Thursday, July 12, 2012:
NXP Semiconductors has made available evaluation kits featuring JenNet-IP wireless network layer software. With JenNet-IP, it is possible to turn your home into an extension of the Internet at a very low cost. The reason being that up to 500 devices in the home can each have their own unique IPv6 address, thanks to JenNet-IP.
The JenNet-IP-EK040 evaluation kit is said to provide all the components needed to create applications for IPv6-based networks for lighting and home automation, based on NXP's JN514x series of ultra-low-power single-chip wireless microcontrollers.

The evaluation kit includes 4 wireless sensor nodes; 4 plug-in "shields"; 2 high-power modules; 2 high-power USB dongles; a router; a remote control; and a software development kit. Based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, JenNet-IP software comprises the self-healing JenNet tree networking stack; the IETF 6LoWPAN IP layer; and JIP, a powerful and flexible application layer enabling interoperability between devices.
"Over the last year, JenNet-IP has emerged as an important standard for wireless home automation systems. With the introduction of this evaluation kit, we'll be able to reach an even broader community of developers and make it easier to incorporate JenNet-IP into wireless network designs, particularly in smart lighting and smart home applications" said Sean McGrath, general manager--smart home and energy product line, NXP Semiconductors.
JenNet-IP evaluation kits are available for $1,400 at selected distributors.
