1. Is this the same as part number ds8178-sr7u2100sfw?
Answer: Yes, the DS8178-SR7U2100SFW kit comes with the scanner (DS8178-SR0F007ZZWW), USB cable (CBA-U21-S07ZBR), and cradle (CR8178-SC100F4WW).
2. Is this considered a long range scanner? I'm looking for something that could scan 4 to 8'. I know it depends on how large the barcode is.
Answer: The DS8187 was designed to be a high performance retail-rugged scanner. It will scan 100% UPC (think UPC from a can of Coke) from up to 36". It is not a long range scanner, nor was it designed for warehouse use. Scan range is a linear function of symbology size... as a general rule, the bigger the barcode, the farther away you will be able to scan. see less
