Wireless Links provides multiple solutions for trailer tracking, but the Piccolo Hybrid+ is specifically designed for trailer tracking. The trailer tracking device reports in real-time when the trailer is connected to the cabin and automatically switches to asset tracking mode once trailer is disconnected from the cabin, providing comprehensive visibility for trailers parked at job sites waiting to be unloaded and reloaded.

Wireless Links provides a number of devices with a battery.

The Piccolo Hybrid+ can operate for 5 years off its back up battery. Keep in mind that the device charges when the cabin is connected so when in motion, the device does not eat up the battery.

The solar powered device has a battery life of up to 10 years and charges with the help of the solar panels.

In 2010, CargoNet, a cargo theft prevention and recovery network, performed a self-insured impact study and found that cargo theft costs 10 times the goods stolen. According to their study, “You have to reimport [the product] or rush shipment. You’ve got to do air freight and that’s more costly. Then you have drayage from the port, so if you lose $200,000 in cargo, you need to generate $2 million in sales to offset it.”

To track you semi trucks, you need a gps tracker that will track the cabin as well as the semi trailer. 

Wireless Links Piccolo Hybrid is designed for this specific case. It is mounted on the semi trailer and operates as a real-time GPS tracker when tethered to power (to the cabin) and as an asset tracker with a long battery life once trailers are detached and parked for long periods of time.
