The Qualcomm 4490 octa-core processor with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB flash runs multiple apps simultaneously, including AR and AI.
Ultra-rugged build for warehouse and freezer
IP65/IP68 sealing, 2.4 m drop resistance, and freezer battery make both models suitable for extreme logistics environments.
Product information
The Zebra MC9400 and MC9450 are the latest ultra-rugged handheld mobile computers in the MC9000 series, designed for intensive applications in warehouses, manufacturing, logistics, and cold storage. Both models combine a 4.3-inch WVGA touchscreen with numeric or functional keyboard and pistol grip for ergonomic use with heavy gloves. The Qualcomm 4490 octa-core 2.4 GHz processor offers 2.5x more performance than the MC9300, with 6 GB RAM, 128 GB flash, and microSD up to 2 TB for smooth multitasking with voice, legacy, AR, and AI apps.
The MC9400 focuses on Wi-Fi 6E (tri-band up to 2402 Mbps) for reliable indoor networks, while the MC9450 adds 5G WWAN (data only) for outdoor and hybrid connectivity. Advanced scan engines like SE58 Extended Range with IntelliFocus (up to tens of meters) and SE4770 provide fast 1D/2D barcode scanning. With 16 MP rear and 8 MP front cameras, PTT audio, and FIPS 140-2 security, they are versatile. Upgradable to Android 17 via Zebra LifeGuard maximizes lifespan. The Zebra MC9400 and MC9450 are supplied by Codipack as partner solutions within the portfolio for mobile data and labeling applications.
