Introduction#

The Silicon Labs Connect stack provides a fully-featured, easily-customizable wireless networking solution optimized for devices that require low power consumption and are used in a simple network topology. Connect is configurable to be compliant with regional communications standards worldwide. Each RF configuration is designed for maximum performance under each regional standard.

The Connect stack supports many combinations of radio modulation, frequency, and data rates. The stack provides support for end nodes, coordinators, and range extenders. It includes all wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) layer functions such as scanning and joining, setting up a point-to-point or star network, and managing device types such as sleepy end devices, routers, and coordinators. With all this functionality already implemented in the stack, users can focus on their end application development and not worry about the lower-level radio and network details.
