Description

Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE) is a wireless area network that allows people within its range to see its location easily, it can also be employed in the tracking of valuable assets.

The M2 BLE asset tracking beacon utilizes the Bluetooth low energy asset tracking technology. It is can be employed indoors or outdoors to monitor inventory or other important use cases vital to your organization. It is portable and easy to install. You do not need specialized tools to set things up and running. It can be hung, screwed, or attached to a surface with a sticker.

The M2 asset management beacon gives you a range of up to 160 meters (in open spaces without obstacles). You can easily install the BEACONX PRO APP for your iOS or Android devices to connect with the device with ease.

Some applications of BLE asset tracking

Warehouse&Inventory

Helps staff to easily locate items in the warehouse.

Vehicle monitoring

Easily identify and locate vehicles to be shipped to prospective customers.

Proximity security detection

It can inform personnel when they are close to dangerous pieces of equipment.

Health care quipment monitoring

It can help health personnel to quickly locate important equipment and critical machinery in hospitals.

Personal tracking

Beacons can be used to track person and dispatch those who are close to the spot.

Benefits of BLE asset tracking

Bluetooth low energy tracking techniques gives you the following benefits:

Data transfer using a BLE asset tracking device is quick

You get a broader range using a BLE beacon

Signals transmitted by beacons are more secure

BLE devices consume less power

It is cost-effective means of asset tracking

Beacons offer high broadcast capacity

They are easy to install

Beacons are used for indoor and outdoor purposes

They provide real-time geo-locations

How asset beacon works

Bluetooth beacons are similar to Wi-Fi networks – they transmit radio waves within a set range (up to 70 meters). The device repeatedly broadcasts a radio signal, which can be seen by other devices within its range.

The radio signals the beacon transmits are composed of numbers and letters which are transmitted at regular intervals (approximately 1/10th of a second). When a Bluetooth-enabled device, like a smartphone, is in the range of the transmitting device, it can see the beacon.

This is similar to lighthouses that permanently emit visible light which serves as navigational guides for sailors.
