The GT06N, a key product of Jimi IoT, has been a leader in the vehicle tracking market for over 15 years, establishing itself as an industry mainstay. This device has achieved a significant milestone, with over three million units sold worldwide by early 2022 and is projected to reach a cumulative sales milestone of four million units by 2025. We’ll take a closer look at why the GT06N is so popular.

Era of portable vehicle trackers

It has attained significant market prominence within the fleet management sector due to its unique advantages, effectively catering to the core requirements of contemporary fleet management systems. Prior to its advent, the market was dominated by cumbersome and weighty devices, which posed challenges in terms of transportation and installation. In contrast, the GT06N’s early market entry as a lightweight tracker with an integrated antenna design not only streamlines the installation process but also imbues the device with an understated elegance. 

Another standout feature is its emergency response capabilities, including remote control of the power/fuel supply, a discreet SOS button, and a remotely activated microphone. This combination constitutes a formidable layer of anti-theft security by empowering swift intervention against unauthorized vehicle activity, thereby efficiently mitigating asset risks.

In essence, the GT06N is not merely a technological innovation; it is a paradigm shift in fleet management, harmoniously blending aesthetics with functionality, and transforming the once utilitarian world of tracking devices into one that marries form and function with refined sophistication. Its arrival signals a new epoch where safety, efficiency, and design converge seamlessly, redefining the standards of excellence within the industry.

Adapting to diverse communication

For customers concerned about integration challenges, The GT06N features a user-friendly communication protocol that simplifies integration greatly. Its popularity has led to the creation of the Concox communication protocol, facilitating easy connections to the third-party telematics and IoT platforms like flespi. This capability allows fleet managers to monitor data intuitively, providing real-time insights and improving management efficiency.

The GT06N utilizes 2G technology, ensuring global compatibility in both advanced and developing countries. While 2G is being phased out in many areas, it remains widely used in Southeast Asia and parts of Africa. Meanwhile, Europe and Latin America are shifting to the 4G version of the GT06N to meet market demands and improve communication efficiency. In response to this evolution, we are proud to offer a 4G version of the GT06N, strategically developed to meet regional needs.

The GT06N offers flexible integration options, including API adaptation and OEM, ODM, and OBM services to meet various industry needs. While GT06N have multiple benefits, we strive to be attentive in our pricing to ensure a cost-effective solution that gives value for every dollar invested. It is the best choice for those who are budget conscious and at the same time are looking for an efficient fleet management solution and are not willing to compromise on quality.

Exceptional peripheral connectivity

Integrated fleet solutions are increasingly popular in car rental, ridesharing, trucking, and hazardous materials transportation. The GT06N enhances driver monitoring through its connectivity with the Jimi IoT JC170 DMS camera, which uses AI to track risky behaviors like phone use and drowsiness. This combination provides quick visual evidence via GPRS technology, aids in accident documentation, and improves compliance, ultimately promoting safer driving and reducing operational risks during long hours on the road.

Summary

The GT06N is a versatile vehicle tracking solution, popular for its adaptability across various sectors and its integration with advanced monitoring technology like the Jimi IoT JC170 DMS camera. The 4G-only VL103M further enhances capabilities with improved positioning accuracy, data transmission, battery life, and additional features such as temperature monitoring and driving behavior analysis, making it ideal for markets with extensive 4G coverage. As a result, the VL103M consistently ranks among the top three in sales within the Jimi IoT series, confirming its market-leading status.

Expert opinion 

We’ve asked Vladimir Tihonchuk, a hardware specialist at Gurtam, to share his insights on the list:

Jimi IoT GT06N—a tracker that’s legendary in its own way.

Integrated over 10 years ago under the Concox brand, it remains one of the most popular solutions to this day. The combination of an attractive price and decent features is the key to its success. I can’t say there’s anything unique about the tracker—there isn’t. Everything is quite standard, but the tracker has been continuously improved; for instance, RS232 was added, immediately moving it to a different league.

In terms of circuitry and implementation, it’s simply a solid tracker for the price. It just works, and you can set it up relatively easily. Configuration is possible via SMS (at least to set the IP and port, and then using TCP commands once connected to the platform). The commands are straightforward and simple. Years of operation by our partners confirm the reliable performance of these trackers. I’d say the GT06N is the choice of pragmatic partners who want solid functionality for their money.
