered because delivery confirmations can be imaged in the
field and sent wirelessly to the home office. Customer service and
other staff gain real-time access to document images, via the
enterprise systems, which can be used to answer customer queries, issue
invoices, and update records.
The integrated digital compass provides a real-time indication
of directional heading to enhance the functionality of the GPS radio.
By improving the accuracy of the turn-by-turn directions, mobile
workers are able to deliver better customer service and improve on-time
delivery.
A built-in accelerometer allows the CN50 to rotate the display
based on the orientation of the device, improving worker efficiency and
the user experience during signature capture or similar operations. A
bright 3.5” QVGA display provides exceptional viewing indoors and
outside.
The CN50 features a Bluetooth® v2.1 EDR radio which provides
secure wireless connectivity to headsets, Intermec mobile printers and
other Bluetooth compatible devices for simple and convenient
connectivity. The Wi-Fi certified 802.11 radio enables fast and secure
voice communications or end-of-day synchronization with your enterprise
network.
With industry-leading cell phone technology at its core, the
small and lightweight CN50 bridges the gap between a mobile computer
and a traditional cell phone to provide high-quality voice
communications without the expense of deploying and maintaining a
separate device.
The no compromise design includes both a high performance 3 MP
color camera with auto-focus and flash, and a dedicated area imager for
responsive 1D and 2D barcode reading.
The industry standard platform in the CN50 includes either
Microsoft® Windows Mobile 6.1 or Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 which
enables the device to integrate quickly and easily with existing
systems and provides familiar operation for end users. These two
operating system options provide integrated support for Systems Center
Mobile Device Manager (SCMDM), allowing enterprise IT Managers to
securely provision, configure, and deploy application software, device
settings, and policies for populations of CN50 devices from the
convenience of their management consoles.
Developers can access a comprehensive software toolkit through
the Intermec Developer Library to simplify application development and
shorten time to deployment.
Intermec SmartSystems™ software simplifies remote device
management, by automatic staging, applying periodic system and software
updates, as well as configuration changes, to keep on-going system
maintenance costs low, and your CN50s performing in top condition.
The Intermec CN50 mobile computer is designed specifically for
on-the-go field mobility customer service operations that need to be
completed faster using only a single device that combines robust
application processing, automated barcode data scanning and document
capture, digital camera functionality, and 3G wireless WAN voice and
data communication in a rugged compact package necessary to achieve
better customer service and bottom line results, now and in the future.
