Morse Micro’s HaLowLink 2 is now available. It was announced at last week’s CES 2026 and is designed for long-range Wi-Fi for the internet of things (IoT) and IoT 2.0 applications.
The HaLowLink 2 is an all-in-one Wi-Fi HaLow router, access point and extender to allow engineers, designers, system integrators and enterprises to deploy long-range, low-power wireless networks.
The module is powered by Morse Micro’s MM8108 Wi-Fi HaLow chipset that ups the wireless range, improves performance and simplifies deployment across multiple regions. The platform enables users to create networks for Wi-Fi HaLow devices operating in the sub-1 GHz band. This makes it applicable for:
- Smart cities
- Industrial sites
- Smart agriculture
- Logistics
- Large commercial campuses
Two HaLowLink devices can extend the Wi-Fi beyond its traditional reach allowing for robust backhaul connectivity for non-HaLow devices via Wi-Fi, Ethernet or USB.
"With HaLowLink 2 now generally available around the world, we're making it easier than ever for customers to deploy long-range, low-power Wi-Fi networks at scale," said Michael De Nil, co-founder and CEO at Morse Micro. "This product bridges the gap between Wi-Fi simplicity and the coverage traditionally associated with proprietary wireless technologies."
Some of the features of HaLowLink 2 include:
- Sub-GHz Wi-Fi HaLow
- 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi 4
- Dual gigabit Ethernet ports
- USB-C power/data interface
- MediaTek CPU
What is Wi-Fi HaLow
Wi-Fi HaLow (IEEE 802.11ah) is a standards-based alternative to other connectivity technologies like low power wide area network (LPWAN) technologies like long range (LoRa) or proprietary mesh systems.
Wi-Fi HaLow combines range and power efficiency with bandwidth, IP-native compatibility and scalability for industrial networks.
The technology includes:
- Over 1 km range
- Low power consumption
- Connects to more than 8,000 devices
- Penetrates walls, foliage and obstacles with sub-GHz frequencies
- Integrates into existing IT infrastructure
- WPA3 security
