Strategic Partnership: AsiaRF X Morse Micro
Strategic Partnership: AsiaRF X Morse Micro
In traditional IoT wireless communication, there’s a persistent trade-off between speed and range. Lower frequency communications result in narrower bandwidths and speed limits of tens of megabits per second. While adequate for many IoT applications, this limits the pursuit of higher speeds by Wi-Fi chip providers, who resort to higher frequencies, such as those supported by Wi-Fi 6E. These higher speeds, however, are achievable only within ashort range, proving sub-optimal for IoT applications.
AsiaRF’s partner, Morse Micro, has developed a reliable Wi-Fi solutionfor IoT devices using lower frequencies. With Morse Micro’s Wi-Fi HaLow technology, users can enjoy transmission speeds of up to 32 megabits per second, surpassing other Wi-Fi HaLow certified solutions on the market. This high speed enables seamless streaming, multiple real-time camera connections, and support for thousands of low-power devices.Additionally, Morse Micro’s technology offers an impressive connectionrange of up to one kilometer, ten times that of traditional Wi-Fi. It canachieve reliable connections up to one kilometer, with the range extending to 500 meters in congested areas like Las Vegas and up to 15 kilometers in optimal conditions like Joshua Tree National Park.The integration of Morse Micro’s technology enhances AsiaRF’s Wi-Fi HaLow IoT Solution Kit, breaking the trade-off between speed and
range. This significant advancement reinforces the robustness and adaptability of AsiaRF’s IoT devices solution kit to meet the diverse demands of IoT applications.
