Driving reasons, considerations and trends
- Upgrading your appliances for reuse is absolutely in line with the circular economy.
- What more could you want when it comes to preserving value and sustainability?
So the question simply arises
How can you convert an A1 Smart Home Gateway
into a still up-to-date WiFi access point that also offers a Zwave and a ZigBee module?
The Sercomm NA502 is a ZigBee/Z-Wave gateway and was developed for various solutions of different brands, such as A1 Smart Home Gateway in Austria. It is based on the MediaTek MT7621 SoC with a Gigabit Ethernet port, Z-Wave and ZigBee modules as well as 2.4/5-GHz WiFi adapters
The NA502s also has a 3G cellular module, but this will no longer play a role in the future as this cellular service is being phased out by the mobile network operators.
The NA502 and NA502s_(3G) gateway models therefore form the basis for the smart home and IoT services of various providers, such as A1, Mios, VeraSecure, Hornbach and probably a few others.
