Digital Matter, a global leader in low-power GPS and IoT hardware development, has developed future-proof tracking solutions, supporting worldwide supply chain visibility and logistics tracking across most of the world’s cellular networks.
Digital Matter’s global GPS tracking devices have successfully connected in 64 countries to date, and directly address the connectivity challenges that enterprises in key regions face when requiring asset visibility across different networks and borders. 4G Cat 1bis emerges as a reliable and comprehensive global connectivity solution, benefiting from established networks and existing roaming agreements.
“Many of our partners require a ‘truly global’ connectivity solution,” says Ken Everett, CEO and Founder of Digital Matter.
“We are excited to offer a solution that addresses these needs, enhancing supply chain and logistics visibility in key regions that previously faced geographic limitations.”
Digital Matter’s global portfolio is designed to support businesses operating in regions where 2G remains prevalent or LTE-M/NB-IoT networks are not consistently available. Enterprises that need to track assets moving in and out of these regions, rely solely on 2G or require global roaming capability, have previously faced significant visibility limitations. The effective deployment of GPS asset tracking in global supply chains allows businesses to optimize routes, reduce idle times, and enhance asset recovery security.
Digital Matter global devices leverage 4G Cat 1bis with 2G fallback, ensuring continuous connectivity and supply chain management. This future-proof solution allows devices perform across borders and to seamlessly migrate to 4G Cat1bis as 2G networks continue to sunset.
Digital Matter’s global portfolio includes the battery-powered Oyster3 Global and Remora3 Global, ultra-rugged and waterproof with a ‘deploy once’ battery life that can last up to 10+ years, reducing the need for frequent battery replacements.
In addition to GPS, the Remora3 Global also features Bluetooth, enabling communication with nearby Bluetooth tags, sensors, and beacons for flexible tagged asset and condition monitoring, including temperature, humidity, impact detection, and more.
Battery-powered devices are crucial for supply chain and logistics operations, which often rely on battery-powered solutions to track non-powered assets such as containers, packaging, and goods in transit.
Digital Matter’s partners can now access new market segments and offer improved supply chain and logistics solutions in key regions once limited by connectivity and device compatibility.
