Overview

The Zebra ET401EB-301P2B2P-NA is the 10.1-inch ET401 Enterprise Tablet in the Standard configuration for North America. It pairs a 5G Release 17 radio with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0, and adds an integrated SR500 1D/2D scan engine that reads barcodes in all lighting conditions, including bright sunlight. It runs Android with Google Mobile Services on a Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-6690 processor with 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB UFS 3.1 flash. The tablet is IP68 sealed, survives 4 ft drops to concrete, and is built for retail, logistics and warehouse teams that scan all day.

The Zebra ET401 is the successor to Zebra's ET40 and ET45 enterprise tablets. It keeps their thin, light consumer-style design and adds a faster processor, more memory, newer radios and tougher sealing. This SKU, ET401EB-301P2B2P-NA, is the 10.1-inch model in the Standard tier for North America. It ships with a 5G radio, the SR500 integrated scan engine, 8GB RAM, 128GB storage and Android with Google Mobile Services (GMS).

The SR500 is the higher-performance of Zebra's two scan engine options for the ET401. It captures 1D and 2D barcodes in all lighting conditions, including bright sunlight, and reads at a longer range. It uses a yellow LED aimer with red illumination for more accurate aiming. It can also capture images, documents and OCR text, which is useful for proof of delivery. The 600-nit WUXGA display sits under Corning Gorilla Glass 5 and works with a bare finger, a gloved finger or a conductive stylus, even in heavy rain.

For connectivity, the 5G radio is 2nd Gen Release 17 with Sub-6 NSA/SA, carrier aggregation and private cellular band support. It runs alongside tri-band Wi-Fi 7 with MLO, Bluetooth 6.0 and dual-band GNSS. Dual SIM combines one nano SIM with an eSIM. The 7600 mAh battery is user replaceable. For installs in vehicles, kiosks or workstations, the tablet can run with no battery from external power.

Zebra rates the ET401 for an eight-year life: four years on sale plus four more years of service and support. LifeGuard for Android delivers security updates, and Zebra DNA tools handle setup and management. Nearly all ET40/ET45 accessories carry over. The Zebra spec sheet, Product Reference Guide and ET4 Series Accessory Guide are available for this model.
