Dolphin Mobile Charging/Communication Cradles

As the hub of Dolphin mobile data collection systems, Dolphin Mobile Charging/Communication cradles perform three important functions – power conditioning, communications and storage. Two versions of the mobile charging/communication cradles are available:

Dolphin Mobile IntelliBase™ for use with in-transit data collection applications.

Dolphin Mobile Base for use with in-premise warehouse data collection applications.

Power Conditioning

The charging/ communication cradles provide power to the Dolphin terminal to enable the terminal to charge its battery.

Ir/IrDA Optical Communications

The infrared, or Ir, communications port on the cradles connect with the IrDA port on the Dolphin terminal. With no pins or contacts to break, Ir will work reliably for years. Reliable data communications at speeds of up to 115k baud can be transmitted by the both versions of the cradle.

The Mobile IntelliBase and Mobile Base infrared connection to the terminal uses IrDA-compliant hardware and software for a standard reliable connection.

Convenient Storage

The Mobile IntelliBase and Mobile Base are safe, convenient storage receptacles for the Dolphin terminal.
