WID320G Description
Core Purpose
The WID320G is a compact BLE beacon built for asset tracking and status awareness in places where equipment may move, tilt, or be exposed to outdoor conditions. It is designed to broadcast location-related beacon signals while also detecting physical movement events through its built-in accelerometer.
Its small body and simple mounting options make it easier to place on tools, mobile assets, containers, and other equipment without adding much bulk. The datasheet also highlights NFC support, which helps simplify setup and day-to-day handling.
Connectivity and Communication
The device uses BLE 5.1, which supports stable short-range beacon communication for tracking and asset management use cases. It also supports both iBeacon and Eddystone, making it easier to fit into different beacon-based systems.
NFC is included for parameter configuration and power control. In practice, this means setup can be faster and more convenient during installation, maintenance, or batch deployment.
Monitoring and Detection Capabilities
A built-in 3-axis accelerometer allows the WID320G to detect motion, tilt, crash, and fall events. This gives the beacon a more active role than simple broadcasting, because it can help identify changes in how an asset is being handled or moved.
That makes it useful in situations where knowing that an item moved is just as important as knowing where it is. It can support workflows that depend on movement awareness, incident detection, or basic condition monitoring.
Power and Environmental Suitability
The WID320G uses a 1000mAh CR2477 battery and is designed for long operating life, with the datasheet listing more than 4 years under default settings and shorter life when all sensors are active. This gives users flexibility to balance battery life against how much sensing activity they need.
It is also built for demanding environments, with an IP67 waterproof rating and an operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C. Combined with its small size, this makes it suitable for indoor and outdoor deployments where space is limited and exposure is a concern.
