M2 Asset Traking Beacon + Wirepas Mesh

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is a wireless network that allows location tracking within range. It can also be used for valuable asset tracking.

The M2 BLE asset tracking beacon uses low-energy Bluetooth technology to monitor stock and vital assets in indoor and outdoor environments. It is portable, easy to install, and does not require specialized tools. It can be hung, screwed, or attached with adhesive.

The M2 asset beacon provides a range of up to 160m in open spaces. It can be easily configured using the BEACONX PRO APP on iOS or Android devices.

BLE Asset Tracking Benefits

Bluetooth Low Energy tracking techniques offer the following benefits:
Data transfer using a BLE asset tracking device is fast
You get a wider range using a BLE beacon
The signals transmitted by beacons are more secure
BLE devices consume less power
It is a cost-effective means of asset tracking
Beacons offer high transmission capacity
They are simple to install
Beacons are used for both indoor and outdoor purposes
They provide real-time geographic locations

How an Asset Beacon Works

Bluetooth beacons are similar to Wi-Fi networks – they transmit radio waves within a certain range (up to 70 meters). The device repeatedly transmits a radio signal, which can be seen by other devices within its range.
The radio signals that the beacon transmits are made up of numbers and letters that are transmitted at regular intervals (approximately 1/10 of a second). When a Bluetooth-enabled device, such as a smartphone, is within range of the transmitting device, it can see the beacon.
This is similar to lighthouses that permanently emit visible light that serves as navigational guides for sailors.
