MTB09 & MTB10 Super-Tiny Asset Tag
Ultra-compact Bluetooth® Low Energy asset tags (smaller than a coin), designed for large-scale identification and management of everyday operational assets. Aimed at routine management scenarios, they offer a simple and reliable way to establish asset presence and identity on tools, documents, containers and light equipment across warehousing, manufacturing, retail and office environments. They were designed with scalability, ease of deployment and compatibility with existing systems in mind, using standard BLE broadcasting to fit into workflows already in place without adding operational complexity.
The MTB09 prioritizes long-term runtime and low maintenance; the MTB10 prioritizes an ultra-compact size and reduced weight for flexible short/medium-term deployments and fast rollouts.
Choose the MTB09 when the priority is runtime (up to 3.5 years) and less maintenance. Choose the MTB10 when the priority is an even thinner and lighter form factor, for fast short/medium-term rollouts (up to 1.2 years of battery).
Highlights
- Smaller than a one-dollar coin (coin-sized design for assets with limited space)
- Instant pull-tab activation
- Standard Bluetooth® LE broadcasting (easy integration with existing systems)
- Designed for high-volume assets (large-scale deployment)
- Consistent behavior and simplified activation for a reliable rollout
- Battery sized per scenario: MTB09 up to 3.5 years; MTB10 ultra-compact up to 1.2 years
- Password protection, with reset through the configuration app
