u-blox MAYA-W2 series - Host-based Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and 802.15

The MAYA-W2 series host-based modules are designed, built, and tested to meet the high reliability and quality requirements of a wide range of industrial applications, such as smart manufacturing, tracking and telematics, building automation, professional appliances, healthcare, and EV charging infrastructures.

MAYA-W2 modules provide SISO Wi-Fi 6 operation with up to 480 Mbit/s data throughput, improved performance in dense Wi-Fi environments, and MU-MIMO. Using 20, 40 or 80 MHz channels, the modules can work as access point, station, in P2P connections, or any combinations of these. MAYA-W2 supports Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3, including the use of isochronous channels for LE Audio. MAYA-W271 and MAYA-W276 provide 802.15.4 radio, as used by Thread and Zigbee.

At 10.4 x 14.3 mm, MAYA-W2 are among the most compact Wi-Fi 6 dual-band SMD modules available in the market. All u-blox modules undergo extensive qualification tests to ensure reliability over their life-time, and each module is fully tested before leaving the assembly line.

MAYA-W2 series is based on the NXP IW61x chips, which provide OS driver integration in their application host BSPs and SDK support for NXP MCUs.
