Telematics provider SkyBitz Inc. announced its new solar-powered Falcon GXT5000, the next generation of its asset-tracking products using 3G/4G cellular networks.

Among its features are: a low-profile, self-contained, rugged design; reporting for 90-120 days without direct exposure to sunlight; providing cargo status data via sensors; and more intelligent and responsive self-diagnostics, allowing for over-the-air troubleshooting, the Herndon, Virginia-based company said.

“We developed the Falcon GXT5000 to provide our customers with the ultimate long-lasting and hassle-free asset management solution,” Skybitz President Henry Popplewell said in a statement.

SkyBitz is a subsidiary of Chicago-based Telular Corp.
