The GPT48‑X is a long‑standby GPS tracker designed for durable asset tracking and Plaspy compatible deployments. Built around LTE Cat‑M and NB‑IoT connectivity and multi‑GNSS positioning, the GPT48‑X delivers persistent location awareness and low‑maintenance operation for remote or intermittently connected assets. Its rugged IP67 enclosure, strong magnetic mounting, and long battery life make it ideal for fleet management, container monitoring, and anti‑theft applications where real‑time tracking and reliable telemetry are essential.
Designed for seamless integration into the Plaspy platform, the GPT48‑X uses the EELINK protocol and supports remote configuration via platform, mobile app, or SMS. Plaspy‑compatible features such as geofence alerts, tamper detection, and an emergency reporting mode ensure operators receive timely alerts and historical reports without frequent field visits — reducing downtime and lowering total cost of ownership for asset fleets.
Key Highlights
- Ultra‑long standby: 8000 mAh battery with up to five‑year standby in sleep mode for minimal maintenance cycles.
- Low‑power cellular: LTE Cat‑M and NB‑IoT connectivity optimized for long battery life and wide area coverage.
- Multi‑GNSS positioning: GPS, BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, and QZSS for improved accuracy and global coverage.
- Rugged, magnetic mounting: IP67 enclosure with strong magnets for quick, reliable attachment to metal assets.
- Smart wake and tamper detection: vibration wake‑up, light‑sensor tamper alarm, and geofence alerts to detect movement and intrusion.
- Emergency reporting mode: frequent reporting triggered by movement to support anti‑theft and recovery workflows.
- Remote management: OTA firmware upgrades and remote configuration via platform/app/SMS for fast, scalable deployments.
- Plaspy compatible: integrates via the EELINK protocol for straightforward onboarding into Plaspy real‑time tracking and reporting.
How It Works with Plaspy
When paired with Plaspy, the GPT48‑X becomes a low‑maintenance real‑time tracking node that feeds location and telemetry into Plaspy dashboards, alerts, and historical reports. Plaspy ingests the multi‑GNSS positions and device status transmitted over LTE Cat‑M / NB‑IoT and uses the EELINK protocol fields to decode device events, battery levels, and tamper conditions. Rules and schedules in Plaspy can automatically switch devices between normal reporting and emergency reporting modes to conserve battery while ensuring high‑frequency updates when movement is detected.
- Real‑time location and telemetry updates — continuous GNSS fixes and device health reported to Plaspy for live monitoring.
- Vibration, movement, and tamper alerts — light‑sensor tamper alarms and vibration wake‑up trigger Plaspy notifications and geofence checks.
- Geofence alerts and recovery workflows — Plaspy can raise alarms and start recovery procedures when assets exit designated zones.
- Fuel monitoring and ignition data — GPT48‑X does not list built‑in fuel or ignition inputs in the base description; Plaspy can accept these data streams if a specific installation or external sensor integration provides them.
- Remote immobilizer and control — remote immobilization is possible only if an installation includes compatible relay/control interfaces; confirm interface availability for immobilizer workflows.
- Bluetooth sensors and beacons — Bluetooth capability is not specified for the GPT48‑X; Plaspy supports BLE sensors where a tracker or gateway provides that data.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
GPT48‑X with Plaspy compatibility delivers a practical balance of long battery life, robust positioning, and remote manageability — all important for scalable fleet management and asset protection. The 8000 mAh battery and intelligent sleep/emergency modes cut operating costs and extend deployment life, while multi‑GNSS improves location reliability in challenging environments. Rugged IP67 construction and magnetic mounting simplify installation and protect hardware in harsh conditions.
Integration via the EELINK protocol plus OTA firmware and remote configuration means faster rollouts and fewer truck rolls. For organizations that need real‑time tracking, telemetry, and anti‑theft alerts in Plaspy — and that may later add fuel sensors, ignition interfaces, or immobilizer relays — the GPT48‑X is a durable, low‑maintenance option that supports staged integration. Confirm required I/O or BLE sensor needs with your supplier to ensure the exact variant meets telemetry and control requirements.
