Concurrent Multiprotocol: Simplifying Design Choices in the Age of Wireless Coexistence
We’re surrounded by connected devices, and their conveniences continue to grow more impressive. With more devices communicating wirelessly than ever before, wireless coexistence is no longer optional. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Thread all compete in the 2.4 GHz band, creating interference and reliability challenges. How do manufacturers design devices that support multiple protocols without compromising performance or usability?
The answer is concurrent multiprotocol.
Silicon Labs’ Concurrent Multiprotocol (CMP) technology enables devices to run multiple wireless protocols—like Zigbee and Thread—simultaneously on a single radio. Our highest performance EFR32MG26 Series 2 device and our newest SiMG301 Series 3 SoCs that sets the bar for innovation with enhanced memory, sensitivity, and security make seamless multi-protocol coexistence a reality and offers developers:
- Simplified design and fewer SKUs
- Future-proof support for Matter and new standards
- Reliable, low-latency performance even in dense networks
In this whitepaper, discover how concurrent multiprotocol helps manufacturers and developers build interoperable, efficient, and future-ready IoT devices.
