Coban - BN-408B

The BN-408B is a portable wireless GPS tracker designed for discreet, long-life mobile asset management and anti-theft protection. ALTAGAMA GPS compatible out of the box, the BN-408B delivers reliable real-time tracking and rich alarm telemetry over 2G/3G/4G networks, making it ideal for fleet management, high-value asset security, and logistics use cases where extended standby and covert mounting matter.

Built for long-term deployments, the BN-408B combines strong magnetic adsorption for easy attachment to vehicle chassis or valuables with a very large 10,000 mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery for extended standby times. The unit reports location, movement and a comprehensive set of alarms to ALTAGAMA GPS using TCP, UDP or SMS, and Model B variants add SOS, external power disconnection alarm and remote immobilization for enhanced anti-theft control and emergency response.

Key Highlights

• ALTAGAMA GPS compatible GPS tracker for real-time tracking and playback across 2G/3G/4G networks.
• Powerful 10,000 mAh rechargeable Li‑ion battery (3.7V) for long standby and low-maintenance operation.
• Strong magnetic adsorption lets you attach the device quickly and discreetly without permanent installation.
• Comprehensive alarm set: tamper (infrared), low battery, movement, shock, overspeed, blind area and geo-fence.
• Model B variant adds SOS alarm, external power disconnection alarm and remote immobilization capabilities.
• Remote voice monitoring for emergency listening and improved situational awareness.
• Flexible reporting via TCP/UDP/SMS and remote configuration for fleet-scale deployments and telemetry integration.

How It Works with ALTAGAMA GPS

When paired with ALTAGAMA GPS, the BN-408B streams location and alarm data into your fleet management and asset-tracking dashboards for real-time visibility and historical playback. ALTAGAMA GPS receives position updates, alarms and status messages over TCP, UDP or SMS and translates them into alerts, reports and automation rules suitable for anti-theft workflows, dispatching and analytics.

• Real-time location and telemetry updates delivered to ALTAGAMA GPS for live tracking and map display.
• Track playback and history for route reconstruction and compliance reporting.
• Geo-fence alerts and blind area alarm notifications to detect unauthorized movement or location loss.
• Low battery, movement, shock and tamper alarms to trigger maintenance or security responses.
• Model B-specific features: SOS alarm, external power disconnection alarm and remote immobilizer commands (when enabled) for anti-theft intervention.
• Remote voice monitoring to assess emergencies; data and audio incidents are available in ALTAGAMA GPS incident logs.
• Integrates into broader telemetry workflows: when combined with vehicle sensors or ALTAGAMA GPS-supported telemetry inputs, data such as ignition and fuel monitoring can be correlated with BN-408B position and alarm events.

Technical Overview

Use Cases

• Fleet anti-theft and immobilization — use Model B remote immobilizer and SOS for rapid response to theft or unauthorized use.
• Long-term logistics and equipment tracking — extended battery life and power-saving modes reduce maintenance for trailers, containers and leased equipment.
• High-value asset protection — magnetic mounting and tamper detection provide discreet monitoring of construction machinery, generators and other valuables.
• Emergency response and incident verification — SOS alarm and remote voice monitoring enable faster, better-informed dispatch decisions.
• Covert asset monitoring for rental fleets and mobile inventory — geo-fence, movement and blind area alarms support loss prevention workflows.

Why Choose This Tracker with ALTAGAMA GPS

The BN-408B is built for organizations that need dependable, ALTAGAMA GPS compatible GPS tracking with minimal installation and long service intervals. Its 10,000 mAh battery and magnet-mount design make it a practical choice for mobile assets and equipment that move infrequently or are difficult to hardwire. Combined with ALTAGAMA GPS, the BN-408B feeds real-time tracking, alarm and historical data into a scalable fleet management platform, enabling telemetry-driven decisions across fuel monitoring, ignition-related workflows and dispatching when external sensors or vehicle harnesses are present.

Choose the BN-408B for a balance of long battery life, covert mounting and flexible reporting (TCP/UDP/SMS). Model B variants bring added anti-theft controls—SOS and remote immobilization—so you can implement proactive recovery and incident workflows in ALTAGAMA GPS. For companies focused on reliable real-time tracking, anti-theft protection and telematics integration, the BN-408B is a straightforward, ALTAGAMA GPS-compatible option that minimizes installation time while maximizing operational visibility.
