Fast, Reliable Installation

Designed for construction, mining, and off-road fleets, GO Rugged installs easily and withstands the toughest job sites.

Install externally with a secure mount and sealed harness. Route cabling away from pinch points and confirm first reports and LEDs before leaving the site. Where coverage is limited, consider satellite add-ons for critical updates.
