EMS Technologies Inc., Ottawa, Ont. Canada announced that it has partnered with Bulldog Technologies Inc. to provide a cargo security, tracking and messaging application.

Bulldog will incorporate the EMS PDT-100 satellite communications terminal into the Bulldog Road BOSS security system and other cargo security products.
Road BOSS includes a unit that affixes to the locking rod of the trailer. The unit triggers an alarm should anyone tamper with the doors of the trailer. In the event of an alarm, the unit alerts the driver's pager within a range of 1.5 miles. Simultaneously, through the PDT-100 satellite terminal, the system also alerts dispatch. Should the vehicle be stolen, dispatch could follow the location and heading of the vehicle via the PDT-100 on the truck.
The Road BOSS products are now in full production. The initial production run of 250 units will be limited to the company's RB-200 Road BOSS model, a portable external double-attachment unit, designed to secure a container/tractor trailer while in transit. This product is configured for use with the PDT-100 or stand-alone pager.
The PDT-100 provides two-way messaging and operates over the MSV MSAT satellite network, which covers North America, Central America and northern South America.
Bulldog Technologies is based in Richmond, B.C., Canada.
