Product description
Espressif Thread Border Router is based on the combination of Espressif’s Wi-Fi and 802.15.4 SoCs, built on the ESP-IDF and open-source OpenThread stack. This solution has obtained the Thread 1.3 Certified Component Certificate issued by the Thread Group, complying with the latest Thread 1.3 standard, and supporting Matter application scenario. It supports all fundamental network features to build a Thread Border Router and integrates rich product level features.
The Wi-Fi based ESP Thread Border Router / Zigbee Gateway consists of two SoCs: the host Wi-Fi SoC, which is an ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 and the radio co-processor (RCP), which is an ESP32-H2-MINI-1. The RCP enables the Border Router to access the 802.15.4 physical and MAC layer.
The ESP Thread Border Router supports the protocol functions of the 1.3 Thread standard such as bidirectional IPv6 connectivity, Service Discovery Delegate, Service Registration Server, Multicast Forwarding, NAT64, and more, as well as product-level features such as a Web GUI for device configuration, automatic RCP (Radio Co-Processor) upgrade, RF coexistence, and so on.
