1D/2D CMOS · Bluetooth 5.0 · 2.4 GHz Smart Base · USB · Screen Scanning · Inventory Mode · Black
The Inateck BCST-54 is a flagship 1D/2D wireless barcode scanner that offers three distinct connection modes and an innovative Smart Base accessory — all in one package. Powered by Bluetooth 5.0 for mobile device connectivity, a 2.4 GHz wireless adapter (via the Smart Base) for PC use up to 100 metres away, and a direct USB cable for wired plug-and-play operation, the BCST-54 adapts to any workflow without reconfiguring your setup. The built-in CMOS sensor reads barcodes off smartphone and monitor screens, and the 270,000+ barcode inventory mode allows offline scanning in areas without wireless coverage. Available in Black.

BUYER'S GUIDE
Best For: Retail, warehouses, logistics, restaurants, and offices that need a versatile 1D/2D scanner without committing to a single connection method. The BCST-54 is ideal when the same scanner needs to work at a fixed PC checkout (2.4 GHz), on a tablet or phone (Bluetooth), and also via cable as a backup.
Smart Base Advantage: Unlike Bluetooth-only scanners that need separate charging cables, the Smart Base provides both wireless connectivity and charging in a single docking unit. Place the scanner in the base when not in use — it charges automatically and is instantly ready to scan when picked up.
Inventory Mode for Warehouses: The 270,000+ barcode buffer allows workers to scan freely in areas without wireless coverage — cold rooms, basements, remote racks — and sync all data when back in range.
Blue vs. Black: Both BCST-54 variants are identical in performance and specifications. Choose Black for a neutral, professional look that blends into any environment, or Blue for a distinctive accent colour.
