AUSTIN, Texas – June 9, 2021 – Silicon Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB), a leading provider of silicon, software, and solutions for a smarter, more connected world, today announced the release of a combined hardware and software solution for large-scale mesh networks in partnership with IoT leader Wirepas. Wirepas Massive – a unique, scalable, and cost-effective solution that connects and localizes sensors, tags, and luminaires – is now available on Silicon Labs' EFR32BG21 (BG21) and EFR32BG22 (BG22) modules and SoCs.
“When you fuse the scalability of our Massive with the ultra-low-power of Silicon Labs' BG21 and BG22 solutions, the possibilities become endless,” stated Teppo Hemiä, CEO of Wirepas. “The unparalleled combination opens the door for a variety of use cases that transcend asset tracking and extend to connected lighting, smart energy, and – consequently – sustainability.”
Powered by BG21 and BG22 Bluetooth modules and SoCs, Wirepas Massive delivers flexible IoT deployments to offer the following benefits across industries:
1. mesh installations scalability
2. high reliability and interference tolerance in a variety of environments for large scale lighting control systems and preventive maintenance
3. goods and assets tracking across the supply chain with embedded high-density inventory
4. battery-operated infrastructure to monitor buildings and track assets
The power of the companies' collaboration becomes most apparent in the deployment of Wirepas Massive for end-to-end logistics, as the ultra-low-power and affordability of Silicon Labs’ BG22 offer logistics players a unique system for pallet and goods tracking throughout the supply chain. The solution also makes it possible to connect access control, smart lighting, and sensors to a single network – all to power smart buildings.
“Silicon Labs portfolio of wireless products is designed to meet the most demanding IoT applications with industry-leading security and field-proven reliable wireless performance, all delivered in an optimized SoC,” said Ross Sabolcik, vice president and general manager, Industrial & Commercial IoT, Silicon Labs. “We've had a long-standing partnership with Wirepas to help them deliver large-scale mesh networks for demanding professional installations.
