- 🔒 Remote Immobilization – Cut off engine power remotely (only at speeds under 20 km/h).
- 🆘 External SOS Button – Instantly sends emergency alerts.
- 📍 Geofencing – Get notified when a vehicle enters or leaves predefined zones.
- 🗺️ Route Optimization – Supports efficient path planning to save time and fuel.
- 🧭 Driver Behavior Analysis – Detects unsafe driving like harsh braking or speeding.
- ⛽ Fuel Monitoring – Tracks fuel consumption and detects theft or unusual detours.
- ❄️ Temperature Monitoring – Ensures goods like produce and beverages remain fresh.
Built for the Future of Connected Vehicles
Targeting global IoT markets, the JM-VL02 offers multi-interface support, enabling the connection of multiple sensors and peripherals, which makes it highly adaptable to diverse use cases. Its compact, rugged design ensures durability even in harsh conditions — while still delivering accurate, real-time data to users through Jimi’s cloud platform or mobile app.
Why PTCRB Certification Matters
The PTCRB (PCS Type Certification Review Board) is an organization formed by North American cellular operators to ensure devices meet technical standards before being allowed on their networks. PTCRB-certified devices are guaranteed to offer network compatibility, device reliability, and security assurance — key concerns for enterprise-grade deployments.
Without PTCRB certification, a tracking device may fail to connect reliably or be outright rejected by major operators, making this certification essential for market readiness in North America.
With PTCRB certification in hand, the JM-VL02 4G LTE GPS tracker is now ready to deliver its powerful combination of performance, scalability, and security to partners and customers across the globe.
