AutoGuard & Insurance GmbH has chosen Telit, the global leader in M2M solutions to power its vehicle protection and monitoring products. Telit’s GE864 module was chosen out of numerous options evaluated by Poland’s market leader.
”AutoGuard’s customers demand the best solutions to ensure their property is safe and secure,” said Dominikus Hierl, President Telit Wireless Solutions. “AutoGuard is an important partner for us as we continue to expand in Poland and Eastern Europe and we are proud to have been chosen by them.”
GE864 Module – A Natural Choice
Under the terms of the partnership, Telit’s GE864 M2M module will be integrated in AutoGuard’s S4, S2, S3A and S3L devices, as well as in its Personal Localizer.
- AutoGuard S4 is designed to protect vehicles against theft and perform vehicle management functions. It is a small and economic tool with a wide range of functionalities.
- AutoGuard S2 provides active vehicle protection and management. It combines various outstanding functionalities such as the reception of signals from 24 GPS satellites, a GSM mobile phone network and 24/7 surveillance through a control center.
- The latest device – AutoGuard S3 – was designed in two versions: AutoGuard S3A and AutoGuard S3L. Both solutions allow vehicles to be monitored using the GSM network and located via GPS. There are, however, a few differences between the functionalities of the two devices. AutoGuard S3A is primarily designed to perform a car alarm function, whereas AutoGuard S3L is a logistics device that offers an extended feature set in comparison to AutoGuard S4.
- The Personal Localizer is a portable device. Just like a mobile phone, it is equipped with a highly sensitive GPS receiver and features an integrated antenna, a GSM modem and a Bluetooth interface.
“AutoGuard has been looking for a leading M2M partner to ensure we can continue and deliver innovative solutions to our customers,” said Robert Rozeslaniec, President AutoGuard & Insurance GmbH. “Telit’s ability to respond quickly to our stringent demands means that we can introduce our solutions to the market faster and with less complexity than our competitors. In the end, it became clear that Telit was the only vendor who could deliver the combination of cutting-edge innovation and a commitment to our success.”
An Ideal Fit
The Telit GE864 module is ideally suited to AutoGuard applications. The advantages of the quadband GSM/GPRS module – currently the world’s smallest – are numerous. Due to its external dimensions of just 30 x 30 x 2.8 millimeters and its weight of seven grams it is especially suitable for applications that require a very compact form. The GE864 is also ideal for applications with large volumes such as those for automotive and fleet management – the reason being the module’s innovative BGA assembly concept.
