Two-metre Lightning-to-USB-A cables

This pack contains two cables each measuring two metres with a Lightning connector on one end and a USB-A plug on the other. They are built for Symbol and Motorola barcode scanners such as the LS2208, LS1203, LS4208 and DS6708. The grey Dura-Gray jacket uses a fogging treatment to resist scratches in daily warehouse use.

Replaces legacy PS/2 and RS232 links

The cables let you move from older PS/2 or RS232 scanner connections to a standard USB-A port once the host device is configured for USB. The upgrade is worthwhile when a workstation lacks legacy ports or when a single USB cable simplifies cabling at a checkout or inventory station.

Plug in and configure the scanner

Installation is a simple matter of connecting the Lightning end to the scanner and the USB-A end to the host, then completing the scanner’s USB configuration setting. The main issue is forgetting that configuration step, which leaves the scanner silent on the bus despite a good physical connection.

Questions about this item

Will the USB-A connector fit my PC's standard port?

Yes, the USB-A end plugs into any standard USB-A port on a PC or hub.

What setting must I finish after plugging the cable into my LS2208 scanner?

Configure the scanner's host interface to USB in its setup menu so it replaces the PS/2 or RS-232 connection.

How often should I replace these cables in a busy warehouse?

Replace when the anti-scratch fogged surface shows wear or the connectors become loose, typically after heavy daily use.
