The module is configured with a Bluetooth SIG pre-certified BLE stack that speeds up the certification process. The ART6212 features dual-band technology so that the Wi-Fi signal can occupy the 5 GHz band while BLE can occupy the 2.5 GHz band – addressing questions around co-existence.

“ART6212 not only offers faster speeds than competitors but also faster certification,” said Kelly Simone, president and chief technology officer of Amp’ed RF Wireless Technology.

The modules are provided with an auto-launch BLE to Wi-Fi code, and are availble with stacks or developers can use open source software.

“Dual band BLE/Wi-Fi is like having two kids — one 5-year-old and one 2.4-year-old, they can’t argue with each other because they are on different floors of the same house,” said Naz Usmani, vice president of sales at Amp’ed RF.

Support for wireless devices and ART6212, speeds up both development and authentication. The company provides the code for BLE to auto-launch Wi-Fi for consumers.
