I recently started using GAO RFID’s latest BLE gateways and beacons, and they’ve completely transformed how we handle asset tracking and facility monitoring. The gateways offer incredible coverage — we’re seeing solid indoor range around 900 feet and up to 5000 feet outdoors, which has made them perfect for both our warehouse and yard operations. They integrate smoothly with our existing IoT setup, and the multiple power options (including PoE and solar) made installation way easier and cheaper than expected.

The beacons are another highlight. They’re tiny — just 1.5 mm thick and super lightweight — but tough enough to handle our rough environments. What impressed me most is the battery life: up to 10 years on a single battery. That alone has cut down our maintenance efforts significantly.

Whether it’s logistics, inventory, or smart building monitoring, these BLE solutions have proven reliable and efficient. GAO RFID really nailed it with this product line — easy setup, long range, and practically no upkeep. Highly recommend for anyone in need of scalable BLE tracking.
