u-blox MAYA-W2 Tri-Radio Modules

Wi-Fi 6 • Bluetooth® 5.3 • 802.15.4

Based on NXP’s IW611/IW612 chip, u-blox’s MAYA-W2 tri-radio modules meet the demand of industrial IoT applications–offering impressive Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth® 5.3, and IEEE 802.15.4 radio short-range connectivity and support for Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) audio. MAYA-W2 makes migration from Wi-Fi 4 a breeze supporting a seamless transition along with a future-proof design.

Measuring at only 10.4 x 14.3mm, the MAYA-W2 is one of the most compact Wi-Fi 6 dual-band SMD modules on the market. Encompassing a wide range of communication standards, the MAYA-W2 comes equipped with secure boot and secure OTP features for optimal device and data security. Additionally, the impressive tri-radio modules offer global certification, low-power consumption for battery-powered devices, and open-source drivers pre-integrated into NXP host processors to reduce design effort and complexity. 
Key Benefits of the MAYA-W2 
  • Versatility: They can support a wide range of wireless communication standards, making them suitable for various applications.
  • Efficiency: By integrating multiple radios into a single module, they can reduce the size, cost, and complexity of the device.
  • Performance: Tri-radio modules can improve the performance of devices in dense wireless environments by allowing them to switch between different radios based on the network conditions. 
  • Interoperability: They can enable devices to communicate with other devices that use different network standards.
