Hardwired Vehicle Tracker
Hardwired GPS Tracking Built for Professional Fleets

Professionally installed and connected to the AGL Fleet Platform for real-time fleet visibility, journey history, driver behaviour information, alerts and reporting.
Reliable. Secure. Connected.
What Is a Hardwired Vehicle Tracker?
A hardwired GPS vehicle tracker is professionally installed directly into a vehicle's electrical system rather than relying on a removable plug-in connection. This makes hardwired tracking particularly suitable for businesses that need a permanent, discreet and dependable fleet tracking solution.
Once installed, the tracker sends GPS location and telematics information to the AGL Fleet Platform. Authorised fleet users can then monitor vehicle location, journey activity and other useful operational information from connected devices.
Hardwired tracking is particularly useful for commercial fleets where vehicles remain within the business for the longer term and reliable visibility is required as part of everyday fleet management.
