Key features

Why choose the FTC880

Sealed for jet washing and steam

IP69Kpressure wash rated

Dust-tight and sealed against high-pressure water and steam, so it can sit on the battery of a tipper, a van or a machine that gets cleaned hard.

With the backup battery fitted, Teltonika rates operation at 0 °C to +40 °C, narrower than the bare electronics.

FTC880

Two wires to the battery terminals

2wires to fit it

Tape on the back holds it to the top of the battery; red goes to positive and black to negative or the chassis. Ignition comes from battery voltage and movement, so there is no ignition wire to find.

Teltonika specifies connection by qualified personnel. Power and ground only: no inputs, outputs or immobiliser.

A tighter GNSS fix

< 1.8 mposition accuracy

It can track up to 41 satellites at once across GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, which helps it place stops correctly at drops and on site.

Crash, driving and tamper alerts

320 mAhbackup battery

Crash detection with optional crash trace, eco driving, over-speeding and idling, plus towing, unplug and jamming alerts, with no extra hardware. The 320 mAh backup battery lets it send an alert if the power is cut.

Plain 4G, no Bluetooth

4GLTE Cat 1, EU version

This is the EU LTE Cat 1 build, so it runs on UK 4G with 2G only as a fallback. It has no Bluetooth radio, so EYE Sensors and EYE Beacons cannot be paired with it.

Need Bluetooth sensors or dead reckoning? The FTC887 adds both.

Product details

Unlocked Teltonika FTC880 4G battery-mounted GPS tracker with no SIM card

This listing is for a new unlocked Teltonika FTC880, order code FTC880AAU901, the EU 4G LTE Cat 1 version of Teltonika's IP69K battery-mounted tracker. It is the straightforward sibling of the FTC887, without Bluetooth or dead reckoning. It is sold as hardware only, with no SIM card supplied and no Fleetalyse platform lock.

Why choose the FTC880

  • Two wires to the battery. Double-sided tape holds it on top of the vehicle battery and the two wires go straight to the terminals. It works out ignition from battery voltage and movement, so there is no ignition wire to trace. Teltonika specifies connection by qualified personnel.
  • IP69K protection. Rated against dust, high-pressure water jets and steam cleaning, so pressure-washed vans and plant are no problem for the casing. With the backup battery fitted, Teltonika rates operation at 0 °C to +40 °C, so check the conditions before fitting it in a very hot engine bay or somewhere that freezes.
  • Sharper GNSS. A 75-channel L1 receiver tracks GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, with up to 41 satellites in view and position accuracy under 1.8 m CEP.
  • 4G on the UK bands. The EU LTE Cat 1 version covers the main UK bands, with 2G fallback, so it keeps reporting after the UK 2G switch-off, which the networks have scheduled from 2029.
  • Crash and driving data. Crash detection with optional crash trace sits alongside eco driving, over-speeding, excessive idling and trip and odometer reporting.
  • Tamper alerts. Unplug, towing and network jamming detection, with a 320 mAh backup battery to report when the supply is cut.
  • Low drain on a standing vehicle. Its lowest sleep mode, Power Off Sleep, draws under 0.601 mA at 12 V, so it puts little load on the battery of a vehicle or machine that stands for long periods.
  • Know what it leaves out. There is no Bluetooth, so it cannot pair EYE Sensors or EYE Beacons, and there are no inputs, outputs or CAN connection, so no immobiliser. It sits under the bonnet, visible to anyone who opens it. Choose the FTC887 if you need Bluetooth or dead reckoning.

What you get

  • New unlocked Teltonika FTC880, EU 4G version (order code FTC880AAU901), with Teltonika factory firmware.
  • No SIM card included: use your own compatible IoT, M2M or data Nano-SIM.
  • No Fleetalyse subscription is included or required to buy this hardware.
  • Configure the APN and server with the Teltonika Configuration Tool (Windows 10/11) over USB-C, by SMS, or remotely with FOTA WEB. It uses Teltonika's newer configuration tool, not the classic Configurator.
  • Price shown includes UK VAT where applicable; non-UK checkout removes UK VAT where applicable and adds international postage.

Choose this unlocked no-SIM version when you want to configure the APN, SIM provider and tracking platform yourself. The FTC880 is also supported on the Fleetalyse tracking platform, so you can move it to Fleetalyse later with bring-your-own-device.

Before you order

Unlocked Teltonika FTC880 GPS Tracker - No SIM Card: questions buyers ask

How much is the unlocked FTC880?

£64.99 inc VAT (£54.16 ex VAT) with free UK delivery. That is the hardware only: no SIM, no subscription and no lock to any platform.

What does "unlocked" mean here?

The tracker ships with Teltonika factory firmware and default settings, not configured for Fleetalyse. You fit your own IoT or M2M SIM, set the server and APN with Teltonika's configuration tool, and point it at whichever telematics platform you use. If you later want it on Fleetalyse, bring-your-own-device takes it from £5.99 a month.

Which SIM card do I need?

Any IoT/M2M SIM with an APN you can set. If you would rather not shop around, add the Fleetalyse IoT SIM on this page: it comes as a 3-in-1 card with roaming in up to 135 countries.

Is the FTC880 4G?

Yes. This is the EU version of the FTC880: 4G LTE Cat 1 with 2G fallback, and its LTE bands cover the main UK networks, so it keeps working after the UK 2G switch-off, which the networks have scheduled from 2029.

How is it installed?

With external power disconnected, open the side cover, fit a Nano-SIM and clip the cover fully shut; once closed it needs plastic pry tools to reopen. Stick the unit on top of the vehicle battery with the tape on its back, GNSS antenna and LEDs facing up, then connect the red wire to the positive terminal and the black wire to the negative terminal or the chassis. There is no other wiring. Teltonika's safety instructions say only qualified personnel should connect it, so use a fitter or someone competent with vehicle battery work.

What is the difference between the FTC880 and the FTC887?

Both are IP69K, 4G LTE Cat 1 trackers that mount on the vehicle battery with two wires. The FTC880 has no Bluetooth, so it cannot pair EYE Sensors or EYE Beacons, and it has no dead reckoning. Choose the FTC887 if you need either; the FTC880 covers tracking, driving events and crash alerts.

Can the FTC880 immobilise the vehicle?

No. It has power and ground connections only, with no digital outputs, so it cannot drive an immobiliser relay. Ignition is detected from battery voltage and the accelerometer instead of an ignition wire.

Does the FTC880 split business and private trips?

It reports trips and an odometer worked out from its own GNSS data; with only power and ground connections it cannot read the vehicle's odometer. Teltonika's FTC880 wiki also documents a Private/Business mode that can follow a weekly schedule, with GNSS masking and odometer stop. It is not in the datasheet, so check it on your firmware and tracking platform before relying on it.

Is there a discount for buying more than one?

Yes, automatically at the basket: 3% off 3+, 5% off 5+, 10% off 10+ units. The discount applies to the hardware in the same order, and it stacks with a referral or promotional code.

How quickly will it arrive?

UK delivery is free and goes by Royal Mail 24. Orders placed before 2pm Monday to Friday are normally dispatched the next working day, and Royal Mail 24 usually arrives the working day after that, so most UK orders land within two working days. Royal Mail aims at next-day delivery rather than guaranteeing it. Full details are on our delivery page.

What warranty does it carry, and what if it is not right for us?

Every unit is new, boxed Teltonika stock with the manufacturer's 24-month warranty. Consumers have 14 days to return an unused device under our returns policy, and business customers can talk to us before ordering if they want to check fit on one vehicle first.
