FreightWatch Introduces Geo F3 Multi-Function Tracker at CTIA Enterprise & Applications 2011®

AUSTIN, Texas, October 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

FreightWatch Security Net (FSN), a leading provider of embeddable, covert tracking solutions, will introduce its next generation, portable, battery-powered assisted-GPS tracker at the CTIA Enterprise & Applications 2011® show Oct. 11-13, 2011, in San Diego. FSN will be exhibiting at Booth #650 in the M2M Zone™ Pavilion, featuring its complete line of covert tracking solutions.

Highlighting the exhibit is the Geo F3 Multi-Function Covert Tracker, a value-priced, commercial class, location tracking and sensor monitoring device, designed and manufactured by FSN. The Geo F3 incorporates the technology of its predecessor, the Geo F2 Pill Bottle assisted-GPS tracker, by utilizing the Qualcomm QSC6055™ module technology with the additional features of a built-in battery and antenna, on-board sensors to monitor temperature and light intensity plus an integrated vehicle power adapter.

"The Geo F3 combines the best of our covert GPS tracking technology and functionality in a single package at an industry-leading price," said Bill Games, President, FreightWatch Security Net. "The F3 form factor is compact and fits in the smallest FSN tracking case which allows the F3 to operate in impaired environments where most GPS trackers do not. Adding an optional FSN external battery allows the tracker to report for extended periods of time-up to a year in the field."

The Geo F3 is the newest product in the FreightWatch line of covert trackers featuring superior location accuracy and reliable reporting based on Qualcomm gpsOne™ assisted location-position technology. The on-board accelerometer enables the F3 to sense motion which means it's configured to report at different rates while stationary and moving. When combined with motion-controlled device hibernation, the Geo F3 superior battery management enables extended field use between recharges. The Geo F3 also has an on-board vehicle adapter for hardwired applications. Coupled with FSNtracks, the company's web-based tracking and monitoring platform, customers have 24/7 global location and environment status visibility.

"FSN offers a family of portable devices that work in impaired settings," said Games. "Combined with our private labeled 'track and trace' platform with built-in API, the Geo F3 is the choice of resellers, system integrators and corporate customers needing a covert tracking solution that works where standard GPS solutions do not."

The FSN Geo F3 is available for direct customer and reseller orders. Contact FSN for integration details, pricing and lead times.
