Wireless Modules

Plextek has enabled many companies to add wireless connectivity into innovative new products.

"Wireless Everywhere" and "The Internet of Things"

Plextek is able help clients rapidly add wireless connectivity into products. We have wide experience of off the shelf radio modules for technologies such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiFi/802.11, GSM/GPRS and 3G.

Plextek offers a low risk route for companies with no wireless expertise to add wireless connectivity into their products. Plextek is often able to help clients save large amounts of time and money as well as reducing the implementation risks compared to them undertaking this type of design work themselves.

When two or more wireless standards are implemented in the same product it is important to consider electromagnetic compatibility issues.  In order to achieve this Plextek operates its own pre-conformance testing facility to ensure that products are properly evaluated as early as possible in the development process.

Example Projects

• Plextek has integrated Bluetooth and other short-range transceiver modules into products as diverse as fabric keyboards, wireless headsets, multi-media systems, and industrial sensor systems.

• Plextek has developed wireless reference designs for semiconductor companies wishing to enable their customers to achieve time to market advantages. These modules have enabled manufacturers with little knowledge of wireless systems to develop innovative products and enter new markets that they wouldn't otherwise have been able to address.
