If you've been comparing Teltonika trackers for your fleet, you've probably noticed two similarly-numbered families sitting side by side: the established FMC series and the newer FTC series. Model names like FMC920 and FTC921 look almost interchangeable, and it's easy to assume the "C" and the three digits are all that matter. They're not. FTC and FMC represent two different hardware and software generations from Teltonika, built around different configuration tools, connecti

The FMC920 is the tracker most UK fleets already know: a compact, hardwired 4G LTE Cat 1 device that has been the default entry-level choice for years. The FTC920 is Teltonika's newer take on the same job, built on the company's FT platform with a substantially better GNSS receiver. They look similar, they cost similar money, and they sit side by side in our catalogue — but they are not interchangeable. One difference in particular decides which one belongs in your vehicles.

An honest side-by-side of Teltonika and Queclink GPS trackers from a UK distributor that stocks both — device range, configurability, asset tracking, pricing and UK stock.

FMC130 vs FMC230 compared: I/O, waterproofing, interfaces and use cases — so you pick the right Teltonika 4G tracker first time.

Standard GPS trackers tell you where a vehicle is and how fast it is going. CAN bus GPS trackers go further — they read directly from the vehicle's own data network, unlocking fuel consumption, odometer readings, engine fault codes, RPM, axle weight, and dozens of other parameters that would otherwise require a separate diagnostic module. If you want to understand what your vehicles are doing rather than just where they are, CAN bus is the technology to look at. What Is the C

Fuel is typically the largest controllable cost in any fleet — often 30–40% of total running expenses. Modern GPS trackers with fuel monitoring give fleet managers the data to identify waste, reduce unnecessary consumption, and catch fuel theft before it becomes a significant loss. Here is how it works and what you can expect to save. How Do GPS Trackers Monitor Fuel? There are two main methods. CAN bus integration: Teltonika and Queclink GPS trackers with CAN bus support con

A GPS tracker tells you where your vehicle was and how fast it was going. A dashcam tells you what happened. Together, they create the most complete record of any fleet incident — and UK fleet operators are increasingly choosing combined video telematics solutions that deliver both in a single integrated system. What Is Fleet Video Telematics? Fleet video telematics combines GPS tracking data — position, speed, braking, acceleration — with synchronised video footage from came

Not every asset you need to track has a 12V power supply. Trailers, portable equipment, motorcycles, containers, and non-motorised vehicles all need a tracker that runs on its own battery. The Teltonika TAT100 was built exactly for this purpose — a compact, self-powered GPS device that tracks anything, anywhere, without needing a wiring connection. What Is the Teltonika TAT100? The TAT100 is a compact battery-powered GPS tracker from Teltonika. It runs entirely from a non-rec

Van fleets are one of the most common GPS tracking use cases in the UK. Whether you run 3 vans or 300, fitting a reliable GPS tracker gives you visibility of where every vehicle is, who is driving it, and how it is being used — and gives drivers the confidence that their work is being recognised fairly. What to Look for in a GPS Tracker for Vans Not all GPS trackers suit van fleets equally. Key features to look for include 4G connectivity so tracking works across modern UK ne

If you are evaluating dashcam solutions for a commercial vehicle fleet in the UK, the Queclink CV200 and CV5000 are two of the most capable options on the market. This guide compares them side by side to help UK fleet managers make the right choice.

For most UK fleet operators, cellular GPS tracking — using the 4G mobile network — provides everything they need. But for fleets operating in remote areas, at sea, or internationally, standard cellular coverage simply isn't available. That's where satellite-based tracking systems, most notably Iridium, come in. In this guide, we'll explain how cellular and satellite GPS tracking differ, which applications demand satellite connectivity, and how to decide which technology is ri

If you're searching for a reliable 4G GPS tracker for your UK fleet, Teltonika's FMC, FMB, and FTM product lines are among the most capable devices on the market today. Used by fleet operators, logistics companies, and telematics integrators across Europe, Teltonika trackers offer a combination of robust hardware, flexible connectivity, and deep configuration options that few competitors can match. In this guide, we'll break down the key differences between the FMC, FMB, and

GPS tracking tells you where your assets are. Teltonika's EYE range tells you what condition they are in, who is near them, whether a door has been opened, what temperature they are being stored at, and whether they have been moved — all wirelessly, with no additional wiring, and all transmitted automatically to your fleet management platform. At Tracking Hardware UK, we are an official Teltonika distributor with the full EYE Sensor and EYE Beacon range in stock at our London

The Teltonika FMB920 and FMC920 are the two most widely deployed GPS trackers in UK fleets. They share the same compact form factor, the same accessory ecosystem, and the same firmware architecture — but differ in one critical specification: network technology. The FMB920 uses 2G (GPRS), while the FMC920 uses 4G LTE. Understanding that difference, and what it means for your fleet in the UK today and in the years ahead, is the key to choosing the right device. The Core Differe

In today’s connected world, reliable global tracking is more important than ever.
