Zebra Charging & Communication Station – TC5X

This Zebra charging and communication station is built to keep your TC5X handheld terminals ready throughout the working day. When a device comes back to the counter or the stockroom shelf, it drops into the station and charging starts straight away — no guessing whether the battery will last the next round.

Charges the device and a spare battery at the same time

The station charges one TC5X device and one spare battery simultaneously. In practice, that means you always have a fully charged spare on hand. A flat battery mid-shift stops work at the worst possible moment — with a swappable spare ready in seconds, that risk disappears.

Ethernet and USB through a single station

With both an Ethernet port and a USB connection built in, the station also acts as a communication dock. You can move data from the device to your network or desktop computer without a separate adapter. The setup works with most small-business network configurations, whether you run a wired LAN or connect directly to a till computer via USB.

What's in the box

The station ships with a power supply and DC cable, so you can get it running straight away. Note that the power cord (C13 connector) is ordered separately — check that you have a suitable cable available or add one to your order at the same time.

Compatibility and warranty

The station is designed for the Zebra TC5X series. Country of manufacture is Malaysia. The unit carries a 12-month warranty.

Why this suits a busy business

A long loop across a restaurant floor or a retail shop means a dead handheld battery interrupts work at exactly the wrong moment. This station removes that problem: the device is always ready when the morning shift starts or the evening team picks up where the last one left off. The station takes up little space, stays put, and does its job without needing any attention.
