Mobile communications provider Aether Systems Inc. Owings Mills, Md., announced that Comtrak Logistics Inc., a nationwide truckload and intermodal carrier, has converted its entire fleet to Aether MobileMax
for wireless fleet tracking and messaging. The conversion involves about 550 new MobileMax units.
Comtrak Logistics, based in Memphis, Tenn., provides a range of trucking services, including truckload transportation and container storage depots.
The MobileMax system transmits dispatch and data messages as well as GPS position reports. The system monitors and reports on state-line crossings, vehicle fault codes, proximity alerts and driver performance.
According to Aether, MobileMax is the only solution to use a multi-mode system that automatically switches between land-based and satellite communications without driver or dispatcher intervention.
