Astra Telematics - AT500
The AT500 Mini Asset Tracker from Astra Telematics is a compact, rechargeable GPS asset tracker designed for discreet long life tracking of small and hard to reach assets. It combines multi constellation GNSS positioning, multi network cellular connectivity with modern low power wide area options and Qi wireless charging in a small IP68 enclosure. Motion aware power management and internal components such as an e SIM and internal antennas make the unit suitable for dense deployments and low touch maintenance.
As a Plaspy compatible device, the AT500 integrates into Plaspy fleet and asset management workflows to provide continuous visibility of location, movement and device health. Its BLE configuration features and simplified provisioning support scalable rollouts, while the device telemetry maps naturally into Plaspy dashboards, alerting rules and reporting for operational oversight of high density asset fleets.
Key Highlights
- Compact form factor ideal for discreet placement on small assets and equipment in dense deployments.
- Rechargeable design with Qi wireless charging and long battery life profiles suited to low power reporting.
- Multi network cellular connectivity including low power wide area options with legacy fallback for broader coverage.
- Multi constellation GNSS for reliable position fixes in varied environments.
- Bluetooth Low Energy for on site configuration, commissioning and diagnostics via smartphone.
- Motion aware power management using an accelerometer to reduce reporting when assets are stationary.
- IP68 rated enclosure and internal backup battery for durable outdoor and industrial use.
How It Works with Plaspy
When used with Plaspy, the AT500 sends location, motion events and device health data into Plaspy s monitoring and reporting environment so teams can track assets, set alerts and analyze utilization. Plaspy consumes the device telemetry to provide real time visibility and historical reporting across mixed fleets and asset types.
- Real time location updates and device health indicators visible in Plaspy dashboards
- Motion based wake and reporting behavior enabling movement alerts and anti theft notifications
- BLE based field configuration and diagnostics to speed provisioning and troubleshooting
- Low power wide area cellular reporting that maintains persistent connectivity for fleet monitoring
- Plaspy friendly provisioning and fleet integration for inclusion in broader tracking and reporting workflows
Typical Use Cases
- Small unpowered asset tracking such as tools, cases and shared equipment where compact size matters
- Equipment sharing and rental programs needing discreet trackers for utilization and loss prevention
- Portable tool protection and anti theft workflows with movement alerts and history for recovery
- High density asset fleets in warehouses or sites where simple commissioning and internal antennas reduce maintenance
- Remote or environmental deployments requiring ingress protection and wireless charging for low touch upkeep
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The AT500 is a practical choice for organizations that need Plaspy compatible tracking for small assets without vehicle grade I O. Its emphasis on compactness, rechargeable operation and multi network connectivity helps reduce maintenance overhead while keeping location and movement data available in Plaspy.
