The Honeywell Xenon XP 1950g is a high-performance corded 2D handheld barcode scanner from Honeywell's Xenon Extreme Performance (XP) series. It reads damaged, poorly printed and low-contrast barcodes as well as codes on phone screens, keeps up with fast-moving items and is backed by a 5-year Honeywell warranty. This version, 1950GHD-2USB-R, uses the High Density (HD) scan engine for small and densely printed codes, has a black housing and is supplied with a 3 m USB cable, ready to plug in and scan.
📦 What's in the box – 1950GHD-2USB-R
- ✅ Honeywell Xenon XP 1950g scanner – High Density (HD), black
- ✅ USB cable – straight, 3 m, Honeywell CBL-500-300-S00
- ❌ Stand – not included
💡 Want hands-free scanning? Add the Honeywell flexible stand STND-22F00-001-6 or the Honeywell rigid stand STND-15R00-000-6 to your order. The scanner switches to hands-free mode automatically when placed in the stand.
Key Features
- High Density (HD) optics – reads small, dense codes down to 3 mil Code 39 and 5 mil Data Matrix, ideal for small labels.
- Reads difficult codes – reads damaged, poorly printed and low-contrast barcodes (down to 15% print contrast), on labels and on phone screens.
- Fast, intuitive scanning – motion tolerance of up to 4 m/s and omnidirectional reading (±360° roll) for quick point-and-shoot use.
- Reads more than barcodes – 1D, PDF417, 2D, Postal, DotCode, Digimarc and OCR (depending on configuration).
- Handheld or hands-free – use it in the hand or place it in an optional stand for presentation scanning.
- Built to last – withstands 50 drops from 1.8 m to concrete and 2,000 tumbles, IP52 sealed, with a 5-year (60-month) Honeywell warranty.
- Easy deployment – USB, RS-232, keyboard wedge or IBM 46xx (RS-485) depending on the cable; works with the cables and stands of the Xenon 1900g series; manage and update scanners with Honeywell Scanner Management Utility (SMU).
Ideal Applications
- Small, high-density labels in electronics, pharmacy and laboratories
- Warehousing, logistics and shipping/receiving
- Government and administration – ID documents, forms and OCR
- General-purpose scanning at desks and workstations

Not sure which version you need? Choose Standard Range (SR) for general retail, logistics and office use, or High Density (HD) for small or densely printed codes. If you already have a compatible Honeywell cable (for example from a Xenon 1900g installation), the scanner-only version is the most economical choice.
