providing asset tracking and fleet management solutions to customers from remote
regions. The wireless device integrates a number of innovations including
the use of a smaller and lighter simplex transmitter unit. It is also equipped
with a long life, easy to change battery that will provide customers with up to
seven years of battery life. It includes an integrated motion detector, a
built in reed switch, field wake up capability, and a wireless configuration
tool.
"The AXTracker MMT is the first in a series of specifically designed,
innovative, and easy to use Globalstar simplex data solutions that integrate the
new Axonn STX2 Patented Satellite Transmitter Unit," said Jay Monroe,
Chairman and CEO of Globalstar, Inc. Mr. Monroe added, "the MMT is not only
smaller, lighter, and completely self contained, but Axonn has produced a more
affordable solution that is over 15% percent less expensive to implement than
the previous AXTracker product."
Axonn is engaged in developing technology for wireless global one-way
communication and the tracking of fixed and mobile assets.
