Don’t offer your customers half-hearted measures. Instead, introduce them to the new Zebra Enterprise Computer ZEC500 and the KC50 Kiosk System – and sell two devices at once across a wide range of industries. Why? Because the ZEC500 and KC50 are both incredibly versatile and ideally suited for the diverse needs of retail, hospitality, healthcare, warehousing, and manufacturing.
With the ZEC500, Zebra introduces a completely new generation of enterprise computers. It combines the proven advantages of the Android Enterprise platform, which has been powering Zebra handhelds and tablets for years, with unprecedented versatility. The ZEC500 elevates enterprise IT to the next level: a device that may be deployed in virtually any setting – from traditional desktop workstations, digital signage, and self-service kiosks to mobile workstations on wheels or vehicle-mounted systems.
Inside the ZEC500 lies a modern Qualcomm processor with a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU). This combination delivers the computing power needed for demanding applications – including AI capabilities such as voice translation, transcription, or the use of generative assistants. At the same time, support for current and future Android versions provides a sustainable foundation, secured by LifeGuard for Android, Zebra’s promise of security and updates throughout the entire product lifecycle.
The ZEC500 is as flexible as its areas of use:
Another highlight of the ZEC500 is the integration of Wireless Workstation Connect. Employees wirelessly pair their Zebra mobile devices with the ZEC500. They then choose to mirror their content to a larger screen or transform the device into a full desktop workstation – complete with connected peripherals. Best of all, the mobile device’s functions continue to operate normally, ensuring that no call, message, or alert is missed.
Whether in climate-controlled retail stores, drive-through counters, airport terminals, or warehouse halls: the ZEC500 is designed for a variety of environments. The standard version covers a temperature range from 0° to +40 °C, while the extended version operates from -29° to +60 °C. With IP54 protection, it is secured against dust and splashes. Its compact, VESA-compliant design allows for discreet installation – on walls, behind monitors, under counters, or in mobile kiosk systems.
The ZEC500 may be fully configured, monitored, and secured through standard MDM/EMM solutions. This ensures full transparency into system status at all times, enabling issues to be resolved before they cause downtime. Additionally, Identity Guardian ensures that only authorised employees have access.
With guaranteed availability for four years, service options of up to eight years, and robust design, the ZEC500 is not only powerful but also durable and a sustainable investment. Its integration into the proven Zebra DNA toolbox ensures IT teams don’t need to learn new systems. Unified management, free value-add apps, and continuous development make the ZEC500 a true investment in the future.
While the ZEC500 serves as a universal core for a wide range of scenarios, the KC50 brings the advantages of the Zebra platform directly to the point of service. It is purpose-built for self-service, checkout, and display applications, but also proves itself in warehouses with its modern design, robustness, and modularity.
The KC50 comes with either a 15″ or 22″ FHD touch display, features an anti-smudge coating, and a housing protected to IP65 standards. With Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C with DP ALT mode, and optional PoE power supply, it offers outstanding connectivity. When needed, an SE4720 scanner may be integrated via the Z-Flex port.
The KC50’s biggest advantage lies in its modularity: companies can configure more than 1,000 combinations – from displays and scanners to printers, NFC readers, and payment systems, even LED light strips. This allows the kiosk system to be tailored precisely to the needs of retail, hospitality, healthcare, transportation, logistics, and warehousing.
Like all Zebra devices, the KC50 is based on the Android Enterprise platform and leverages Zebra DNA tools. This allows seamless integration into existing systems, real-time monitoring, and centralised management. Its VESA-compatible back enables flexible mounting options – from table stands to wall mounts. It also complies with international ADA and EAA accessibility standards.
The KC50 is built for 24/7 use: shock-resistant displays, robust housing, and long-term update and service options protect the investment. With Zebra OneCare, companies benefit from comprehensive support – including fast repairs, replacement devices, and extended services for battery management and device provisioning.
With the ZEC500 as a versatile enterprise computer and the KC50 as a modular self-service solution, you offer your customers a unique package with incredible flexibility. The ZEC500 provides a highly adaptable foundation for diverse applications, while the KC50 excels as a dedicated self-service kiosk system. Together, the two systems enable not only innovative customer experiences but also lower IT costs, simplified management, and sustainable investment protection.
