PeopleNet Rolls Out Tethered Trailer Tracking

PeopleNet, Chaska, Minn., said Feb. 24 it launched its tethered trailer-tracking system, known as Trailer ID.

Trailer ID is PeopleNet’s first in-house trailer-tracking offering. The tethered system provides visibility only to trailers hooked up to tractors.

PeopleNet said it plans to add other features to Trailer ID, such as tire pressure monitoring and reefer control. The company also said it will continue to offer interfaces to third-party untethered trailer-tracking systems from Air IQ and SkyBitz.
