Quake Global, which manufactures satellite modems for the trucking and heavy equipment industries, has announced that Volvo Trucks North America will install Quake Global's Q2000+ satellite communicator as standard equipment
in all Volvo trucks manufactured with U.S. ’07 engines.
The Q2000+ is an integral component in "Volvo Link Sentry," Volvo's proprietary two-way satellite communications system.
"We are delighted that Volvo Trucks North America has chosen to integrate Quake's Q2000+ satellite modem into its state of the art 'Volvo Link Sentry' communications system," said Polina Braunstein, President and CEO of Quake Global.
Quake Global's Q2000+ and the Volvo Link Sentry have been standard equipment since late-2005 on the Volvo VT 880 and VT 830 tractors, with widespread customer acceptance. Volvo Link Sentry is a remote vehicle and driver performance monitoring system that gives Volvo customers 24/7 access to technical support, while providing fleet managers with a wealth of information about truck operations.
