Navman Wireless Expands Construction/Mining Fleet Tracking Coverage with New Satellite Communications

Navman Wireless Expands Construction/Mining Fleet Tracking Coverage with New Satellite Communications Option Page 2- BWWGeeksWorld

Automatically switches between Cell and Iridium Satellite for least cost asset tracking with highest reliability both on road and at remote sites.

Iridium Satellite connectivity is provided via a small modem that plugs into the serial port on Navman Wireless' Qube on-highway and/or ruggedized Qtanium off-highway GPS tracking devices. The system automatically switches between cellular and satellite transmission with intelligent least-cost routing, utilizing the highly reliable, global Iridium satellite network when fleet assets move out of cellular range. Benefits include:
  • Uninterrupted real-time fleet tracking without losing visibility of equipment location and other status information when assets are beyond the reach of cell towers.
  • Increased employee safety because equipment and vehicles are never out of sight of the fleet tracking system, even if they are working in cellular dead zones.
  • No missed engine alerts, potentially preventing costly machine repairs and downtime by ensuring that job supervisors are promptly informed when engine, coolant, transmission or air filter sensors connected to GPS tracking devices exceed pre-defined thresholds.
  • Cost-saving configurability, with the option to limit satellite transmissions to priority events (panic messages, rollover alerts, engine overheating, speed or geofence violations, etc.) and delay the transfer of low-priority event data until cellular coverage is restored.
