Frequently Asked Questions

The Zebra TC22R Integrated Handheld RFID Reader is an all-in-one Android mobile computer with built-in UHF RFID, a 1D/2D barcode scanner and NFC in a single lightweight device. Unlike sled-based readers that clip a separate RFID module onto a mobile computer, the TC22R combines both functions in one unit weighing 20.07 oz. (569 g). It is used for inventory cycle counting, item finding and mobile POS in retail and hospitality; product, component and work-in-progress tracking in light manufacturing; asset tracking and document management in government; and loading, inbound and outbound verification in transportation and logistics.

The Zebra TC22R reads up to 1,300 RFID tags per second with a nominal read range of 40 ft. (12.2 m) from its integrated 4 dBi antenna. It supports the EPC Class 1 Gen 2 and EPC Gen 2 V2 standards and uses Zebra proprietary RFID radio technology.

Frequency and power output vary by region: 902–928 MHz at 0–36 dBm EIRP in the US; 865–868 MHz at 0–33 dBm ERP in the EU; and 916–921 MHz with listen-before-talk at 0–36 dBm EIRP in Japan.

The difference is form factor. The TC22R is an integrated reader — the RFID radio, antenna, barcode scanner and Android computer are all one device. A sled, such as the Zebra RFD40 or RFD90, is a separate RFID module that attaches to a mobile computer you already own.

The TC22R suits teams that want a single lightweight device with less fatigue during extended cycle counts and no pairing or adaptor management. A sled suits teams standardized on an existing mobile computer fleet, or those that need the longer read ranges larger external antennas provide.

Yes. The Zebra TC22R is a fully integrated Android-based solution that can be supported by mainstream mobile device management (MDM) platforms, which reduces deployment headaches and management overhead. For the current list of supported Android versions, see www.zebra.com/android-versions.

It runs a 5430 hexa-core 2.1 GHz processor with 6 GB RAM and 64 GB Flash, and connects over Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax, 2x2 MU-MIMO, dual band simultaneous) and Bluetooth 5.2. Security includes WPA3 Personal and WPA3 Enterprise, including 192-bit mode (GCMP256), with EAP-TLS, PEAP and other enterprise authentication methods.

The Zebra TC22R is IP65-sealed against dust and low-pressure water jets, and is specified for multiple 5 ft. (1.5 m) drops to concrete and 500 tumble cycles (1,000 drops from 1.6 ft. / 0.5 m) at room temperature. It withstands ±15 kV air discharge and ±8 kV direct electrostatic discharge.

Its operating temperature range is 14° F to 122° F (-10° C to +50° C) at 5–95% non-condensing humidity, with storage from -40° F to 158° F (-40° C to +70° C). That covers most warehouse, backroom and light manufacturing floors, but not freezer or cold-chain work below 14° F (-10° C).

Yes. Alongside UHF RFID, the Zebra TC22R includes an SE4710 1D/2D scan engine for barcode capture and an integrated NFC reader supporting ISO 14443 Type A and B, MIFARE, FeliCa and ISO 15693 cards, and NFC Forum tags 2, 3, 4 and 5. Host Card Emulation and contactless payment support enable mobile POS and line-busting applications.

The device also has a forward-facing 16 MP camera and a front-facing 5 MP camera, a 6.0 in. Full HD+ (1080 x 2160) 450-nit display with bare or gloved fingertip input, and a user-removable 7,000 mAh PowerPrecision+ battery that reports real-time battery metrics.

The Zebra TC22R delivers an industry-leading read rate of up to 1,300 tags per second, enabling rapid data capture and real-time inventory insights in fast-paced warehouse and logistics environments. This high-speed performance allows your team to process large volumes of assets efficiently without slowing down operations. We offer the TC22R to help you maximize productivity during peak inventory cycles.

Yes, the TC22R is specifically designed for extended all-day use with its lightweight ergonomic construction and all-touch design that minimizes worker fatigue.
