Navman Wireless has enhanced its Qube GPS unit with advanced tamper detection, eight-day backup battery, built-in motion sensor and related alerts.
The company released its Qube 3, an upgrade to the GPS vehicle tracking device that is a core component of the company's OnlineAVL2 fleet tracking system.

The Qube transmits real-time vehicle location and activity information to Navman Wireless' OnlineAVL2 software over the cellular network for in-depth reporting that helps managers lower fleet operating costs, reduce fuel consumption and increase productivity.

The new version includes a tamper-resistant cover that protects all connections and thwarts employee efforts to disable the GPS signal in order to hide unauthorized vehicle use. If the cover is meddled with, the system detects the interference and automatically sends real-time e-mail or text alerts to designated personnel.

A new eight-day backup battery allows for continued GPS tracking even if a thief cuts the wires that connect the Qube to the vehicle. The new battery is built into the Qube device to prevent removal.

In addtion, a built-in motion sensor detects and alerts dispatchers or other personnel to off-hours vehicle movement.

Like the earlier model, the new Qube also records vehicle speed, mileage, ignition on/off, entry and exit to geofenced areas, and other critical data. It stores up to 100 geofences and 1,600 standard events, and has an operating range of minus 20 degrees Celsius to 70 degrees Celsius.

"Our Qube tracking device has proved to be the most reliable unit in its class with a failure rate of less than 0.6 percent compared to 10, 20 and even 30 percent reported for other systems," said Renaat Ver Eecke, vice president and general manager, Navman Wireless North America. "This upgrade retains that same dependable technology to ensure that fleet managers have the data they need to optimize operations, from real-time vehicle location displayed on a single map in our OnlineAVL2 interface to detailed reports that can be used to reduce waste and drive new efficiencies."

The Qube 3 is available on a monthly lease or as a one-time purchase.
