This accessory is a cabled connector designed for use with Honeywell CW45 mobile computers and 8675i scanners. The cable replaces the 8675i scanner battery, providing both power and communication. It enables a tethered scanner connection between the 8675i scanner and the CW45 mobile computer. The connector can be installed on either the left or right I/O port of the CW45. It is compatible with both 8675i Standard Range (SR) and 8675i FlexRange (FR) scanner units. If the CW45 mobile computer is configured with a keypad, the cable can only be connected to the left side.
