Matter is the universal smart home protocol backed by Apple, Google, Amazon, and 500+ device makers. LinkWi is building the hub at the center of it all.
The Standard
Matter (formerly Project CHIP) is an open-source, royalty-free connectivity standard for smart home devices, created by the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) — a consortium including Apple, Google, Amazon, Samsung, and hundreds of others.
Before Matter, smart home devices were siloed by ecosystem. A Google Home bulb would not control an Apple HomeKit lock. Matter breaks those walls: one standard, every device, any controller.
Why It Matters
Matter-certified devices from any manufacturer work together. No more ecosystem lock-in.
Matter devices communicate locally over your home network — no mandatory cloud dependency.
Matter uses Thread mesh and Wi-Fi protocols for rock-solid device connectivity.
Every Matter device is provisioned with end-to-end encryption from the moment it is set up.
Local control means near-instant response times — no cloud latency on your lights and locks.
Matter is actively maintained by the CSA. Your devices stay compatible as the standard evolves.
Device Compatibility
LinkWi Matter Hub will connect and control all of these — from any brand.
FAQ
Not immediately. Matter is a complementary standard. Many existing Zigbee and Z-Wave devices are accessible through Matter bridges, and new devices are increasingly released with native Matter support.
Yes. Matter-certified devices and controllers are designed to work simultaneously with Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings.
Thread is a low-power mesh networking protocol used by many Matter devices such as sensors, locks, and lights. A Matter hub with Thread border router capability — like the LinkWi Hub — is needed to connect Thread devices to your Wi-Fi network.
