EnOcean Announces 2.4GHz Portfolio

EnOcean has introduced a self-powered product family for wireless communication on the 2.4GHz frequency band. With the 2.4GHz offering, OEMs can now realize battery-less switch applications for worldwide use with system such as ZigBee.

The portfolio includes:

• PTM 215ZE – a 2.4 GHz radio pushbutton transmitter module is mechanically compatible with the industry standard PTM 21x module form factor (sub-1 GHz) to ensure an easy integration into a wide range of switch designs, allowing efficient migration paths.
• PTM 535Z – this 2.4 GHz radio transmitter module, combined with the ECO 200 energy converter, has a smaller form factor than the PTM 215ZE and is suitable for custom switch designs in industrial, consumer and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. 3D data, provided together with the technical data sheet, facilitates the prototyping of various housings.
• TCM 515Z – the 2.4GHz radio transceiver with ESP3 interface enables quick integration of EnOcean 2.4 GHz solutions into actuators, gateways and controllers.

“With 2.4GHz, we complement our portfolio in sub-1GHz for building automation and smart home with a worldwide frequency that addresses the desire of global players to employ self-powered wireless sensors for different Internet of Things applications,” says Wald Siskens, CEO of EnOcean. “It also proves that the capabilities of our kinetic energy harvesting technology can run any kind of ultra-low power radio.”
