Description

The IOX-BT monitors Bluetooth® proximity beacons with public MAC addresses and supports select sensor-enabled beacons. When attached to tools and equipment, these beacons help increase asset utilization, reduce misplaced equipment, boost productivity, lower operational costs, and improve on-time delivery. The current version of IOX-BT was introduced in February 2025. Details on the legacy IOX-BT product can be found in the documentation section.
