Numerous configuration options
The software architecture of the Squid.link gateways offers numerous possibilities for configurations, allowing you to get a tailored wireless solution. Take a closer look at the architecture and your possibilities:
IP communication
Depending on your needs, you can choose between using MQTT, Web Services, or custom IP communication protocol to deliver data collected by the Squid.link gateways to the backend of your solution.
WAN
For the Wide Area Network (WAN) connection, the gateway allows you to choose between several wireless technologies. These include WiFi and cellular networks. Alternatively, a custom wireless technology can be used for the connection. Another option is to establish the WAN connection via an Ethernet cable.
Cloud integrations
The Squid.link gateways allow integration of 3rd party cloud services. With such services, it is possible to develop applications without having to invest in the underlying infrastructure. Integration with cloud services ensures the fastest time to market of your solution and offers you the potential of efficiently scaling the solution from ten to millions of devices.
Applications
The Squid.link gateways offer three options on how to develop the application for your solution. You can build the application yourself using one of the gateways APIs; the Squid Smart App or the SmartAMM API. We can also help you find a trusted partner that can develop the application for you.
APIs
When developing the application for your solution, you can use a high-level or a low-level API. The high-level API Squid Smart App allows you to configure your application instead of programming it. If you want to program the application, the low-level SmartAMM API is the ideal choice.
Operating system
The Squid.link gateways consists of a Linux platform, including a long-term Linux kernel and a root file system. The root file system contains a number of standard Linux utilities. The Linux platform has been developed to make it as easy as possible for you to include the functionality you want in your solution.
HAN
The multiprotocol Squid.link gateways allow you to integrate devices into your solution across wireless technologies. The gateways support Zigbee, BLE, Wireless M-Bus, Z-Wave, WiFi, and cellular networks. Support for custom wireless technologies is also a possibility.

Focus on quality
Our customers typically underline the ease of developing on our well-tested, thoroughly documented platform as a main reason for their cooperation with us.
It is not by chance that we differentiate ourselves from our competitors on this competitive advantage. It is because we have learned the hard way that it is absolutely essential to put ourselves in the developer's place when developing and designing products for the IoT.
All development tools and technical documentation are available online 24/7. The wireless protocols integrated into our products are naturally vigorously tested to ensure reliability, compatibility, and security.
Developer's dream
As a developer, you will greatly appreciate the platform's:
- Great interoperability
- Flexibility and complex local intelligence
- Multiple protocol functionality
- Broad system compatibility (open source, Linux operating system)
Sectors and industries that typically use our wireless platform successfully range from i.a. public home care service providers to commercial building automation providers.
