Concox - VL501

The VL501 is a plug-and-play LTE GPS tracker built for quick installation and reliable fleet monitoring. Designed as a Green-Gps compatible device, the VL501 delivers precise location and rich telematics over modern cellular networks and Bluetooth. Its removable cigarette-lighter power design, compact form factor, and comprehensive alert set make it an ideal choice for fleet managers, rental operators, and last-mile delivery services who need fast deployment and continuous real-time tracking.

The VL501 combines multi-constellation GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BDS, AGPS, QZSS) with LTE connectivity and Bluetooth to deliver sub-2.5 m CEP positioning in open sky. Onboard motion sensors, a built-in microphone (North America only), LED indicators and an in-cabin SOS/panic button enable anti-theft and safety workflows. With OTA firmware updates and 64 Mb buffering for intermittent connectivity, the VL501 integrates cleanly with Green-Gps to provide telemetry, event alerts, and fleet-level reporting without complex wiring.

Key Highlights

• Plug-and-play installation via cigarette-lighter connector (9–36 VDC) — deploy trackers quickly without hardwiring.
• Green-Gps compatible for real-time tracking and fleet management dashboards over LTE and Bluetooth.
• High-accuracy GNSS: reported <2.5 m CEP in open sky, multi-constellation support for reliable positioning.
• Comprehensive telematics and anti-theft alerts: collision/vibration, unplug/installation, low external power, geo-fence and driver behavior events.
• Small backup battery (50 mAh) and 64 Mb local memory to buffer location and events during connectivity gaps.
• Fast charging for external devices via USB-A and USB-C and OTA firmware updates for easier field maintenance.
• Bluetooth support for external sensors and beacons to extend telemetry without additional cabling.

How It Works with Green-Gps

When paired with Green-Gps, the VL501 streams GNSS position and on-device sensor telemetry over LTE to the Green-Gps platform for real-time tracking, alerting and historical reporting. The device buffers data locally (64 Mb) during connectivity interruptions and uploads stored events when the cellular link returns. Bluetooth-attached sensors and onboard motion detectors feed event-driven messages into Green-Gps so fleet managers see actionable telemetry, alerts and live maps in one place.

• Real-time location and telemetry updates delivered to Green-Gps for live monitoring and route replay.
• Collision, vibration and driving-behavior alerts (speeding, fatigue driving) forwarded to Green-Gps for immediate notification and reporting.
• Unplug/installation and low external power warnings that help with anti-theft workflows and device health monitoring.
• Geo-fence notifications and SOS/panic events integrated into Green-Gps incident workflows and dispatch rules.
• Bluetooth sensors data (temperature, movement, beacons) relayed to Green-Gps where supported to enrich telemetry.
• Buffered storage and OTA firmware updates enable resilient field operation and simplified maintenance via Green-Gps device management.

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Courier and last-mile delivery fleets that require fast deployment, real-time tracking and driver behavior alerts.
• Car rental and leasing operations that prefer removable, non-wired trackers for temporary monitoring and anti-theft recovery.
• Usage-Based Insurance (UBI) pilots where driving behavior telemetry and accurate GPS position are essential for risk scoring.
• Temporary or seasonal fleets and contractors that need plug-and-play installation without vehicle wiring, plus buffer storage for intermittent coverage.
• General fleet management and asset protection where geo-fencing, unplug alerts and SOS events improve safety and reduce loss.

Why Choose This Tracker with Green-Gps

The VL501 delivers a practical balance of accuracy, speed of deployment and telematics capability for organizations using Green-Gps. Its plug-and-play cigarette lighter power and compact form factor reduce installation time and allow rapid redeployment across vehicles. Built-in motion sensors, collision and vibration alerts, unplug detection, SOS and optional remote listen-in provide a strong anti-theft and safety layer that Green-Gps can act on in real time. With Bluetooth sensor support, 64 Mb buffering, and FOTA updates, the VL501 supports resilient telemetry and scalable fleet management.

Combined with Green-Gps’s dashboards and reporting, the VL501 offers fleet managers reliable real-time tracking and telemetry while enabling integration with broader vehicle systems. Where ignition, immobilizer states or fuel monitoring are available from a vehicle or additional sensors, Green-Gps can correlate those inputs with VL501 location and sensor data to give a complete picture of vehicle health and usage. For teams that prioritize quick installation, dependable positioning and streamlined device management, the VL501 is a Green-Gps compatible GPS tracker that reduces rollout friction and improves operational visibility.
