Upgrade Your Zubie 3G Device for Free
This year, Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile will shutter their older 3G networks to prioritize carrier network upgrades. Older Zubie devices that rely on these networks to communicate data from the device to the dashboard will no longer work when the 3G networks are closed.
We don’t want our customers to lose out on any of the valuable data they’ve come to rely on. Read on to learn about the network changes and how to upgrade your outdated devices.
Modernizing to 4G networks will give you more reliable and more efficient data communication to the world of telematics. But this change comes with its challenges. If you are utilizing older 3G devices, you will no longer have access to the data provided by the Zubie device previously.
Fortunately, Zubie has 4G devices ready to ship to replace your 3G devices. Minimize downtime by upgrading your Zubie device to the 4G device, free of charge! Learn more about identifying your devices below.
