MC55A0 and MC55N0 End of Life

zebra mc55a mediumThe inability to get required hardware components from the suppliers somewhat caught Zebra and found it unprepared to supply all configurations of the MC55 mobile terminals. They announced termination of the MC55A0 devices no later than August 31, 2017 (or perhaps earlier when stocks are exhausted) and MC55N0 no later than June 30, 2017. The MC55XL (Extended Life) replacement is promised as early as September to October 2017. The new MC55XL will have a similar architecture to MC67, Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5, 2D SE4710 scan engine and more memory. It will be offered in standard and medical versions and the accessories will be compatible with MC55A0 and MC55N0.
