Vantron has received CE, FCC, and UL certification for its VT-MOB-AH-8108 Wi-Fi HaLow module, officially clearing the hardware for mass production. This module integrates Morse Micro’s MM8108 system-on-chip to provide long-range, low-power connectivity for industrial and edge AI applications.
Why it matters
The certification allows developers to deploy Wi-Fi HaLow technology in North American and European markets for smart infrastructure and industrial IoT use cases. This enables secure, high-range connectivity for devices requiring longer reach than standard 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz Wi-Fi protocols.
The module utilizes the Morse Micro MM8108 system-on-chip, supporting channel bandwidths of 1, 2, 4, and 8 MHz. It supports WPA3 security protocols in both station and access point modes.
The players
Vantron
An embedded technology provider with 20 years of experience in developing industrial IoT systems and hardware modules.
Morse Micro
A developer of Wi-Fi HaLow silicon, including the MM8108 system-on-chip used for low-power, long-range wireless communication.
The details
The VT-MOB-AH-8108 is an embedded module that leverages Wi-Fi HaLow, an IEEE 802.11ah wireless protocol designed for energy efficiency and extended range. By operating in the sub-1 GHz band, the technology transmits through physical obstructions more effectively than high-frequency Wi-Fi. Vantron integrates this logic into a compact 11 mm by 10 mm footprint suitable for space-constrained industrial sensors and edge AI hardware.
Timeline
October 16, 2026: The module certification and mass production clearance were announced.
The Tech Race
This module represents a transition from research and prototyping to commercially available hardware for the Wi-Fi HaLow ecosystem. It competes with existing sub-GHz wireless protocols by offering a standardized path for IoT connectivity in North American and European markets.
Engineers designing industrial IoT devices or edge AI security equipment can now source this certified module for their hardware builds. The module is available for immediate mass production, enabling integration into upcoming product lifecycles.
The takeaway
The move to production-ready HaLow modules signals that the sub-GHz protocol is gaining traction for mission-critical infrastructure. Watch for the initial wave of product integration announcements to see how the 43.3 Mbps throughput performs in dense industrial deployments.
