Geotab’s GO9 RUGGED telematics device is the most powerful yet. The GO9 RUGGED offers a 32-bit processor, 4x more memory and 5x more RAM than the GO8 RUGGED®. Similar to the GO8 RUGGED, the GO9 RUGGED offers state-of-the-art GPS technology, G-force monitoring, GEOTAB IOX® expandability, engine and battery health assessments, and communication on the LTE network*.

Vehicle tracking

Using Geotab’s patented tracking algorithm, the GO9 RUGGED accurately recreates vehicle trips and analyzes incidents. The GO9 RUGGED also offers in-vehicle alerts to instantly notify drivers of infractions and — with hardware Add-Ons — provides live coaching for driver’s on-road performance. The GO9 RUGGED does not require a dash-mounted antenna or any wire splicing.

Security

Geotab platform security is designed for end-to-end protection of your data.

Key implementations include:

• GOTM device and network interfaces use authentication, encryption, and message integrity verification.
• GO devices are individualized. Each device uses a unique ID and non-static security key, making it difficult to fake a device’s identity.
• Over-the-air updates use digitally-signed firmware to verify that updates come from a trusted source.
• Geotab uses independent third-party experts to validate the platform from end-to-end.
• FIPS 140-2 validated by NIST (certificate #3371).
