The completely wireless device integrates a number of innovations including the use of a smaller and lighter simplex transmitter unit. It is also equipped with a long life, easy to change battery that will provide customers with up to seven years of battery life.

The low profile design of the AXTracker MMT incorporates the use of a smaller, lighter Axonn transmitter unit plus 2.4 GHz RF connection capability, allowing it to be self-contained, and easily installed without the need for harnesses, external power or external antennas.

The unit is also MET Labs certified Class 1, Division 1 Groups A, B, C, D for the US and Canada. Because it is GPS based, the device is ideal for a variety of maritime or remote asset tracking applications. It can also be used for a number of remote monitoring and alarm applications, both within and beyond the reach of traditional wireless and terrestrial infrastructure.

"The AXTracker MMT is the first in a series of specifically designed, innovative, and easy to use Globalstar simplex data solutions that integrate the new Axonn STX2 Patented Satellite Transmitter Unit," said Jay Monroe, Chairman and CEO of Globalstar, Inc. Mr. Monroe added, "the MMT is not only smaller, lighter, and completely self contained, but Axonn has produced a more affordable solution that is over 15% percent less expensive to implement than the previous AXTracker product."

Axonn specializes in developing technology for wireless global one-way communication and the tracking of fixed and mobile assets. The new device includes an integrated motion detector, a built in reed switch, field wake up capability, and a wireless configuration tool.
