Teltonika Trackers: Intelligent Tracking and Monitoring for Vehicles, Assets, and People
Teltonika trackers are sophisticated tracking devices that provide you with precise information about the location and status of your valuable assets, vehicles, or even vulnerable individuals. They combine modern GNSS technology (like GPS, GLONASS, Galileo) with reliable cellular communication to give you insights and control anytime, almost anywhere – from simple theft protection to complex fleet management and personal safety.
These intelligent devices go far beyond mere position determination. They capture a variety of data, enable interactions, and send automatic notifications for predefined events to maximize security and efficiency.
Advantages at a Glance – Why Teltonika Trackers Convince:
- Precise Real-Time Tracking: Thanks to advanced GNSS receivers, you always know exactly where your assets, vehicles, or people are.
- Versatile Connectivity: Utilization of various cellular networks (2G, 4G, LTE Cat M1, NB-IoT) for reliable data transmission depending on the use case and region.
- Comprehensive Telemetry Data: Collection of vehicle data (CAN bus), digital/analog signals, acceleration values, temperature, humidity, and more, depending on the model and accessories.
- Intelligent Event-Based Alerting: Configurable alerts for geofencing (entering/leaving zones), speeding, engine status, door opening, crash detection, SOS emergency calls, and much more.
- Flexible Energy Options: From hardwired vehicle trackers and Plug & Play OBDII devices to battery-powered asset and personal trackers with long battery life.
- Robust and Compact Design: Many models are designed for use under demanding conditions and offer protection against dust and water (IP ratings).
- Bluetooth® Integration: Connection to external sensors (e.g., temperature beacons), headsets, or for easy configuration.
Technical Highlights Explained Clearly
Teltonika trackers are packed with technology that gives you detailed insights and control:
1. GNSS and Cellular: The Foundation of Precise Tracking
All Teltonika trackers use Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for exact position determination. The collected data is then sent via the cellular network to a server or your smartphone, giving you access to current location information and historical data at any time.
2. More Than Just Location: Sensors, Interfaces & Bluetooth®
Many vehicle trackers read data directly from the vehicle's CAN bus or have digital and analog inputs/outputs for monitoring (e.g., ignition, fuel level) and control (e.g., immobilizer). Integrated accelerometers detect driving behavior, accidents, or tampering. Bluetooth® allows for the connection of wireless sensors or configuration via smartphone.
3. Intelligent Alert Functions: Proactive Security and Control
Define individual rules and alerts. Receive notifications when a vehicle leaves a predefined zone (geofencing), a speed limit is exceeded, an accident is detected, or a person presses the SOS button. These proactive messages enable quick action.
4. Customized Power Supply for Every Purpose
Vehicle trackers are connected directly to the vehicle battery. For monitoring assets without their own power source, there are trackers with long-life batteries that can transmit for months or even years thanks to energy-saving technologies like LTE Cat M1 or NB-IoT. Personal trackers offer compact, rechargeable batteries.
5. Flexible Configuration and Platform Integration
Teltonika trackers can be easily configured via SMS, the Teltonika Configurator (via USB or Bluetooth®), or the FOTA WEB platform (Firmware Over-the-Air). They are compatible with a variety of tracking platforms and telematics software solutions, allowing you to choose the solution that suits you best.
Application Examples – Where Teltonika Trackers Shine:
- Vehicle Tracking & Fleet Management: Theft protection, route optimization, logbook, driver behavior monitoring, fuel management, cold chain monitoring.
- Asset Tracking: Tracking of containers, trailers, construction machinery, tools, rental equipment, and other valuable mobile assets.
- Personal Tracking: Lone worker protection (Man-Down-Detection, SOS button), care for seniors or children, safety during outdoor activities.
- Special Applications: Monitoring of boats, motorcycles, e-bikes; agriculture; waste management.
Which Teltonika Tracker is Right for Me?
The selection of the optimal tracker depends on your specific use case:
- What is being tracked? A vehicle, a valuable asset, a person?
- Power Supply: Is a hardwired connection possible, or is a battery solution needed? How long does the battery need to last?
- Required Functions: Is pure tracking sufficient, or are additional data (sensors, CAN bus), alerts, or control options (I/Os) required?
- Environmental Conditions: Does the tracker need to be waterproof or particularly robust?
- Connectivity: What cellular coverage is available at the deployment site (2G, 4G, LPWA)?
- Software Integration: Which tracking platform do you want to use?
