Rated by teams who run plant, fleet and tools
“Our investment in MapTrack paid off in a big way when a couple of pieces of test equipment, valued at over $142,000 AUD, was stolen during a break-in at an employee's home. Thanks to MapTrack, we were able to give police the exact location of the asset, even guiding them over the phone as they executed the search warrant. This led them directly to the equipment, which was recovered within 48 hours.”

About the BLE 4.0 Beacon
The BLE 4.0 Beacon is the smallest form factor in the MapTrack beacon range, designed for applications where physical size matters, such as employee badge tracking, passenger counting, authentication tokens, and equipment authentication. A supported tracker with Bluetooth can detect up to 100 of these beacons simultaneously (25 in the authorised list), making them ideal for high-density environments. Configurable signal strength and broadcast intervals allow you to balance range against battery life for your specific use case.
