Telstra Track and Monitor

Telstra Track and Monitor is an IoT solution that gives you automated, mapped visibility of your moving assets at scale. Leveraging new Telstra innovations, data on your assets’ location and condition is collected by IoT devices and sent via cost efficient network technologies to be displayed on a simple, intuitive portal.

Battery life will vary depending on the movement of each asset and will also depend on device use/configuration and surrounding conditions. Customers can check the status of their batteries any time in the Telstra Track and Monitor Portal

*Battery life depends on device use/configuration and surrounding conditions.

The device automatically adjusts its location collection and reporting frequency depending on whether it is moving or stationary. By default, it will collect GPS locations every 1 minute and report them every 10 minutes while moving. While stationary, the device reports its location once every 4 hours. Where the tracker battery reduces below a normal level, the tracker automatically reduces its GPS scan and upload interval.

There is a number of factors that can impact the accuracy of your last known location, including device type, access to network and GPS and whether the device is moving.

Each device type connects to different elements of the Telstra Network as follows:

Telstra Track and Monitor CAT-M1 Solar Tracking Unit - Cat M1 technology on the Telstra Mobile Network.

The device will store its location and condition, as per its agreed frequency, and upload these to Telstra when it obtains coverage. Telstra offers around 3 million square kilometres of Cat M1 coverage on the Telstra IoT Network, which is Australia’s largest, ready built low power wide area (LPWA) footprint.
