Acculink, a Managed Solution for High-Value Cargo Asset Tracking

With Acculink Cargo, companies can now target not only where an asset is, but how it’s doing, and if it is in its original state. Acculink can monitor critical events like temperature, shock, vibration, light, and motion. This enables shippers to understand the location of their cargo and other assets in near real-time- enabling quick and decisive action should a change in scheduling, an event of loss or theft, or an update in state of being occur.

Building a solution to wirelessly track and monitor assets, with cellular connectivity, as well as the goods they contain, can be complex and so can its ongoing maintenance. That’s why we offer Acculink Cargo as a fully-integrated, end-to-end managed service that is fast and easy to deploy, with minimal start-up costs, backed by decades of IoT experience from the global leader of IoT solutions, services, and applications.

Acculink Cargo enables these value added benefits:

• Reduce time and effort spent locating assets
• Increase accuracy of information needed for business intelligence
• Improve customer service
• Reduce inventory and returnable asset loss (cargo, containers)
• Benefit from keen insight into how an asset is doing, not just location data

Sierra Wireless managed solutions are fully-integrated from device to cloud to deliver accurate, timely visibility into the location of all high-value assets. The specialized devices work seamlessly with applications, and all applications offer web-based interfaces that allow users to access information from PCs, tablets, or smartphones. Advanced analytics deliver reports and visualizations specifically designed for each vertical industry.

To Implement Acculink Asset Tracking

The devices monitor the asset’s critical metrics and send data to the application via cellular or satellite communication, depending on the devices and network implemented. The application uses this data to manage assets and present information via a friendly web interface that highlights problems and potential bottlenecks; an integrated mapping function makes it easy to visualize materials movement.

Devices

Our Acculink Cargo asset tracking devices are rugged, durable and purpose-built not only for tracking the location of your high value assets, but also monitoring them for temperature, vibration, shock, light, and motion. Equipped with long life batteries or wired directly, our devices are built for durability and can be deployed in the field to remote locations for long periods of time, protecting your high-value assets for years.
