Geotab® GO9+TM — Expandable Telematics Device with Wi-Fi
Hotspot
GO9+ device
Geotab's GO9+ telematics device builds on the class-leading GO9 with the added benefit of an on-board Wi-Fi hotspot. Similar to
the GO9®, the GO9+ 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+ accurately recreates vehicle trips and analyzes incidents. Improve fleet
safety and performance. The GO9+ relays in-vehicle alerts to notify drivers of infractions in real-time and delivers live driver
coaching — with hardware Add-Ons — for improved on-road performance. The GO9+ 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:
• GO™ 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).

Upon reaching your monthly limit, and without warning, you may lose access to hotspot data. Geotab will not be responsible or liable for any losses or damages arising from the disconnection of hotspot data once the monthly data usage limit is exceeded.
  • Page 10 Thermal mitigation details (device response to different temperatures) The GO9+ offers much more cellular data access as compared to the GO9 device. As such, it includes a much more powerful CAT4 cellular modem that is capable of providing quick network speeds for Telematics and Wi-Fi data. Since the internal temperature of the device can affect device performance, the mitigation logic below is used to protect against any overheating scenarios.
