Comparison of wired GPS locator and wireless GPS locator

Today with increasingly advanced technology, both companies and individuals want to control their cars at any time. Many people are hesitant to buy a car GPS locator, not knowing whether they should choose a wired GPS locator or a wireless GPS locator. Today, Eelink Communication Technology Co., Ltd. is here to explain the above problem in detail.

1. Wired GPS locator

Advantages: The working power of the wired GPS can be provided by the vehicle, so the biggest feature of the wired GPS is that it can be located in real time for 24 hours, without worrying about the device suddenly running out of power and going offline. In terms of signal strength, the signal of wired GPS equipment is also stronger, and the positioning accuracy is relatively better. In terms of function, the wired GPS locator is powerful, it can locate and track in real time, can remotely cut off the oil and control the electricity, and can alarm over speed. At the same time, the vehicle's driving track can also be viewed on the vehicle's monitoring platform.

Disadvantages: Wired GPS must be connected to the power cord of the vehicle, and the installation location is not flexible enough and can only be installed where there is a power cord. Therefore, it is easily found and destroyed by criminals and loses its effect. In addition, the real-time positioning function of wired GPS keeps the device in the signal receiving/transmitting state, and criminals can use GPRS signal jammers/detectors to interfere with the working status of the device or find the installation location of the device.

2. Wireless GPS locator

Advantages: The wireless GPS positioning time is controllable, and the device immediately enters the dormant state after the signal transmission ends. It can largely avoid the interference of GPRS signal jammer and the induction of signal detector, and further improve the anti-dismantling of the equipment. The wireless GPS can be installed without any wiring, so the installation of the wireless GPS locator is not restricted by the line of the vehicle. It can be placed in any position of the vehicle with the help of strong magnetism and Velcro.

Disadvantages: Compared with wired GPS locators, wireless GPS has a single function and cannot locate in real time. The location information displayed by the wireless device is the location information of the last positioning, not the current location information. In addition, the signal of wireless GPS equipment is also slightly worse. Because it is not connected to the car, it cannot detect some state changes of the car, and the timeliness is also poor.

If the battery is not considered, wired GPS is better than wireless GPS. But it is not absolute. In some specific vehicles and scenarios, the owner should choose a GPS device suitable for his vehicle based on its advantages and disadvantages, so that it can get twice the result with half the effort. By comparing the advantages and disadvantages of wired and wireless GPS locators, you can come to Earlink Communication Technology Co., Ltd. to find a GPS locator that suits you!
