Sigfox IoT Provider Xperanti Orders GPS Devices from Digital Matter

By Ken Briodagh November 12, 2019

According to a recent release, Digital Matter has partnered with Xperanti IoT, in order to supply more than 11,000 Oyster Sigfox battery-powered GPS tracking devices for asset tracking in Malaysia on the LPWAN Sigfox Network.

Digital Matter says its tracking solutions are used in more than 100 countries around the world to monitor and optimize non-powered assets. The Oyster Sigfox also is designed to provide theft prevention and recovery and enable preventative maintenance planning.

Air Asia reportedly is using the devices at Kuala Lumpur International Airport for Ground Support Equipment (GSE) management to improve On-Time-Performance.

“The Oyster's industrial-grade housing, configurable firmware for tracking various asset types and behaviors, and the highly accurate global positioning module make it the perfect device for tracking a wide range of non-powered assets,” said Ashokan Nair, VP, Technology & Ecosystem, Xperanti. “For partners and clients to have access to reliable, sustainable and scalable tracking solutions that consume low battery power is a great addition to the market.”
