MM8108-RD17 Reference Design: Driverless USB dongle reference design that brings Wi-Fi HaLow connectivity to a broad range of devices, including industrial computers, robotics, POS terminals, tablets and smartphones.
Based on Morse Micro’s market leading MM8108 SoC, both of the Morse Micro Wi-Fi HaLow USB Dongles will enable developers to activate Wi-Fi HaLow on many existing devices. Given that Wi-Fi HaLow networks provide native IP connectivity at ranges up to one kilometer, this opens up an exciting range of new possibilities.
The MM8108-RD09 Reference Design provides native Wi-Fi HaLow connectivity to a range of devices including access points (AP) and station (STA) products. OpenWRT drivers are available to enable Wi-Fi HaLow functionality on existing routers and APs with a USB interface. For client devices, native Windows and Linux drivers are available, as well as a MacOS application, which allows for users to easily connect to Wi-Fi HaLow networks, the same as one would for traditional Wi-Fi networks.
