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.
