2251 Networkfleet has announced the availability of simple one-plug installation for its Networkfleet 4200 low-cost GPS vehicle tracking system. Most GPS tracking systems require wire splicing for installation in light-duty vehicles but the 4200 plugs directly into the OBD-II diagnostic port, making installation quick and easy. The device is designed for fleets that need reliable location tracking but do not require the full engine diagnostics offered by the Networkfleet 3500 wireless fleet management system. The Networkfleet 4200 device can be installed in light, medium and heavy vehicles, and is compatible with both 12V and 24V vehicles.

Using a light-duty harness cable and an adapter for specific vehicle types, both supplied by Networkfleet, the 4200 device can receive power directly from the OBD-II port. The vehicle adapter connects directly to the light-duty harness cable for easy plug-and-play installation.
