FMC800

Teltonika FMC800 — 4G LTE Cat 1 Plug and Play OBD Tracker with Bluetooth and Crash Trace Data

The Teltonika FMC800 is one of the simplest and fastest-to-deploy 4G trackers in the Teltonika range — a plug-and-play OBD device that connects to the vehicle's OBD-II port in seconds with no tools, no wiring and no installation engineer required. Simply plug it in and the FMC800 immediately begins tracking location and transmitting data over 4G LTE Cat 1 to your fleet management platform.

What sets the FMC800 apart from basic OBD dongles is its detailed crash trace data capability. The built-in 3-axis accelerometer with fully configurable parameters captures precise pre- and post-impact data, providing accurate crash reconstruction evidence for insurance claims and fleet safety programmes. Combined with Bluetooth 4.0 for wireless sensor and accessory connectivity, the FMC800 is a compelling solution for luxury car tracking, insurance telematics, car rental and any fleet application where instant, tool-free deployment is essential.

As an official Teltonika distributor in the UK, Tracking Hardware UK ships the FMC800 directly from our London warehouse — with trade pricing available for telematics service providers, fleet operators and resellers.

Driver Identification with Tracking Hardware UK BLE Keypad

The FMC800 supports Bluetooth 4.0 and is fully compatible with the Tracking Hardware UK BLE driver identification keypad. Drivers enter their unique PIN or present their card on the keypad at the start of each trip, and the driver ID is logged alongside all tracking and OBD data — giving fleet managers complete visibility of who was driving each vehicle at any given time. No wiring required, no complex installation. Contact us to discuss keypad and FMC800 bundle pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the FMC800 and the FMC001?

Both are 4G LTE plug-and-play OBD trackers. The FMC001 adds CAN and K-Line interfaces for access to a broader range of vehicle data beyond standard OBD-II parameters. The FMC800 focuses on ease of deployment and detailed crash trace data with its configurable 3-axis accelerometer. If crash trace accuracy is the priority, the FMC800 is the better choice. If broader vehicle data is needed, the FMC001 is more suitable.

What is crash trace data and why does it matter?

Crash trace data is a detailed record of vehicle motion captured by the accelerometer immediately before and after an impact event. The FMC800 captures this data with fully configurable parameters, providing accurate evidence for insurance claims, accident reconstruction and fleet safety investigations — far more useful than a simple crash alert with no supporting data.

Is the FMC800 compatible with the Tracking Hardware UK BLE driver identification keypad?

Yes — the FMC800 supports Bluetooth 4.0 and is fully compatible with the Tracking Hardware UK BLE driver identification keypad. Drivers enter their PIN wirelessly at the start of each trip and the driver ID is logged alongside all tracking data. Contact us for keypad and FMC800 bundle pricing.

Does the FMC800 need a SIM card?

Yes — the FMC800 requires a SIM card with 4G LTE data capability. It is not supplied with a SIM. Contact us if you need SIM recommendations for UK fleet deployments.
