T-box is a connected-car-standard terminal that delivers multiple online applications including vehicle remote monitoring, remote control, safety monitoring & warning and remote diagnosis via 4G remote wireless communication, GPS satellite positioning, acceleration sensing and CAN communication.
T-box can be divided into OEM and AM. Regarding OEM, T-box makers provide related services via OEM: has T-box directly connected with CAN Bus, ensure car-grade system, offer complete power supply design and ensure reliability. As to AM, T-box is plugged into car diagnostic port and can replace OBD. In addition, T-box can also be installed by changing original wiring, a way that may bring greater safety risks.
Global passenger-car OEM T-box market will swell from USD300 million in 2016 to USD1.5 billion in 2020 at a CAGR of 49.53%. When it comes specifically to China, the passenger-car OEM T-box market is expected to be RMB2.9 billion in 2020. As many carmakers consider “going intelligent & connected” as the direction of future development, T-box installations have increased rapidly.
