FOUNDATION FRAMEWORK
non-steered SIM cards from KPN IoT , a European telecommunications leader , to automatically and securely connect Trackunit devices primarily to LTE-M ( 4G ) networks around the globe without operator intervention . Based on the type of module in the devices , they can also link to 3G and 4G networks and are able to connect to 5G as this capability continues to rolls out .
“ Globally connected solutions are like chains with many links , and they are only as reliable as the weakest link ” said Trackunit ’ s Daniel Conradsen .
Trackunit developed an industry-leading solution that easily connects construction assets , nearly anywhere in the world and gathers machine-specific telematics in real time .
“ There are several interconnections between our solution , KPN IoT ’ s global solution , and Cisco ’ s IoT platform . The ability to automate all of them is highly valuable to us and our customers .”
According to Trackunit , construction companies that connect at least half of their fleet financially outperform companies that do not by 23 %. And companies that connect three-quarters or more of their fleet outperform the others by 51 %.
The automation and simplicity of the solution have been key to the rapid growth of Trackunit ’ s customer base . Furthermore , more than 2.5 million machines and other construction assets are now connected and tracked with the company ’ s solution .
“ We would not be able to meet such a high customer demand without automated connectivity and zero-touch processing ,” said the IoT Operations Team Lead , Conradsen . “ KPN IoT has stripped away complexity and simplified everything for us and our customers .”
