Lantronix Fox Telematik Gateway Series
Advanced remote tracking for heavy machinery
Remote monitoring and control of heavy machinery such as agricultural equipment, mining equipment, and construction machinery can significantly improve operative processes and workflows. To always ensure the required secure and reliable remote access for those machines and systems, a robust telematic infrastructure is essential.
The compact Fox Series Telematic Gateways by Lantronix, equipped with extensive connectivity options and advanced edge intelligence, were developed specifically for these challenging tasks in remote tracking and management of heavy machinery. FOX telematic gateways enable the optimization of system control and connected device management, covering everything from data collection to cloud integration, efficiency, and operational availability.
With continuous, accurate recording of business-critical operating data and the automated provision of useful information on essential parameters such as motion, location, driver/operator, maintenance status, and fuel consumption of the machines, users gain improved traceability of their machines and vehicles as well as the ability to make more informed decisions about their processes, prevent operational disruptions and failures, and optimize workflows in the long term.
The Lantronix FOX telematic gateways also protect data with AES encryption and SSL/TLS 1.3 to secure assets and operations against cyber security threats. Advanced encryption not only protects sensitive operational data but also enables seamless integration with cloud platforms for analytics and reporting.
With additional BLE tags that can be attached to extra equipment and accessories, the FOX series extends its functionality beyond the main asset, reducing the need for additional telematic units for attachments. The integrated Bluetooth Low Energy enables the connection of additional sensors and equipment, such as i.e. plows, spreaders, and harvesters in agricultural use cases, and collects essential operational data for such applications. The FOX series is ideally suited for precision farming and modular machine fleets where individual component usage and condition are critical.
With configurable smart alerts and geofencing, the FOX series offers active security and automation functions in addition to basic tracking functions. Customizable geo zones allow for early detection and reporting of unauthorized movements, use outside specified areas, or deviating usage patterns, and the targeted automation of notification, status change, or escalation processes.
The advanced security mechanisms and processing functions of the Lantronix FOX telematic gateway series contribute to a measurable reduction of operational costs while improving the protection of assets and sensitive operational data. With flexible edge intelligence and seamless cloud integration, the FOX series also future proofs heavy machinery solutions and creates a robust basis for future functional expansions. By enabling transparent and reliable management and monitoring, the gateways support new revenue models in rental and service-oriented applications, such as usage-based billing or performance driven service contracts.
Lantronix Percepxion™ Software
The integrated Lantronix Percepxion™ centralized device management platform facilitates cloud-based management via a central dashboard for the reliable and efficient administration of even large and geographically distributed installations. Innovative Percepxion™ features such as automated provisioning, remote software updates, and real-time telemetry monitoring help to accelerate rollouts, consistency in configuration and software updates, and significant reductions in personnel costs. This allows FOX gateways to be deployed faster, continuously monitored, and updated immediately as needed, minimizing downtime and sustainably improving availability in heavy machinery applications.
In addition, the advanced edge intelligence of Lantronix's Percepxion software enables efficient on-device processing of operating data and local storage on FOX gateways, ensuring only relevant data is transferred to the cloud. This accelerates smart responses on the device, even when connectivity is unstable or bandwidth is limited.
