Handheld wired barcode scanner

The Star Micronics BSH-20U is a corded handheld reader built for retail, hospitality and healthcare counters. It connects over a USB cable and draws 5 V DC from the host, so no separate power supply is required. The IP42 rating protects the housing against splashes and dust in busy service environments.

10.24-inch maximum scan distance

A single CMOS imager reads both 1D and 2D symbols from up to 10.24 inches away, letting staff capture codes on labels, screens or wristbands without leaning over the counter. The LED aimer provides visible targeting in normal indoor lighting. Serial interface support is also present for legacy host systems.

USB cable included in the box

The supplied USB cable delivers both data and power, so the scanner is operational immediately after plugging into a PC or terminal. No battery charging or wireless pairing steps are needed, reducing setup time at each workstation. The compact 125-gram body fits comfortably in hand during extended shifts.

Questions about this item

What does the 10.24in scan distance mean for everyday use?

It lets you read a barcode from roughly ten inches away, so you can scan items on a shelf or counter without touching them.

How does the USB cable interface limit the scanner in practice?

The wired USB connection restricts movement to the cable length and supplies power directly, so no charging or batteries are needed.

Will the 5.75in x 4.06in x 2.72in body fit in a standard under-counter mount?

At 125 grams and those dimensions it fits most common retail mounts, but you should compare the bracket spacing to the scanner's footprint before buying.
