AsiaRF, a leading wireless connectivity solutions company, today introduced the world’s first Wi-Fi CERTIFIED HaLow™ iot gateway, powered by Morse Microelectronics’ MM6108 Wi-Fi HaLow SoC. The new gateway is compliant with the IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi HaLow standard and is the industry’s first gateway to provide reliable, low-power and long-distance connectivity for iot networks. This innovation will play an important role in the global iot ecosystem, providing more robust, long-distance, and energy efficient connectivity for iot devices worldwide.
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED HaLow, as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance IEEE 802.11ah specification, operates in wireless spectrum below 1GHz. This sub-GHz connectivity provides AsiaRF iot gateways with unparalleled advantages, such as extended connection range and optimized power efficiency, beyond the limitations of traditional iot connectivity.
Paul Lai, CEO of AsiaRF, said: “We are delighted to be the first to deliver a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED HaLow iot gateway to the global market. This product will significantly improve the connectivity of the global Internet of Things, and we are excited to work with a partner like Morse Microelectronics to drive this change.”
By combining the low-power, long-range benefits of Wi-Fi HaLow with the superior RF performance of the Morse Microelectronics MM6108 SoC, the AsiaRF iot Gateway will set a new benchmark for iot connectivity solutions. The collaboration between AsiaRF and Morse Microelectronics will enable businesses and consumers to fully harness the potential of the Internet of Things to improve the way people live, work and communicate around the world. The launch of the AsiaRF Wi-Fi CERTIFIED HaLow iot Gateway marks the beginning of a promising new era in iot technology, where seamless connectivity, power efficiency and extended range are no longer luxuries but standard gateway features.
Michael De Nil, co-founder and CEO of Morse Microelectronics, said: “Together, Morse Microelectronics and AsiaRF are committed to innovating and bringing Wi-Fi HaLow to market. The new AsiaRF iot Gateway demonstrates the many benefits of using Morse Microelectronics’ Wi-Fi HaLow SoC technology for iot connectivity, and we are excited to see the product available this year.”
