Zebra DS3678-XR

The longest reach on this site. Rugged, cordless, reads 1D and 2D, and reads them from a distance rather than at arm's length - which is what the XR in the name is for.

Kit is the scanner, a shielded USB cable, the cradle, its power supply and the DC lead, plus the mains cord. Stocked as XR only; the standard range version is not something we can currently price.

What $1,999 buys. Part DS3678-XR3U42A2SVW, exactly as Zebra ships it.
A warehouse worker in a hard hat reaching up with a rugged green Zebra scanner to read a yellow 2D location label on a stack of pallets.
The yellow labels on those pallets are 2D, not bars. That is the whole reason this scanner exists rather than the LI3678 beside it - and the reason it reaches, rather than the operator climbing.
Why this one

When the label is a long way up.

This is the most expensive scanner we sell, and it earns that in exactly one situation - which is worth being honest about before you spend two thousand dollars.

01

The label is out of reach

High racking, a yard, a container, a bulk store. Reading from the floor rather than from a ladder or a forklift is the whole point, and it is a safety argument as much as a speed one.

02

And it is 2D

An extended range 1D scanner is the LI3678-ER at $727. If the distant labels are DataMatrix rather than bars, that scanner cannot read them at any range and this one can.

03

If neither is true, do not buy it

For 2D on a warehouse floor at normal distance, the DS3608 is $950. The extra thousand here buys reach and nothing else.

Warranty

3 years, return to base — the unit comes back to us for repair or replacement rather than somebody coming out to you. Warranty runs by model rather than by price, so it is worth checking against whatever else you are comparing.

01

Not in stock until 1 November 2026

This one is worth saying before anything else on the page. It can be ordered now and it will be held for you, but it does not ship until stock lands in 1 November 2026. If you need a scanner before then, ring us and we will tell you what is on the shelf today instead of selling you a wait.

02

Nothing is paid until it is close

We do not take money months ahead for something sitting in a container. Tell us what you need and we will put your name against it; the quote and the payment happen when the stock is in sight.

03

Tell us the part number and how many

That is genuinely all we need. You get a written quote back with freight worked out to your actual address, because a scanner to Parramatta and one to Port Hedland are not the same delivery and we would rather not pretend otherwise. A new account pays before it ships, and the clock starts when the payment confirms.

04

Been comparing online? Send us the quote

If you have a written quote from somebody else on the same part number, we will match it. No haggling required, and no need to pretend you have not been looking.
