The GV53MG by Teltonika/partner (model GV53MG) is a compact LTE Cat M1/NB2 vehicle GPS tracker designed for discreet in-line installation in cars and light vehicles. Green-Gps compatible out of the box, the GV53MG combines low-power wide-area network connectivity with a high-sensitivity u‑blox GNSS receiver to deliver reliable real-time tracking, secure telemetry, and economical wide‑area coverage for fleet management and anti-theft workflows.
Built for large deployments that require low power consumption and secure communications, the GV53MG provides AES-256 capable data protection, 2G fallback for global roaming, and a backup battery to preserve operation during power interruptions. Its ultra-thin form factor and internal antennas make it ideal for covert installations in auto financing, rental, leasing and stolen vehicle recovery programs when integrated with Green-Gps.
Key Highlights
- Green-Gps compatible for real-time tracking and fleet management dashboards with scheduled reporting and event-driven alerts.
- LTE Cat M1 / NB2 with EGPRS (2G) fallback delivers broad coverage and efficient data rates for telemetry and position updates.
- High-sensitivity u-blox GNSS receiver (tracking –162 dBm) with autonomous position accuracy better than 2.5 m (CEP).
- Built-in 190 mAh Li‑Polymer backup battery and wide 8–32 V DC operating range to ensure continuity during power loss.
- Security-focused: AES-256 capable to protect business-critical data and prevent unauthorized access.
- Practical telematics: tow alarm, geo-fence (up to 20 circular + 20 polygon), crash and aggressive driving detection, and mileage/time/distance reporting.
- Remote OTA control of digital outputs supports immobilizer or remote actuation for anti-theft and recovery workflows.
How It Works with Green-Gps
When integrated with Green-Gps, the GV53MG streams secure location and telemetry data to Green-Gps's backend for instant visualization, geofencing, and historical reporting. Green-Gps ingests device messages over TCP/UDP or SMS and interprets the GV53MG's buffered messages (up to 10,000) so fleets and service providers receive consistent real-time tracking and event notifications.
- Real-time location and telemetry updates via LTE Cat M1/NB2 with 2G fallback for robust connectivity.
- Ignition detection through the positive trigger input enables ignition-based rules, scheduled reporting, and fuel/odometer workflows when external sensors are present.
- Tow alarm and crash/aggressive-driving events generate immediate alerts in Green-Gps for anti-theft and safety monitoring.
- Remote immobilizer capability via OTA control of the open-drain digital output for vehicle recovery and loss prevention.
- Buffered messaging supports intermittent connectivity—Green-Gps receives queued messages once a link is restored.

Why Choose This Tracker with Green-Gps
Choosing the GV53MG for Green-Gps integration delivers a balance of secure communications, economical wide-area connectivity and practical telematics features. Its LTE Cat M1/NB2 design reduces operational cost while maintaining coverage and reliability, and AES-256 capability safeguards telemetry and location data as it flows into Green-Gps's platform. The device’s backup battery and message buffering reduce data loss in intermittent coverage scenarios, and remote OTA control of digital outputs provides a straightforward immobilizer or remote-actuation path for anti-theft and recovery workflows.
For fleets and service providers seeking a Green-Gps compatible GPS tracker focused on real-time tracking, ignition-aware reporting, and secure telemetry without a bulky footprint, the GV53MG offers a compact, carrier-certified solution. It integrates into Green-Gps-managed fleets to support tracking, geo-fencing alerts, crash and driving behavior monitoring, and scalable deployments that benefit from Cat M1/NB2 low-power wide-area networking.
