ET401 Enterprise Tablets

More rugged, with a 25% longer lifecycle

More robust dust and water protection

With the enhanced IP68 sealing rating, your ET401 tablets are completely protected against dust and submersion in water. Use them in the rain, accidentally drop them in a puddle, and even spray with a hose to clean them, no problem.

Designed for extreme temperature swings

Rapid temperature changes can be tough on a tablet’s sensitive electronics. But with thermal shock testing and a wide operating temperature range, the ET401 tablets can easily go from subzero cold to sweltering heat—and back.

Advanced display protection

The display is one of the most crucial and vulnerable features. Gorilla Glass 5 offers advanced scratch-and-shatter protection. And water droplet rejection and a fingerprint resistant coating keep the display clear and easy to read, without constant cleaning.

Unsurpassed eight year life expectancy

The ET401 tablets are built from the ground up to last for years. Unlike many devices, they’re available for sale for four years, eliminating the cost and complexity of mixed model deployments. And with service extended for an additional four years, you get up to eight total years of service and support.

Smarter, with built-in AI intelligence

An advanced processor with next generation mobile technologies

The Qualcomm® Dragonwing™ Q-6690 processor enables embedded AI-enhanced features and supports modern, cloud-based AI applications, the fastest wireless connections, on chip RFID¹ and more. Three generations newer than the SM6375 in the ET40/ET45, this processor offers a 42%+ performance boost2, with support through 2034.³

Cutting-edge touchscreen technology for easy data entry

The AI-enabled touchscreen and advanced sensing technology redefine touch accuracy, flexibility and response time. Experience seamless data entry with a bare or gloved finger, or a conductive stylus—without needing to choose or change touch mode settings.

No matter how you enter data, you get the same pinpoint accuracy and instant response, even in heavy rain. And the bright 600 nits display is easy to see indoors and outside.

Advanced AI-audio takes voice clarity to the next level

AI eliminates acoustic echoes and suppresses more background noises, delivering higher quality, clear voice—even in environments that challenge traditional noise suppression technologies.

More ways to capture more data

New integrated short range RFID option

The Dragonwing Q-6690 is the world’s first enterprise mobile processor with fully integrated RFID capabilities, able to read 90 RFID tags per second up to 4 ft. (1.2 m) away—opening the door to many new contactless use cases. In seconds, retail associates can take inventory on store shelves and technicians can ensure the right tools and parts are loaded on their trucks—without the need to purchase and manage separate RFID readers.

New ultra-wide angle rear camera option

This 13 MP camera option paves the way for new vision applications that require a wider view. Car rental agencies can document the condition of a whole car, and retailers can capture an entire shelf section for merchandising—with just a few clicks.

Choose an optional integrated scanner to meet your needs

Use the SE4100 for low to moderate intensity standard range barcode scanning. The SR500 captures barcodes in all lighting conditions, including bright sunlight, and offers a longer scanning range and a first-of-its-kind yellow LED aimer with red illumination for greater contrast and easier, more accurate aiming. And the ability to capture images, documents and OCR/text is ideal for proof of delivery and more.

Keep your devices safe with multiple layers of security

Protect your device against physical hardware attacks

Secure Element and Android Strongbox provide the best physical security available on a mobile device and prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data. Plus, select models feature an embedded HID® security chip, allowing secure card or badge access to the ET401 and protected applications.

Prevent cyber attacks with a lifetime security guard

LifeGuard™ for Android™ ⁴ provides the timely OS updates you need to stay on top of emerging security threats. You choose when to update, making it easy to validate that your apps work before you update. And you choose how users update—over Wi-Fi or cellular networks or when devices are cradled and not in use.

Give your workers easy and secure device access

With Identity Guardian⁵, workers can simply position their face in front of the screen to log on—and with Single Sign On (SSO) compatibility, there’s no more entering credentials to log in and out of applications throughout the day.

Easily find missing devices—even if they are powered off

Do you know where your devices are? With Device Guardian⁵, you will, making it easy to find and recover lost or misplaced devices.

All the fastest wireless networks

Unmatched wireless performance with Wi-Fi 7, 5G and Bluetooth 6

Wi-Fi 7 delivers more than double the speed of Wi-Fi 6, double the bandwidth and multi-band communications, supporting more devices and more traffic. Optional 5G 2nd Gen Release 17⁶ provides the fastest cellular speeds, plus private 5G network support—ideal for large areas where Wi-Fi may be too complex and costly to deploy. Bluetooth 6.0 delivers low-power connections and precise positioning accuracy to automatically connect and disconnect peripherals.

Maximize tablet value and workforce productivity

A complete accessory family with backwards compatibility

Upgrading from the ET40/ET45 to the advanced capabilities of the ET401 is seamless. Just swap devices—nearly all of your existing ET40/ET45 accessories work with the ET401.

Battery-free operation

Use an external power source for ET401 tablets that are permanently installed in vehicles, kiosks or workstations, eliminating the need for a battery—and related technical issues such as battery swelling. And capital and operational costs are reduced since there’s no need to purchase and maintain batteries.

Everything is easier with Zebra DNA™

Easily set up, secure, manage and optimize your ET401 tablets to maximize device performance with Zebra DNA, the industry’s only software suite that simplifies every stage of the mobile device lifecycle. And give your tablets new capabilities with proven Zebra solutions, such as Workstation Connect⁵, Zebra Pay⁵, Workcloud Sync⁵ and Zebra Guardian⁵.
