Vertical Solution

Ruggedised smartphones for logistics, trucking and fleet operators

Trucking companies, last-mile carriers and freight operators deploy ruggedised smartphones to drivers for TMS access, electronic logging, route navigation and proof-of-delivery capture. Solaris Wireless supplies fleet-grade handsets in bulk with MDM enrolment, pre-installed TMS apps, and direct-to-terminal fulfilment.

Why logistics handset procurement requires a specialist

Fleet operators cannot afford a 30-day deployment cycle for a driver handset. The truck has to roll. Yet generic device suppliers ship sealed retail boxes that require IT staff at the terminal to configure each unit, install the TMS, validate the ELD certification and pair the SIM. Multiplied across 500 drivers, that's weeks of delay and tens of thousands in staging cost.

Solaris Wireless ships handsets pre-configured. The driver picks up the phone at terminal check-in, signs the asset receipt, and the device is on the network and inside the TMS within 60 seconds of power-on.

How Solaris handles fleet deployments

We register your MDM tenant (Samsara, SOTI, Workspace ONE) so devices auto-enrol on first power-on. We pre-install your TMS, your ELD client, and any custom dispatch app you use. We pair each handset to a SIM from your carrier (T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T) and asset-tag the unit with your fleet number.

For replacement cycles, Solaris maintains a dedicated repair-and-swap pipeline. A driver damages a handset; the terminal manager triggers a swap from your reserve pool; we re-provision the damaged unit and ship a replacement to the reserve pool. Your fleet never loses a productive day to device IT.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from buyers

What ELD platforms does Solaris pre-install?

Solaris pre-installs Samsara Driver, KeepTruckin, Omnitracs One, Trimble TMW, Project44 and McLeod LoadMaster. We can also load custom-built ELD or TMS clients you provide as APK or MDM-pushed app.

Are the devices ruggedised enough for in-cab use?

We supply IP68-rated, drop-tested-to-MIL-STD-810H handsets including Sonim XP10, Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, Kyocera DuraForce Ultra, and Cat S62. Glove-touchscreen and direct-sunlight readability are standard.

Can devices be pre-paired to specific drivers or trucks?

Yes. Each device is asset-tagged to a fleet number and, if you provide the assignment list, pre-loaded with the driver's profile in your TMS so they sign in once and the device is paired.

What carriers does Solaris support for fleet SIMs?

Solaris supplies devices with SIMs from T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, Vodafone, EE and most major Tier-1 carriers globally. We can also ship unlocked devices for fleets that manage their own SIM pool.
