FRDM-RW612 | Part 2: How to Connect Devices to the OpenThread Border Router

This video shows how to use FRDM-RW612 as an OpenThread Border router and connect it to multiple Thread-based end nodes to develop a smart connectivity ecosystem.

Learn more about the details of Matter OTBR using FRDM-RW612.

Key Highlights

• High-performance core and connectivity of the RW612 makes the FRDM-RW612 an ideal solution for embedding Thread Border Router functionality
• The FRDM-RW612 board allows developers to easily prototype applications using the RW61x’s HMI peripherals and connectivity
• Thread Border Router connects the Wi-Fi and Thread networks that can be integrated in Matter application product devices
• An OTBR can be used in applications such as Smart buildings and Smart homes, in form of a smart speaker or a smart plug
• The FRDM-MCXW71 board can be used by developers to quickly prototype low power end nodes that need Thread, Zigbee and/or Bluetooth LE connectivity
