(BUSINESS
WIRE) -- Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global IoT solutions provider,
announced the launch of the FLM263D standalone Wi-Fi module that
supports Alexa Connect Kit (ACK) SDK for Matter, enabling IoT devices to
connect seamlessly with Matter compliant controllers including Amazon
Alexa, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings, and Apple HomeKit.
Matter
stands as a pivotal standard in smart home communication, tackling the
persistent challenges of compatibility and fragmentation within the
sector by enabling direct communication between smart devices. Governed
by the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), Matter devices undergo a
stringent certification process to ensure secure, reliable, and
universally interoperable connections. Adherence to this certification
is paramount for all Matter-compliant products, fostering a unified
communication framework and enhancing user experiences.
“We
created ACK to make it simpler for device makers to build smart home
devices with a fully-managed service without having deep expertise in
multiple wireless protocols, complex cloud connectivity, and the
necessary maintenance of cloud infrastructure. We are excited about this
launch because Quectel’s FLM263D adds to ACK's portfolio of available
solutions and offers more choices for device makers,” says Ben McInnis,
Director, Smart Home, Amazon.
“Revolutionizing connectivity in
the smart home landscape, our latest FLM263D module sets a new standard
for seamless integration,” commented Norbert Muhrer, President and CSO,
Quectel Wireless Solutions. “It also empowers developers with robust
support for the ACK SDK for Matter, ensuring unparalleled
interoperability and innovation in the IoT ecosystem.”
The
FLM263D module is a 2.4GHz single band Wi-Fi 6 module, featuring a
high-performance processor with a frequency of up to 320MHz. This
innovative module boasts support for IEEE 802.11b/g/n/ax protocol and
BLE 5.2, paired with built-in 512KB SRAM and 4MB flash for optimal
performance. Furthermore, it meets rigorous security standards,
including secure boot and mbed TLS encryption, ensuring robust
protection for connected devices.
The FLM263D offers support for
device certifications such as Works with Alexa (WWA) and features such
as Matter Simple Setup (MSS). MSS allows end-users to seamlessly connect
Matter-compliant smart home devices to Alexa with zero-touch setup,
while WWA instils consumer confidence when buying on Amazon.
FLM263D
offers five GPIO interfaces that can alternatively function as PWM or
I2C communication channels. Designed with an LCC form factor, built-in
PCB antenna, measuring a mere 17.3mm × 15.0mm × 2.8mm, and with an
operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, 3.0~3.6V power supply,
the FLM263D is perfectly suited for smart lighting applications,
especially smart bulbs.
Additional modules will be rolled out
very soon to expand the scope of Quectel offerings to include smart
switches, smart plugs, and other smart household applications.
