Rutronik expands its wireless portfolio with the Murata Type 2FR, a highly integrated tri-radio module based on the NXP RW612. The compact module combines dual-band Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth LE 5.4 and IEEE 802.15.4 in a hostless architecture with integrated ArmCortex-M33 MCU and flash memory – ideal for industrial IoT edge devices, smart factory connectivity and Matter-enabled systems
The Murata Type 2FR integrates complete wireless connectivity for modern IoT and industrial applications into an ultra-compact LGA module measuring just 12.0 × 11.0 × 1.55mm. It is based on the NXP RW612 wireless MCU featuring an integrated 260MHz Arm Cortex-M33 processor, 1.2 MB SRAM and 16 MB flash memory. This enables the module to run applications in a hostless architecture, significantly reducing development effort and system complexity.
The tri-radio concept combines dual-band Wi-Fi 6 in the 2.4 and 5GHz bands, Bluetooth LE 5.4 and IEEE 802.15.4, enabling simultaneous support for modern IoT protocols such as Matter over Wi-Fi, Thread and Ethernet. Thanks to its high interoperability, the module is particularly suitable for connected industrial and building automation systems.
In addition to wireless connectivity, the module provides a comprehensive peripheral and security concept. Up to 64 GPIOs are available alongside numerous interfaces including USB 2.0 OTG, Ethernet, SPI, I²C, UART, SDIO 3.0 and ADC/DAC functionality. Integrated security features such as NXP EdgeLock, TrustZone-M, hardware root of trust and secure boot mechanisms support deployment in security-critical industrial and IoT applications.
With support for energy-efficient Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth LE Long Range and IEEE 802.15.4, the module is ideally suited for scalable and power-optimised edge designs. The extended operating temperature ranges from -40 to +85 °C also enables deployment in demanding industrial environments.
