The G120 Cellular and Satellite GPS Tracker is a compact 4G LTE Cat-M1 network GPS tracker with multiple inputs and outputs to cater to the most demanding applications. The G120's best features are its Bluetooth® gateway for managing tagged assets and sensors and its ability to accept an Iridium Edge module for tracking vehicles via satellite and keeping an eye on safety from afar.
This allows for the most flexible expansion options in the industry. All the functionality is exposed through a 24-wire connector, allowing for quick and simple installations. The internal backup battery provides alerts and tracking operations even when external power is removed. It uses offline satellite-aided technology for faster acquisition and more accurate and reliable tracking in locations where other devices give up.
The G120 is now equipped with a Bluetooth v5.2 module, enabling it to act as a Bluetooth Gateway
Different applications include:
Connect the G120 GPS vehicle tracker to an optional Iridium satellite module, enabling a plug-and-play option for accurate out-of-coverage tracking. When in coverage, the G120 will use cellular data, but if it leaves coverage, it will fail over and upload records via the Iridium network less frequently. Complete records are logged and saved to the device's flash memory, and when it returns to coverage, all will be uploaded, giving accurate, turn-by-turn trip replays and reporting. Maximise your operational efficiency with real-time status and location information.
Connect the G120 with duress pendants or receivers through digital inputs. Receivers can connect to the device's digital inputs, which, when activated, can trigger SOS alerts, making the G120 a powerful lone and remote worker solution. Ideally suited for remote assets. Ensuring remote workers are safe so far from communication
The G120 uses Telstra coverage when in range. There is an Iridium satellite module available for regional Australia.
By creating geofences around worksites, admin users can be alerted when workers might be at risk. Reporting worker movements through geofences also helps drive productivity through customised progress reporting through geographical areas.
The G120 + Iridium satellite modem is ideal for remote fleet tracking with reports for WHS security, tracking, geofencing, driver ID, and accelerometer data.
In an accident, in-vehicle duress buttons and external man-down pendants can be activated, allowing swift support responses, such as informing search and rescue. Accident detection systems or black box data can provide GPS and accelerometer data details for a two-hour window.
Set up scheduled maintenance alerts based on vehicle usage, such as ignition and movement detection, time and distance travelled, idle times, and more, to reduce fleet maintenance, repair costs, and vehicle and equipment downtime.
Integrating Iridium Edge with a vehicle's GPS tracker offers an excellent fleet management, telematics, and safety solution. The Iridium Edge provides a complete iridium-connected solution.
An optional panic button activates the Iridium Edge, which sends an SOS and precise coordinates to emergency responders, saving valuable time. Fast time-to-market is critical in today's evolving asset tracking and fleet management environment. Iridium Edge features an all-in-one Short Burst Data (SBD) module, antenna, and power supply. The G120 Satellite GPS tracker is a plug-and-play satellite IoT device that can pair with existing satellite and cellular solutions without complicated integration or development requirements.
