IET10 Asset Locator & Tracker

The IET10 (formerly ieThings / Wisol) is a comprehensive asset locator device capable of obtaining both outdoor and indoor locations using three different technologies – GPS, WiFi and BLE. Its long and thin form factor is especially suited for attaching to trolleys, bars etc. Onboard sensors are used to alert when removed from the asset, as well as monitor the asset movement and its local temperature.
