The Solar Animal GPS Tracker T0500 is a Plaspy compatible GPS tracker purpose-built for long-term livestock and large-animal monitoring. Rugged, solar-assisted and IPX7 waterproof, the T0500 delivers reliable real-time tracking and telemetry for cows, sheep, horses and camels. Its large internal rechargeable battery plus built-in solar panels reduce maintenance cycles and keep devices active across extended outdoor deployments.
Designed for simple collar mounting with a secure locking mechanism and collar-cut alerts, the T0500 pairs directly with Plaspy to provide immediate notification, history route playback and precise positioning via GPS and LBS. The T0500’s field-proven hardware and Plaspy compatibility make it an easy choice for pasture management, anti-theft response and distributed animal monitoring at scale.
Key Highlights
- Solar-assisted power with a 5000 mAh Li‑Po rechargeable battery for long deployment between maintenance checks.
- Plaspy compatible real-time tracking and telemetry: GPRS location updates, history route playback, and app/web/SMS access.
- Rugged IPX7 waterproof rating suitable for harsh outdoor and immersion conditions.
- Secure collar mounting with tamper/collar-cut alerts to support anti-theft and rapid response workflows.
- Integrated GPS+BDS positioning (U‑BLOX module) with position accuracy ≥ 5 m and fast TTFF performance.
- Internal GPS/GSM antennas and GPRS Class 12 for reliable communications in remote grazing areas.
- Built-in vibration/motion sensor and power-saving management to extend operational life and provide motion alerts.
- Optional 3G variant available for improved network compatibility in regions moving beyond 2G.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the T0500 streams location and telemetry data over GPRS to Plaspy’s cloud, enabling live monitoring, geo-fence alerts, and historical route playback. Plaspy processes the T0500’s GPS and LBS positioning, motion and tamper alerts, and low battery notifications so managers can act in real time from the mobile app or web portal.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates sent to Plaspy for live tracking dashboards.
- Collar-cut/tamper alerts delivered immediately to Plaspy for anti-theft response.
- Motion and vibration alerts for abnormal movement or stationary timeout events.
- Low battery and power status notifications to help schedule maintenance visits.
- History route playback and Google Maps links for exact location review and reporting.
- LBS fallback positioning when GPS signals are weak, ensuring continuous coverage.

- Anti-theft monitoring with instant collar-cut alerts routed through Plaspy to support rapid intervention.
- Long-term, low-maintenance deployments in remote pastures where solar recharge minimizes battery swaps.
- Route and behavior analysis via history playback to optimize pasture rotation and grazing patterns.
- Remote monitoring of high-value animals (breeding stock, performance animals) that require reliable telemetry and alerting.
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The T0500 combines rugged, solar-assisted hardware with Plaspy’s real-time tracking and fleet management-capable platform to deliver dependable field performance and low operational overhead. For livestock managers and large-herd operations, the unit’s IPX7 protection, large 5000 mAh battery and secure collar mounting reduce downtime and maintenance costs while delivering accurate position data and tamper alerts through Plaspy.
Because the T0500 is Plaspy compatible, it plugs into existing monitoring workflows and dashboards for telemetry, history playback and alerting. Although primarily tailored to animal tracking, the T0500’s data can complement broader fleet management and telemetry systems—such as fuel monitoring, ignition state or immobilizer control on vehicle-focused deployments—when used alongside other Plaspy-supported devices. The result is a scalable, reliable tracking solution that keeps animals visible, protects assets from theft, and simplifies operational decision-making in the field.
