The TLW2-12BL is a hardwired 4G LTE vehicle GPS tracker designed for fleet management, anti-theft protection, and advanced telemetry. Plaspy compatible out of the box, this unit brings high-frequency real-time tracking (position updates as fast as every 3 seconds), robust GNSS performance and integrated Bluetooth Low Energy for external sensor support, making it a versatile choice for operators who need reliable location intelligence and vehicle control through the Plaspy platform.
The TLW2-12BL is built for global deployment with CAT-M1 4G connectivity and 2G fallback, extensive I/O for ignition detection and relay-controlled immobilization, and on-device buffering of up to 60,000 location points for operation across intermittent networks. When paired with Plaspy, fleet managers gain instant access to live location, telemetry, fuel monitoring, crash and driving behavior alerts, and BLE sensor data for cold-chain or door/temperature monitoring.
Key Highlights
- Plaspy compatible GPS tracker with real-time tracking down to 3-second updates for precise fleet management.
- Global 4G CAT-M1 coverage with 2G fallback and a comprehensive set of supported bands for worldwide roaming.
- Integrated BLE 5.0 for TOPFLYtech accessories — temperature, humidity and door sensors, plus wireless relays.
- Extensive I/O: ignition detection, multiple digital/analog inputs, digital outputs for remote immobilizer and buzzer control.
- Robust GNSS using Qualcomm Gen 8C (GPS+GLONASS+Galileo+BeiDou) with autonomous accuracy under 2 m CEP and fast TTFF.
- Large offline buffer (up to 60,000 points) and telemetry over TCP/UDP/MQTT/SMS for resilient tracking and reporting.
- Vehicle safety features including crash detection, towing detection, driving behavior monitoring and jamming detection.
- Compact, IP65-rated housing and wide operating voltage (DC 7V–60V) for diverse vehicle installations.
How It Works with Plaspy
The TLW2-12BL streams vehicle position and telemetry directly to Plaspy using standard telematics channels (TCP/UDP/MQTT/SMS). Plaspy ingests GPS/GNSS coordinates, accelerometer-based events, input/output state changes and BLE sensor readings, and then presents them in dashboards, maps and reports. Device-side buffering ensures no loss of history during temporary network outages — buffered points upload automatically when connectivity returns.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates (as frequent as every 3 seconds) — visible in Plaspy maps and live views.
- Ignition and digital input status for trip detection, PTO and door alarms — integrated into Plaspy alerts and reports.
- Analog fuel sensor input for fuel monitoring and event-based reporting to Plaspy.
- Remote immobilizer/relay control via Plaspy commands supported through the device’s digital outputs.
- Bluetooth sensors (BLE 5.0) such as temperature, humidity and door sensors — sensor telemetry relayed to Plaspy for cold-chain and security use cases.
