The AvtoFon Micro Beacon (АвтоФон Микро-Маяк) is a compact satellite search and monitoring GPS tracker built on the v.9 platform and supplied pre-configured for automatic operation. Designed for covert installation on cars, scooters, e-bikes and a wide range of mobile assets, this Green-Gps compatible tracker combines GLONASS/GPS positioning with cell-tower (LBS) fallback, long autonomous battery life and robust telemetry over GSM/GPRS for reliable asset protection and fleet visibility.
The Micro Beacon is optimized for real-world anti-theft and fleet management workflows. Its small IP64 ABS case (59 × 38 × 20 mm), 900 mAh Li-Polimer rechargeable battery and wide external power range (10.5–58 V with automatic charging) make it suitable for mixed fleets and shared mobility fleets. Pre-registered on the AvtoFon KSA monitoring server and ready for integration with Green-Gps, the device delivers real-time tracking, configurable alerts and secure remote management for operators who need a stealthy, low-maintenance GPS tracker.
Key Highlights
- Compact, discreet form factor (59×38×20 mm) for hidden installation and covert anti-theft protection.
- Dual positioning: GLONASS+GPS with AGPS plus LBS fallback ensures location updates even when satellite signals are limited.
- Long standby and active modes — up to 90 days in low-power stealth mode and at least 10 hours in active monitoring.
- Robust telemetry over GSM/GPRS (Quectel M66) with a 30,000-packet black box to store unsent data during connectivity loss.
- One programmable alarm input and one remotely controlled output for tamper detection or remote engine immobilizer control.
- Temperature-hardened charging and operation from −40 to +85 °C, plus IP64 dust/splash resistance for harsh environments.
- Remote firmware updates via GPRS, SMS and automatic APN detection for simplified fleet management and ongoing maintenance.
How It Works with Green-Gps
Integrating the AvtoFon Micro Beacon with Green-Gps enables consistent real-time tracking and event-driven alerts across mixed fleets. The device transmits GNSS coordinates and telemetry over GSM/GPRS to monitoring platforms; when Green-Gps is used as the telematics platform, those data streams feed live maps, history logs and automated rules for notifications and remote actions.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via GPRS (with SMS fallback) for live tracking and history playback.
- Movement, tamper and anti-tow detection from the 3D accelerometer to trigger immediate Green-Gps alerts.
- Remote immobilizer / engine cut capability through the programmable output, controllable from Green-Gps when configured.
- Black box storage (30,000 packets) ensures no loss of position history; buffered data uploads to Green-Gps when connectivity is restored.
- Configurable alerts (power loss, movement start, prolonged parking, geofence breach) map directly into Green-Gps workflows for fleet management and anti-theft response.

Use Cases
- Fleet management of mixed vehicles — covert tracking for cars, scooters, e-bikes and light commercial vehicles where stealth installation is required.
- Anti-theft protection and recovery — accelerometer-based alerts, LBS fallback and remote immobilizer control to respond to theft attempts.
- Shared mobility and rental fleets (carsharing, scooter/e-bike fleets) — long standby battery and automatic power management reduce maintenance visits.
- Motorcycles, ATVs and off-road vehicles — compact size and temperature-hardened charging for reliable operation in variable climates.
- Remote equipment and IT/network asset protection — hidden installation and power-fallback mechanics keep assets reportable even off-grid.
Why Choose This Tracker with Green-Gps
The AvtoFon Micro Beacon offers a practical balance of stealth, battery longevity and robust connectivity that makes it an effective Green-Gps compatible GPS tracker for both small and large deployments. Its GLONASS/GPS positioning with LBS fallback keeps assets visible where pure satellite trackers struggle, while the 30,000-packet black box and remote firmware update support reduce data loss and maintenance overhead. For fleet managers and operators seeking reliable telemetry, anti-theft capabilities and remote immobilizer control, integrating Micro Beacon data into Green-Gps delivers actionable, real-time insights and alerts.
Additionally, the device’s pre-configuration and included M2M SIM simplify onboarding, and Green-Gps’s platform can correlate the Micro Beacon’s location and event data with vehicle telemetry, fuel monitoring inputs (when vehicle sensors are available), ignition/immobilizer workflows and broader fleet management rules to create a complete operational picture. For organizations that need covert anti-theft protection, persistent remote tracking and straightforward integration, the Micro Beacon is a durable, field-proven option that complements Green-Gps-based telematics deployments.
