DCT - Syrus Asset Tracker

The Syrus Asset Tracker is a rugged, waterproof GPS tracker built for long-term monitoring of non-powered and exposed assets. Designed for harsh outdoor environments, this Plaspy compatible device delivers dependable, low-maintenance location reporting for containers, trailers, construction equipment, and other off-grid assets where exceptionally long battery life and secure cellular reporting are essential.

Available in 3G and 4G variants (3G Item #1204-07 — discontinued; 4G Item #S4GBW-3000; 4G Temp Tracker Item #S4GTEMP-3000), the Syrus Asset Tracker integrates with Plaspy to provide real-time tracking, configurable telemetry cadence and motion-based unauthorized movement alerts. Its compact, weatherproof enclosure and flexible mounting options make it an ideal GPS tracker for fleet management and industrial IoT deployments that require minimal intervention and reliable, long autonomy.

Key Highlights

• Plaspy compatible GPS tracker optimized for long-term asset monitoring and fleet management integration.
• Rugged, waterproof enclosure and versatile mounting options for exposed outdoor use.
• Multiple cellular variants — 3G (discontinued) and 4G models — to match deployment requirements.
• Extremely long battery life with over-the-air reporting mode switching to balance battery and tracking granularity.
• Built-in motion sensing (accelerometer) for immediate Unauthorized Movement alerts and event-driven reporting.
• Rapid Place ’n Trace setup to begin reporting as soon as the unit is installed on an asset.
• Optional temperature-capable model (4G Temp Tracker) for asset condition monitoring in transit or storage.

How It Works with Plaspy

When paired with Plaspy, the Syrus Asset Tracker becomes a straightforward, low-maintenance source of location and motion telemetry. The device sends GPS positions and motion events over cellular networks to Plaspy, where operators can view live locations, configure alerts, and run historical reports. Remote management from Plaspy allows switching between infrequent “locate” intervals and frequent “track” intervals to preserve battery life while retaining access to real-time tracking when needed.

• Real-time location and motion telemetry updates sent to Plaspy for mapping and reporting.
• Unauthorized Movement alerts (accelerometer-based) trigger immediate notifications and location snapshots.
• Over-the-air mode switching lets operators toggle between low-power locate mode and high-frequency track mode via Plaspy.
• Place ’n Trace setup enables fast provisioning so assets appear in Plaspy as soon as the unit is installed.
• 4G Temp Tracker variant provides temperature data for inclusion in Plaspy asset condition monitoring (where applicable).

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Long-term tracking of trailers, containers and mobile equipment where no vehicle power is available.
• Construction and rental fleet asset management — locate and recover assets quickly with low-maintenance devices.
• Intermodal and yard management for high-value cargo and shipping containers in outdoor environments.
• Temperature-sensitive asset monitoring with the 4G Temp Tracker variant for cold chain adjuncts or equipment stores.
• Industrial IoT deployments that require reliable, battery-powered telemetry and event-driven alarms for unauthorized movement.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy

The Syrus Asset Tracker is a purpose-built Plaspy compatible GPS tracker for organizations that need dependable, long-life monitoring of non-powered assets. Its waterproof, rugged design and flexible mounting options make it suitable for outdoor fleet management and industrial environments where maintenance visits must be minimized. Integration with Plaspy provides real-time tracking, configurable telemetry cadence and event-based alerts so operators can react quickly to unauthorized movement while preserving battery life during routine monitoring.

For operations that require comprehensive vehicle telemetry such as ignition, immobilizer control or fuel monitoring, the Syrus Asset Tracker pairs well within a broader Plaspy deployment alongside vehicle-installed trackers that expose those inputs. Likewise, where external sensing is needed, this device can be used together with Plaspy-compatible BLE sensor gateways or other peripheral devices to extend telemetry capabilities. Choosing the Syrus Asset Tracker for Plaspy means choosing a low-maintenance, resilient GPS tracker that prioritizes long autonomy, reliable reporting and easy integration into real-time fleet management workflows.
