A4 Asset Tags

With the release of the new W4 patient tags, Ekahau have launched a new asset tag A4. The A4 tag is an active location tracking tag that operates over WIFI networks. By using standard WIFI (802.11) the A4 tag allows users to search for and locate equipment though a GUI interface.

Users can send text alerts to third party devices, if equipment leave their nominated areas. This type of tracking reduces the likelihood of theft and items being misplaced. The tags also include a 5v charger with the option of an external battery pack to further extend tags life.
