Geotab has announced the availability of its GO9 telematics device in Europe. This device is the latest addition to Geotab's fleet management product family and aims to help businesses manage their fleets more effectively, efficiently, and safely. With improved acceleration tracking, more accurate GPS, increased processing power, and support for new vehicles, including hybrids and electric vehicles, the device enables businesses to generate value from their fleet data. The new GO9 retains the compact design and self-configuring capabilities of previous generations to simplify new integrations. Furthermore, the GO9 offers data for new vehicle categories, such as hybrids and electric vehicles.
New features and additional benefits include:
● Enhanced Gyroscope and Accelerometer: With the addition of a gyroscope, the GO9 provides improved data on events such as hard braking, acceleration, and collisions, giving fleet managers the information they need to improve driver safety and minimize unplanned downtime.
● Global Navigation Satellite System Module: With full compatibility with GPS and GLONASS networks, the GO9 provides more accurate location data.
● Over-the-Air Software Upgrades and Updates: OTA updates ensure that the GO9 is always running the latest firmware version. This helps guarantee the device's security and efficiency.
The GO9 device's cryptographic module is FIPS 140-2 validated, a milestone the company achieved for all GO devices earlier this year. FIPS 140-2 validation is the standard reference for cryptographic modules that protect sensitive information in computer and telecommunications systems for use by the U.S. government, the Canadian government, and the military.
