Stationary Gateway

The Stationary Gateway is a plug-and-play device that connects to a standard wall outlet and continuously detects nearby Bluetooth sensor activity. Ideal for warehouses, maintenance shops, and equipment yards, it provides automatic visibility into tagged assets and reports their activity to the SmartAsset platform in real time.

Key Features

Plug-and-Play Installation – Simply plug the gateway into a standard wall outlet to begin monitoring nearby Bluetooth sensors. No complex installation required.
Indoor Asset Visibility – Detects Bluetooth sensor activity throughout warehouses, maintenance shops, storage buildings, and equipment yards, providing real-time visibility into tagged assets.
Automatic Sensor Detection – Continuously scans for nearby SmartAsset BLE sensors and automatically reports their presence to the SmartAsset platform.
Improved Inventory Accuracy – Helps verify that equipment and tools are in the expected location, reducing time spent searching for assets.
Real-Time Activity Updates – Provides continuous updates whenever tagged equipment enters, leaves, or remains within the gateway's coverage area.
Expands Tracking Coverage – Deploy multiple gateways throughout your facility to create seamless visibility across larger indoor or outdoor areas.
Works with the SmartAsset Platform – Sensor data is automatically sent to the SmartAsset platform, where users can monitor equipment locations, activity, and inventory from a single dashboard.

iButton Reader & Driver Fob

The iButton Reader & Fob solution is an accessory to provide driver identification and access control within a fleet environment. When paired with compatible vehicle telematics hardware, it allows fleet managers to assign unique iButton IDs to individual drivers and track driver activity, usage, and assignments. This enhances accountability, improves operational safety, and ensures accurate driver reporting across fleet systems.

Key Features:

Track individual driver activity in the fleet management system.
Enable or restrict vehicle access based on recognized iButton credentials.
Associate driver logs with hardware for compliance and reporting modules.

Sensors for tracking light equipment

Sensors provide an efficient, reliable way to capture real-time data from assets, equipment, and environments. They collect information on equipment productivity, movement, and location, then transmit that data wirelessly to the SmartAsset platform via a gateway or satellite network depending on the model.

Key Features:

Range: Up to 80 meters
Operational Temperature Range: –20°C to +60°C ( –4°F to +140°F )
