In a significant technological advancement, Queclink Wireless Solutions has unveiled a solar-powered asset tracker specifically geared towards enhancing security in cross-border road and intermodal freight transport. This device promises unprecedented autonomy, capable of functioning for up to a decade without needing manual recharge, marking a watershed moment in asset tracking solutions.
Tailored for non-powered trailers and containers, the asset tracker provides adjustable reporting intervals, allowing users to modulate the frequency of location updates to suit specific trip requirements. This feature ensures an optimal balance between tracking accuracy and battery usage, accommodating the dynamic nature of freight journeys. A built-in motion sensor further bolsters efficiency by detecting changes in transport mode, such as transitions from truck to ship, and automatically altering reporting settings to conserve energy.
The asset tracker’s robust design, encased in an IP67-rated waterproof casing and compliant with CE and ATEX standards, guarantees its durability even in the harshest conditions, making it suitable for hazardous environments. Moreover, its flat and streamlined shape facilitates easy attachment to trailers and containers using screws or magnets, effectively minimising installation costs.
Security is further heightened by a rear light sensor that detects any unauthorised removal or tampering, alerting users to potential theft risks. Equipped with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) functionalities and acting as an efficient Bluetooth gateway, the device seamlessly integrates with a range of Bluetooth accessories, enhancing its versatility.
Wi-Fi capabilities allow the device to identify pre-approved networks, thereby switching to a power-saving mode when secure connections are detected. Additionally, users can establish geo-fences to define safe zones, providing greater control over trailer and container management. Vernon Bonser, UK sales director at Queclink Wireless Solutions, remarked, “The solar-powered asset tracker optimises the management of trailers and containers, providing valuable insights into utilisation, productivity and security.”
This innovative solar-powered tracker is poised to transform the landscape of cargo transport, offering comprehensive solutions for modern freight challenges.
