The Falcon GXT5000 helps better serve SkyBitz users with actionable information that helps them identify areas to cut costs and avoid capital expenditures through better utilization of existing assets.

Additional features of the Falcon GXT5000 include:

•A low-profile, self-contained, rugged design

•Reliable power efficiency for extended service life

•Reporting for 90-120 days without direct exposure to sunlight

•Easy and flexible installation (less than 15 minutes on average to install)

•Supports cargo status data via sensors

•More intelligent and responsive self-diagnostics, allowing for over-the-air troubleshooting
