Samsara Asset Tags provide a flexible way to track and manage high-value tools, equipment, and materials across your operations. These compact, rugged wireless devices use Bluetooth signals detected by nearby Samsara Vehicle Gateways (VGs) and powered Asset Gateways (AGs), allowing you to monitor asset location directly from the Samsara dashboard.
Samsara offers three Asset Tag hardware models, each designed to support different operational needs. While all models enable reliable asset tracking, they vary in key characteristics such as size, battery life, radio range, and advanced locating capabilities.
Because performance can vary based on environmental conditions, gateway density, and how frequently a tag is detected, it’s helpful to compare models based on your specific use case. The comparison table below outlines the differences in hardware and behavior to help you select the right option.
