Problem
Traditional Wi-Fi technology struggles to provide long-range, low-power connectivity required by many Internet of Things (IoT) applications, limiting the scalability and reach of these deployments. Existing solutions often fail to support a high density of connected devices, hindering the potential of large-scale IoT networks.
Solution
Morse Micro addresses these challenges with its Wi-Fi HaLow 802.11ah semiconductor chips, offering a long-range, low-power wireless connectivity solution optimized for IoT. Their technology extends the range of Wi-Fi by up to 10x, enabling coverage over distances exceeding 1 kilometer. The chips are designed for energy efficiency, allowing IoT devices to operate for multiple years on a single battery. Morse Micro's Wi-Fi HaLow supports a high density of devices, connecting over 8,000 devices through a single access point. This combination of range, power efficiency, and scalability makes it ideal for diverse IoT applications across smart homes, smart cities, industrial environments, and enterprise settings. The company's solutions overcome the limitations of traditional Wi-Fi, enabling more robust and expansive IoT deployments.
