Purpose-built cable for PowerScan scanners
The Datalogic CAB-465 is a dedicated USB Type A cable designed to connect PowerScan 8300 and 8500 scanners to a host system. It provides the essential data and power link for point-of-sale and logistics workflows. This accessory suits operations that need a reliable replacement or spare cable for these specific scanner models.
Durable construction with straight Type A plug
The cable features a straight USB Type A connector that seats securely in standard ports without protruding awkwardly. A black finish resists visible wear in busy retail or warehouse environments. The 12 ft length gives operators freedom of movement at checkout lanes or scan stations while keeping the cable routed neatly along the counter or mount.
Passive design draws minimal host power
As a passive copper cable, it adds no active electronics that could generate heat or noise. Power consumption is limited to the scanner’s own draw through the USB bus. The straightforward wiring ensures stable communication without driver complexity or additional power requirements.
