This is an active way to track corporate assets via bluetooth technology. Your smartphone or a BLE GATEWAY detects the bluetooth signal from the BLE tag on your asset and automatically (hence actively, and not passively) transmits location data via GPS to AllConnects' online management platform CHECK. The BLE tag can be attached to any type of equipment that is permanently in a gateway zone (yard, warehouse, company premises, etc.) or within the range of smartphones. Attention: it is not intended as a track and trace system for theft protection.

These are the main advantages of using a BLE tag:
- No manual handling/scanning is required; location determination is automatic
- Thanks to bluetooth 5.0 technology, batteries last longer (+/- 3 years at certain intervals), and are replaceable.
- The tags are ultra-small: no bigger than a 2 euro cent.
