SPOT Trace is a compact satellite asset tracker designed to help you keep tabs on valuable equipment, vehicles and other assets when cellular coverage is limited or unavailable.
Unlike many conventional GPS trackers that rely on mobile networks, SPOT Trace uses the Globalstar satellite network to transmit location and movement information. That makes it particularly useful for assets that may be stored, transported or operated in remote areas, offshore locations or places where cell service is unreliable.
Attach it to a vehicle, trailer, boat, ATV, construction asset or other valuable equipment, and SPOT Trace can quietly monitor its location in the background. If the asset moves unexpectedly, the device can send an alert so you can respond quickly.
SPOT Trace is ideal for anyone who needs a simple way to monitor valuable assets without relying on local cellular infrastructure.
Typical uses include vehicle and fleet tracking, boats and marine equipment, trailers and caravans, ATVs, construction machinery, plant equipment and remote or unattended assets.
For businesses, it can provide an extra layer of visibility over equipment that regularly moves between sites. For individual owners, it offers a practical way to keep track of high-value assets that may be left unattended for long periods.
Satellite asset tracking – Uses the Globalstar satellite network rather than relying solely on cellular coverage.
Movement and theft alerts – Receive notifications when unexpected movement is detected.
Flexible tracking intervals – Location updates can be configured at 2.5, 5, 10, 30 or 60-minute intervals, depending on your service plan.
SPOT Mapping platform – View location information through SPOT’s online mapping service.
Low battery and power alerts – Helps you keep track of device status and know when attention is required.
Long battery life – Can provide up to 18 months of battery life depending on tracking frequency and usage.
External power option – Can be powered via 5V Micro USB for longer-term installations.
Compact and discreet design – Small enough to mount or conceal on a wide range of assets.
IPX7 water resistance – Built to cope with outdoor and exposed environments.
Wide operating temperature range – Designed to operate from -30°C to +60°C.
Once configured, SPOT Trace automatically reports its location at your chosen interval. You can monitor the asset remotely and receive alerts if movement is detected or the device reports a low battery condition.
There is no need to interact with it every day. SPOT Trace is designed to be installed on an asset and left to do its job in the background, making it a strong choice for remote monitoring and anti-theft applications.
SPOT Trace is a dedicated asset-tracking device rather than a personal satellite communicator. It does not provide two-way messaging or SOS functionality. Alerts are delivered through supported notification methods, and an active satellite service subscription is required.
If your priority is simple, reliable satellite tracking for vehicles, trailers, boats, equipment or other valuable assets, SPOT Trace offers an easy-to-manage solution that keeps working well beyond normal mobile coverage.
