Enhanced solutions deliver deeper operational insight through collaborations with Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS), Bendix and MaxonPhillips Connect Expands Connected Trailer Ecosystem with ESS, Bendix and Maxon at TMC 2026Phillips Connect announced new ecosystem partnerships at the 2026 Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition in Nashville, expanding trailer intelligence across roadside safety, brake systems and liftgate operations through collaborations with Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS), Bendix and Maxon.NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phillips Connect today announced new enhancements across three key trailer system categories that expand how fleets manage roadside safety, brake performance and liftgate operations. Introduced at the Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition, the updates strengthen how fleets capture operational intelligence from critical trailer systems and distribute those insights across maintenance, operations and safety teams."Every system on the trailer generates insights that can help fleets operate more safely and efficiently,” said Mark Wallin, general manager and senior vice president of product at Phillips Connect. "Our platform is designed to capture those signals and turn them into actionable insights. By working closely with leading equipment providers, we can also deliver deeper intelligence from systems fleets already rely on across their trailers.”Phillips Connect Roadside Safety IntelligencePhillips Connect introduced new Roadside safety solutions designed to improve visibility and awareness during roadside events.Through a partnership with Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS), the Phillips Connect platform can trigger ESS’s H.E.L.P. DeliverSAFE intelligent roadside hazard technology when a trailer is stopped on the shoulder. When a driver activates the trailer’s hazard lights, the system automatically initiates H.E.L.P. Lighting Alerts, flashing the trailer’s lights in a distinctive high-visibility pattern designed to attract more attention than standard hazard lights. The system also sends real-time shouldered vehicle alerts to approaching motorists through navigation apps and in-dash systems, helping drivers identify roadside hazards earlier and move over more safely.Roadside safety intelligence builds on Phillips Connect’s existing light circuit monitoring technology, extending its functionality to improve roadside awareness and help protect drivers, equipment and freight during roadside events.Phillips Connect Brake System IntelligencePhillips Connect also added system enhancements to its existing brake solutions that provide greater visibility into trailer brake performance and status.When fleets operate trailers equipped with Bendix TABS Advanced brake system electronic control units (ECUs), Phillips Connect can access diagnostic trouble code (DTC) fault reporting and standard formatted data messages. This information includes brake wear, trouble codes and other system data that may help maintenance teams detect developing issues and prioritize service before they escalate.Phillips Connect can provide fleets access to insights from this data that strengthen cultures of safety by enabling fleets to respond more quickly to events such as roll stability activation or braking faults that may require attention.Phillips Connect Liftgate IntelligencePhillips Connect also enhanced its liftgate solutions to provide fleets with improved liftgate performance and usage data.Liftgates are essential to many delivery operations, particularly on routes with frequent stops or locations without loading docks. When fleets operate Maxon liftgates equipped with MAX LINK technology, Phillips Connect can provide fleets with deeper insight into liftgate activity, system health and performance through its partnership with Maxon.This information helps fleets identify potential liftgate issues earlier and avoid delivery disruptions that can occur when liftgate batteries or hydraulic systems stop functioning properly.Expanding the Connected Trailer EcosystemThese enhancements reflect Phillips Connect’s broader strategy to capture operational intelligence from the systems already installed across the trailer.By supporting deeper data visibility from leading equipment and solutions providers, Phillips Connect enables fleets to monitor critical trailer systems while continuing to operate the equipment and technologies they already rely on.Phillips Connect will showcase these technologies at TMC in Nashville, March 16-18. Show attendees can learn more about the company’s smart trailer platform and see the latest innovations in connected trailer intelligence at the Phillips Connect booth 2029.About Phillips ConnectPhillips Connect develops smart trailer technology that helps fleets capture and apply intelligence from across the trailer. Its platform brings together sensors, cameras and integrated systems to provide visibility into trailer operations, equipment health and cargo activity. By turning trailer intelligence into operational insight, Phillips Connect helps fleets improve safety, increase uptime and operate more efficiently.Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Irvine, California, Phillips Connect develops technology that helps fleets monitor trailer systems, identify issues earlier and make better decisions by making trailer intelligence accessible across the fleet.

New JumpStart offering, CargoVision People Detection and Driver Behavior Insights expand trailer intelligence for fleetsPhillips Connect Introduces JumpStart, CargoVision People Detection and Driver Behavior Insights at TMC 2026Phillips Connect is introducing new connected trailer platform enhancements at the 2026 Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition in Nashville, including JumpStart, CargoVision People Detection and Driver Behavior Insights.NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phillips Connect today announced new platform enhancements designed to expand how fleets capture and use trailer intelligence across their operations. Introduced at the Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition, the updates improve visibility into trailer activity, cargo operations and trailer performance while making it easy for fleets to benefit from smart trailer intelligence even if they rely on another provider for GPS location tracking."Track-and-trace GPS units have long been the baseline for trailer visibility, but fleets need more than location to make informed decisions that affect operations, safety, dispatch, compliance and maintenance,” said Mark Wallin, general manager and senior vice president of product at Phillips Connect. "The next generation of connected trailer technology is already here, enabling fleets to capture intelligence from across the trailer and supply those insights to every role in the fleet.”JumpStart Expands Trailer Intelligence Beyond LocationPhillips Connect announced JumpStart, a new offering designed to help fleets quickly begin capturing smart trailer insights beyond basic location tracking.Track-and-trace telematics providers deliver simple trailer GPS location but typically cannot capture operational intelligence from critical trailer systems. Without insight into how equipment is being used and performing, fleets have limited information to support operational, maintenance and safety decisions.Even if fleets are capturing location data from another provider, JumpStart provides easy access to smart trailer insights through six entry points: automated TrailerID, cargo intelligence, brake systems, tire health, liftgate performance and temperature monitoring. Fleets can start with any of these systems and expand over time as they add more smart trailer insights.Phillips Connect CargoVision Adds People Detection Inside the TrailerPhillips Connect introduced People Detection, a new enhancement to its CargoVision platform that identifies when individuals enter or exit the trailer cargo area. The enhancement gives fleets greater awareness of activity inside the trailer during loading, unloading and other operations. CargoVision with People Detection also helps fleets detect unauthorized access, identify potential cargo theft and safety risks, and better understand how trailers are being used throughout the day.Driver Behavior Insights Provide Visibility into How Trailers Are OperatedPhillips Connect also added Driver Behavior Insights to its platform, helping fleets understand how their trailers are being operated on the road. Using smart sensor data from the trailer, the Phillips Connect platform detects events such as harsh braking, aggressive acceleration and sharp cornering. These insights provide visibility into driver behavior even when trailers are being pulled by third-party tractors.This visibility is particularly valuable for fleets that rely on leased equipment, independent carriers or drop-and-hook operations, where trailer owners may not have direct access to tractor telematics. By identifying unsafe operating patterns earlier, fleets can better protect cargo, equipment and their brand on the road.Building the Next Generation of Trailer IntelligenceThese innovations reflect Phillips Connect’s broader strategy to capture operational insights from across the trailer and make them easier for fleets to use in their daily operations.By combining sensor data, visual intelligence and behavioral insights within a single platform, fleets can move beyond simple location tracking to gain a deeper understanding of how trailers are being used, maintained and operated across their networks.Phillips Connect will showcase these technologies at TMC in Nashville, March 16-18.
