Chainway - C66E (UHF)

Large-screen Android handheld with built-in UHF

The Chainway C66 UHF Built-in Handheld Computer delivers a fully integrated UHF RAIN RFID reader and a professional 2D barcode scanner in a single rugged Android 13 terminal. Built for warehousing, logistics, manufacturing and retail operations, the device is the right pick whenever mixed workflows of UHF tags and barcode labels need to be captured efficiently throughout an entire shift. Customers who order the Chainway C66 UHF at IDCRAFT typically replace a two-device setup – mobile computer plus sled – with one streamlined, easy-to-roll-out handheld.

Internally, the C66 runs on a 2.0 GHz octa-core processor with 4 GB RAM and 64 GB Flash storage. The integrated UHF engine is based on the Impinj E510 platform and reaches read ranges of up to 2.7 m on common UHF transponders, with output power adjustable from +5 dBm to +30 dBm. Supported protocols include EPC C1 Gen2 and ISO/IEC 18000-6C – the foundation of every RAIN RFID rollout. Operating frequencies cover 865–868 MHz, 902–928 MHz and 920–925 MHz, making the device suitable for multi-region deployments.

The 5.5-inch IPS HD display (1,440 × 720) renders pick lists, inventory dashboards and ERP screens with ease, and remains responsive when used with gloves or wet hands. Combined with the user-replaceable 5,200 mAh Li-Ion battery and optional QC3.0 fast charging, the C66 sustains long shifts without interruption – a clear advantage in multi-shift logistics and 24/7 distribution centers.

The following part numbers are available in the IDCRAFT online shop – each variant is designed for a specific use case:

• C66E-2CM-U5EN-CC8R4A13 – Chainway C66 with built-in UHF (short range), Honeywell CM60 2D imager, Android 13, 5.5" HD display, 4 GB RAM / 64 GB Flash, 5,200 mAh battery and IP65. A cost-effective configuration for retail logistics, parcel handling and store operations where a reliable 2D scanner with solid near-field reading performance is needed.
• C66E-2SE-U5EN-CC8R4A13 – Same base configuration (Android 13, 4 GB / 64 GB, IP65, 5,200 mAh, UHF short range) equipped with the proven Zebra SE4710 2D scan engine. The preferred choice for industrial environments that require high-speed barcode capture, wide depth of field and the reliability of a premium Zebra imager.

Both variants are housed in a rugged industrial enclosure rated IP65, certified for 1.8 m drops to concrete and 1,000 tumbles.

The Chainway C66 UHF Built-in is built as a long-term workhorse for organizations that want one device covering RFID, barcode and general mobile data capture. Because the UHF antenna is housed inside the terminal, there is no sled to attach, no extra charging cradle and no second SKU to manage – which significantly simplifies device provisioning and lifecycle handling. Android Enterprise Recommended, GMS, FOTA updates and full support for SOTI MobiControl and SafeUEM ensure that the C66 fits into existing MDM environments without friction.

Connectivity covers Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax-ready), Bluetooth 5.1, 4G LTE and GNSS with GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo. WPA3-Enterprise alongside WEP and WPA2 encryption brings the C66 up to modern enterprise security standards. USB Type-C, USB 3.1 OTG and the dedicated thimble interface allow flexible peripheral connections at the workstation and at the charging cradle.
