Orbcomm GT1230 — Solar-Powered Dry Trailer and Container Tracker
The Orbcomm GT1230 is a purpose-built solar-powered tracking device for dry trailers and containers, combining intelligent asset tracking technology with advanced solar power management to deliver outstanding reliability and ROI for logistics and fleet operators. Designed to give complete supply chain visibility — including trailer location, door status, cargo presence and tractor identification — the GT1230 supports the full range of accessories needed for end-to-end trailer intelligence from a single device.
The GT1230 uses global LTE connectivity with automatic fallback to multi-band 3G and 2G networks, ensuring consistent reporting across different countries and network environments. An optional satellite accessory provides backup connectivity for remote areas, while a next-generation solar panel with fast charging delivers the long battery life required for trailers that spend extended periods in yards without movement.
