Passenger and Commercial | In the passenger and commercial sectors, the Bosch Asset Tracker provides an advanced “ghost car tracking system” designed for stealth and resilience. This system is engineered to be undetectable by scanners and resistant to jamming attempts, ensuring reliable functionality even under attempts to disable it. The device remains in a dormant state to conserve battery and avoid detection until it is activated remotely through the Ghost application. This feature is particularly valuable for anti-theft and security purposes in both private and commercial vehicles, offering an extra layer of protection that remains hidden from potential thieves or unauthorized entities.

Agriculture | In the agricultural sector, the Bosch Asset Tracker provides essential services to enhance the management and security of farm assets. It facilitates the tracking of farm equipment, helping to monitor the location and usage of machinery such as tractors and harvesters, thus optimizing operational efficiency and preventing theft. The tracker can also be used for seed tracking, ensuring that planting materials are accounted for and managed properly. Livestock tracking is another critical application, allowing farmers to monitor the movement and health of animals. Additionally, the tracker can be used to keep tabs on feed supplies, ensuring that there are no discrepancies in storage or usage. For vehicles, such as light duty vehicles (LDVs) used on the farm, the tracker helps in monitoring their use and ensuring they are used within designated farm areas, enhancing overall farm management and security.

The tracker is also instrumental in shipment tracking, ensuring that goods are tracked from the point of departure to delivery, providing transparency and accountability throughout the transport process. Moreover, it supports shipment geofencing, a feature that alerts operators if shipments deviate from their intended route or enter unauthorized areas. This capability is essential for enhancing security and operational efficiency, reducing risks associated with misrouted or lost shipments.

Technical specifications: Robust and reliable asset tracking technology

The Bosch Asset Tracker is engineered for durability and performance in demanding environments. From its rugged IP65-rated casing to its flexible connectivity options and long-lasting battery, the tracker is designed to provide reliable, uninterrupted tracking data, no matter the conditions. Its compact design ensures easy placement and discreet operation.

Operating temperature

The Bosch Asset Tracker is designed to withstand a wide range of environmental conditions, with an operating temperature specification of -20 to 45 degrees Celsius. This allows the tracker to function optimally in both extremely cold and moderately hot climates, ensuring reliable performance and durability. Whether used in frosty conditions or under the heat of the sun, the device maintains its tracking accuracy and connectivity, making it an ideal choice for monitoring assets in varying geographical and climatic conditions.

IP65 certified

The Bosch Asset Tracker’s IP65 certification signifies its high level of protection against environmental elements. This certification indicates that the device is completely dust-tight, preventing any harmful ingress of dust or particulate matter that could potentially impair its functionality. Additionally, it is protected against low-pressure jets of water from any direction, ensuring that it can withstand rain, splashing, and direct hose sprays without suffering damage. This robust level of protection makes the tracker particularly suitable for outdoor and industrial applications, where exposure to such elements is frequent, thus enhancing its reliability and longevity in harsh working conditions.

Rechargeable via USB cable

The Asset Tracker features a convenient USB cable rechargeability, providing a practical and user-friendly method for maintaining power.
