Yes. Mtrack has three GPS capable units, MtrackPro Wireless, the MtrackPro Wired and the MtrackFleet unit. The MtrackPro Wireless as the name implies is totally wireless and uses its own internal lithium battery as power supply. All antennas are also encased within the unit. This unit uses a sleep cycle configuration to conserve battery power. The MtrackPro Wired and the MtrackFleet units have external wiring and this is used to draw power from an external power source (vehicles 12V or 24V battery) to charge the internal back-up battery in the unit.
