The IWR6843ISK intelligent TI mmWave sensor standard antenna plug-in module and IWR6843ISK-ODS intelligent TI mmWave overhead detection sensor (ODS) antenna plug-in module from Texas Instruments (TI) are in stock at Mouser Electronics.

Marvell has introduced a dual 400GbE (Gigabit Ethernet) PHY transceiver with 100GbE serial electrical I/O capabilities, designed to drive next-generation, secured high-density optical infrastructure. Data growth continues to put unprecedented demand on data centres and cloud providers, spurring the need for innovative technologies that can provide higher throughputs with enhanced energy efficiency.

Würth Elektronik has presented the Bluetooth Low Energy 5.1 module Proteus-III and the proprietary version Thyone-I for safe industrial radio applications. The modules, measuring only 8x12x2mm, with integrated antenna, encryption technology and six configurable IO pins, are based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 chipset.

Radio Frequency Systems (RFS) has announced its mature development of modular antenna platforms so that RFS designers can quickly react to solve challenges faced by operators with 5G roll outs.

Pasternack, an Infinite Electronics brand and a provider of RF, microwave and millimetre wave products, has expanded its offering of mmWave waveguide antennas to address the growing number of 5G and other high-frequency applications.

Renesas Electronics has expanded its portfolio of mmWave solutions with the introduction of two new IC families for satellite communications (Satcom), radar, and phased array applications. 

KP Performance Antennas, an Infinite Electronics brand and a manufacturer of wireless network antennas, has just debuted a new UBNT parabolic adapter and antenna kits ideal for the WISP industry. KP’s new UBNT parabolic adapter and antenna kits connect the Ubiquiti: PrismStation 5AC, IsoStation 5AC and IsoStation M5 to the KP two-foot and one-foot 5 GHz ProLine parabolic antennas. 

PREMO has released a family of small 3D emitter antennae for VR/AR and motion capture applications with a very good radiation performance and isotropy relative to size, and fully industrialised for SMT assembly lines.

With I/O modules for the multifunction vehicle bus (MVB) ELTEC expands its network solution range. The I/O modules CyBox IO MVB are interface boards that can be integrated into ELTEC products as mezzanine boards. They are used for monitoring the train-internal communication and acquisition of sensor data in trains, subways or trams, and comply with the IEC 61375 standard, thus providing the necessary functions for connecting field and control bus...

u-blox has extended its SARA-R4 family of LTE-M / NB-IoT and EGPRS cellular modules to include variants with the hardware and software features necessary to enable end-to-end security features and services for Internet of Things (IoT) data, devices, and ecosystems.
