Brady HH86 UHF 868 2D Imager LTE EU Scanner

Brady HH86 UHF RFID Reader 868 with 2D Imager and LTE (EU)

The Brady HH86 UHF RFID Reader 868 with 2D Imager and LTE EU is a rugged handheld scanner designed for professional data collection in industrial and logistics environments. This model builds on the proven HH86 series and adds mobile LTE connectivity, enabling real-time data communication without reliance on local networks. The combination of UHF RFID, NFC, HF, and comprehensive barcode scanning makes this device a versatile all-in-one solution for modern identification processes.

Designed for demanding work environments

The HH86 LTE is designed for intensive daily use in challenging conditions. Its ergonomic design supports extended scanning sessions and fits securely in the hand, even when wearing gloves. Thanks to its IP65 rating, the device is protected against dust and water, while its drop resistance up to 1.6 meters provides added safety on the job site. The capacitive HD color touchscreen with Gorilla Glass 3 remains easy to read and is resistant to scratches and impacts.

Excellent RFID and barcode performance

The scanner delivers powerful UHF RFID performance and can read up to 1,200 tags per second. The circularly polarized antenna with 4 dBic gain ensures reliable readability of RFID tags, regardless of their orientation. In addition to RFID, the HH86 supports a very wide range of 1D and 2D barcodes, including QR codes, Data Matrix, PDF417, and GS1 standards. This makes the device suitable for applications such as logistics identification, inspection tags, security identification, and RFID labeling.

LTE connectivity for real-time data streams

The distinguishing feature of this model is its integrated LTE support, supplemented by UMTS and GSM. This allows data to be transmitted directly to backend systems, even in locations without a Wi-Fi infrastructure. This makes the HH86 LTE particularly well-suited for outdoor applications, mobile inspections, and distributed work sites. In addition to mobile networks, the device also supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB for flexible integration.

Powerful software and reusable development

The HH86 LTE runs on Android 13 and is upgradeable to Android 14. Thanks to its powerful octa-core processor, 4 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage, the system runs smoothly, even with complex applications. Key APIs are backward compatible with earlier Brady and Nordic ID models, making it easy to reuse existing software. This reduces development costs and speeds up implementations within existing IT environments.

Suitable for professional workflows

The Brady HH86 LTE integrates seamlessly with Brady SmartID solutions and Nordic ID technology. The device is used in sectors such as logistics, manufacturing, inspection, security, and the food industry. Thanks to its combination of ruggedness, high-performance scanning, and mobile connectivity, this handheld RFID scanner is ideal for organizations that require real-time visibility and maximum flexibility within their identification and tracking processes.
