EYE Beacon

Teltonika EYE Beacon — IP67 BLE ID Beacon for Asset Traceability, Driver ID and Indoor Tracking

The Teltonika EYE Beacon is Teltonika's compact Bluetooth Low Energy ID beacon — the simpler, longer-life companion to the EYE Sensor, designed for applications where asset traceability, proximity detection, driver identification and indoor location tracking are the priority rather than environmental sensor monitoring. Each EYE Beacon broadcasts a unique ID wirelessly via BLE, which is picked up by nearby compatible Teltonika GPS trackers or BLE gateways, enabling the location and proximity of any asset, person or vehicle to be tracked without GPS on the beacon itself.

With an IP67 waterproof casing for reliable operation in logistics yards, construction sites, warehouses and outdoor environments, up to 10 years battery life reducing maintenance costs to near zero, and four flexible mounting options including screws, adhesive tape, zip ties and keychain attachment, the EYE Beacon attaches quickly and securely to virtually any asset type. Built-in magnet detection enables wireless trailer door and container door open and close monitoring, and a built-in accelerometer detects movement and fall events for additional security and condition monitoring.

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

Key Features

• Up to 10 years battery life — extraordinary long-life internal battery dramatically reduces maintenance costs and enables permanent deployment on assets, tools and equipment without battery replacement for the majority of their service life

• IP67 waterproof and dustproof — robust impact-resistant casing rated to IP67 for reliable operation in logistics yards, construction sites, warehouses, marine environments and all outdoor conditions

• Unique BLE ID broadcasting — each EYE Beacon has a unique identification number broadcast wirelessly via BLE — enabling individual asset, vehicle or person identification without physical contact

• iBeacon, Eddystone and custom data protocols — supports all major BLE advertising protocols for compatibility with Teltonika trackers, third-party gateways and a wide range of fleet management and indoor positioning platforms

• Magnet detection — built-in magnetometer detects changes in nearby magnetic field strength for wireless trailer door, container door and compartment open and close monitoring without physical wiring

• Accelerometer — detects item movement and fall events for additional asset security and monitoring

• Proximity event detection — compatible Teltonika trackers generate proximity events based on EYE Beacon signal strength, determining Near and Away zones for asset and cargo location management — triggering lost and found events when beacons move beyond configured range

• Detection by filters — advanced Teltonika firmware event scenarios filter EYE Beacon detections by specific criteria for targeted monitoring and alert management

• Driver identification — each beacon's unique ID can be used for automatic driver authentication — the tracker detects the driver's beacon and logs their ID alongside all journey and telematics data without any manual input

• Four mounting options — screws, adhesive tape, zip ties and keychain attachment for flexible deployment on tools, trailers, containers, cargo, key fobs and equipment

• Bluetooth 4.2 compliant, Bluetooth 5.2 certified — compatible with the full range of Teltonika BLE trackers and gateways

• Mobile app configuration — configured quickly and easily via the Teltonika EYE mobile app on Android or iOS

• Up to 500 metre range — BLE communication range of up to 500 metres in open environments

• Customisable with logo — custom logo printing available on request for branded fleet deployments

EYE Beacon vs EYE Sensor — Which Should You Choose?

The EYE Beacon is the simpler, longer-life option — focused on unique ID broadcasting, proximity detection, driver identification, indoor tracking and basic magnet and movement detection. Battery life of up to 10 years makes it ideal for permanent deployment on tools, trailers and equipment. The EYE Sensor adds built-in temperature and humidity monitoring alongside the accelerometer and magnet detection — making it the better choice when cargo condition data is required alongside location, such as cold chain monitoring or humidity-sensitive goods tracking. Choose the EYE Beacon for traceability and identification. Choose the EYE Sensor when environmental monitoring is needed.

Compatible Teltonika Trackers

The EYE Beacon is compatible with all Teltonika GPS trackers based on the FMB platform with Bluetooth 4.0 or higher — including the full FMB, FMC, FMM, FTC and FTM tracker families stocked at Tracking Hardware UK. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your specific tracker.

Typical Use Cases

Ideal for asset and tool traceability in construction, logistics and field service operations, driver identification without key fob or iButton for automated journey attribution, trailer and container door open and close monitoring using magnet detection, indoor asset and inventory tracking in warehouses, hospitals and transport hubs, delivery package and cargo tracking for last-mile logistics, agriculture tractor attachment and implement monitoring, access control and personnel tracking in industrial facilities, and any application requiring a long-life low-maintenance BLE proximity and ID beacon.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the EYE Beacon and the EYE Sensor?

The EYE Beacon focuses on unique ID broadcasting, proximity detection and basic magnet and movement detection — with up to 10 years battery life. The EYE Sensor adds built-in temperature and humidity sensors alongside the accelerometer and magnet detection — the better choice when cargo condition monitoring is required. Both are IP67 waterproof and use the same Teltonika EYE mobile app for configuration.

How does the EYE Beacon work for driver identification?

Each EYE Beacon broadcasts a unique ID via BLE. When a driver carries a beacon as a key fob or lanyard, the compatible Teltonika tracker detects it on ignition and automatically logs the driver ID alongside all journey and telematics data — no manual card swipe or button press required.

How long does the EYE Beacon battery last?

The EYE Beacon battery lasts up to 10 years depending on advertising interval and operating conditions — making it one of the longest-life BLE beacons available. Advertising interval can be configured via the Teltonika EYE mobile app to balance battery life against detection responsiveness.

Can the EYE Beacon detect trailer door events?

Yes — the built-in magnetometer detects changes in nearby magnetic field strength when a trailer or container door opens or closes, triggering an event in the connected Teltonika tracker and sending an alert to the fleet management platform — without any physical wiring between the door and the tracker.
