Quectel Wireless Solutions and Amazon Sidewalk have announced a partnership to bring advanced connectivity solutions to customers. Amazon Sidewalk is a secure, low-bandwidth, long-range network for IoT devices.
The Quectel KG100S module and a portfolio of matching antennas will be fully compatible with Amazon Sidewalk, making launching and maintaining connected IoT devices and solutions quicker, easier, and more cost effective. It is designed to provide persistent connectivity to devices that are outside the range of typical home IoT networks.
The KG100S is a low-power, cost-effective module in an LGA form factor which is developed specially to support Amazon Sidewalk applications. It is equipped with a built-in SX1262 transceiver supporting LoRa and FSK, and a high-performance, energy-friendly Silicon Labs EFR32BG21B microcontroller with a 2,4 GHz radio transceiver for Bluetooth LE 5.1 and 80 MHz ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller core.
With a small size of 15 x 15 x 2,25 mm, and with 96 KB of RAM and 1 MB Flash, the module has a 3,3 V and 1,8 V power supply and is suitable for connecting low data rate applications such as sensor networks and smart home devices.
Quectel also offers a portfolio of high-performing embedded and external antennas to support the Sidewalk designs and devices. By bundling module and antennas, device OEMs can ensure cost-effective devices with fast-time-to-market.
Amazon Sidewalk modules also allow IoT devices to automatically connect and have no cost to transmit messages to Amazon Sidewalk, which removes the need for manual onboarding or set up to establish/maintain a connection. By doing this, Amazon Sidewalk brings connectivity to everyday objects both inside and outside the home – kitchen appliances, gas sensors, lawn sprinklers, keys, rubbish bins, pet trackers, streetlights – instantly connected out-of-the-box through Amazon Sidewalk, fulfilling the promise of a connected world.
