About the IP30

The IP30 Handheld RFID Reader allows you to connect using Bluetooth™ or USB. Together, the IP30 and your mobile computer provide a high-performance mobile RFID solution that allows you to bring the read/write device to the tagged product rather than moving tagged products past a fixed reader.
The IP30 supports the following mobile computers:
CN3B and CN3F Mobile Computers. CN3 WAN configurations
are not supported with the IP30.
CN4 Series Mobile Computer
CK3 Series Mobile Computer
CK61 and CK61ex Series Mobile Computers
70 Series Mobile Computers
