    Connection options

    The GO Focus Plus is compatible with either a GO device or OEM telematics (where telematics comes from the vehicle itself). Please note that the quality of the telematics data is inferior without a GO device.

    For direct vehicle connections, a power cable is required. To connect to a GO device, a GO Focus Plus Smart Cable is required.

    Option 1: GO Focus Plus and GO device

    The GO Focus Plus Smart Cable enables the GO Focus Plus to seamlessly connect to a Geotab GO9 or GO9 RUGGED. The GO Focus Plus Smart Cable supports a broad range of topologies of use cases.

    GO Focus Plus Smart Cable specifications

    GO Devices supply a maximum power output of 2.5A at 12V (or 1.25A at 24V) to the IOX BUS. Since the GO Focus Plus consumes 1A at 12V, the total current draw for all other connected IOX devices must not exceed 1.5A.

    The total cable length must not exceed 5m / 16ft. The GO Focus Plus must be the last device in the IOX daisy chain.

    document Image

    The cable provides a direct connection between the two devices, the GO Focus Plus and the Geotab GO9.

    The total cable length is 3 m / 10 ft, making this solution suitable for most cars and vans.

    GO9 with Extension Cable

    An extension cable is suitable for larger vehicles and increases the cable run by 5 m / 16ft.

    The GO9 connects to an extension cable which connects to the GO Focus Plus Smart Cable. The GO Focus Plus Smart Cable is then connected to the GO Focus Plus.


    Larger vehicles and vehicles with a Geotab GO9 positioned further from the windshield (e.g., Teslas) need a longer cable.

    The Geotab IOX Extension Cable offers a 2 m / 6 ft extension between the GO Focus Plus and the Geotab GO9. The Geotab IOX Extension Cable allows for a 5 m / 16 ft cable run.

    Option 2: GO Focus Plus and OEM Telematics

    GO Focus Plus supports OEM telematics (i.e., telematics comes from the vehicle itself; there is no GO device in the vehicle). Please note that the quality of the telematics data is inferior without a GO Device. You need to purchase one of these two cables to connect your GO Focus Plus to an OEM Video Telematics-enabled vehicle (without a GO Device).

    3-Wire Power Cable

    The GO Focus Plus connects to the 3-Wire Power Cable which connects to the vehicle’s fuse box.

    The GO Focus Plus - 3-Wire Power Cable (HRN-IOXGFP-3W) needs to be purchased separately.

    Important safety information and Limitations of Use

    For the latest version of Limitations of Use, please visit: https://gtb.link/k6Fp0w.

    WARNING! Your in-vehicle devices must be kept clear of debris, water, and other environmental contaminants. Failure to do so may result in units malfunctioning or short-circuiting that can lead to a fire hazard or vehicle damage or serious injury.

    NOTICE: This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Configuration, servicing, and repairs must only be made by an authorized reseller or installer. Unauthorized servicing of these products will void your product warranty.

    WARNING! Do not attempt to install, configure, or remove any product from any vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or otherwise in operation. All installation, configuration, or removal must be done only in stationary vehicles which are securely parked. Attempting to service units while being operated could result in malfunctions or accidents, leading to death or serious personal injury.

    WARNING! If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning light illuminates on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control, and serious injury.

    WARNING! Do not attempt to remove the devices from the vehicle in which they are originally installed for installation in another vehicle. Not all vehicles share compatibility, and doing so may result in unexpected interactions with your vehicle, including sudden loss of power or shutdown of the vehicle’s engine while in operation or cause your vehicle to operate poorly or erratically and cause death or serious injury and/or vehicle damage.
