Bridging multiple wireless protocols
2Squid.link Gateway www.develcoproducts.com
Great interoperability
Modular platform
The Squid.link Gateway is an open Linux
platform including multiple wireless networks
for communication with smart meters, sensors,
smart plugs, thermostats etc.
The gateway is modular and can handle many
different wireless protocols at the same time.
Multiple protocols
The Squid.link Gateway has options for ZigBee,
Z-Wave, Wireless M-Bus and WLAN HAN
networks.
Communication with servers and e.g. smart
phones can be established via WLAN, Ethernet
(to local modem) or Cellular 2G/3G.
The price is extremely competitive since you
will only pay for your selected modules.
WLAN
Programmable Linux
gateway
Flexible solution
The gateway includes processor power
to implement even very complex local
intelligence. The memory options leave room
for data storage and logging.
You are no longer dependent on one vendor
but can combine your Home Area network
exactly the way you prefer.
Software options
Develco Products provides the Squid.link
Gateway with Linux and optionally Java. For
application of software, three options are
available:
1. Squid.link Starter Kit:
Complete hardware, software, development
tools and documentation package for own
software development
2. OSGi based middleware via partners, for own
high level software development
3. Turnkey software solutions from partners

Numerous possibilities
Design the Squid.link Gateway according
to your specific needs. You can choose the
protocols that you need for your Home Area
Network (HAN) and for your Wide Area Network
(WAN). The gateway is configured when put
into production. You can combine your Home
Automation system with your alarm system and
your smart thermostats regardsless of brand or
technology.

Open platform
Building your application on top of Develco Products open wireless platform enables you to focus on the quality
of your software. The platform includes the Squid.link Gateway and a number of wireless devices already tested in
large networks.
The Squid.link Gateway offers a fully open wireless platform based on open standards. Implementing your
application in C, Phyton, Java or other language gives you full access to wireless networks based on multiple
wireless standards.
Development tools
The Squid.link platform is delivered with a demo
application for a quick and easy start. Develco
Products provides a PC based tool for generating,
sending, receiving, and interpreting ZigBee telegrams
and other messages.
Applications can access the hardware interfaces
through an application API. This API is accesible
directly from an application running on the gateway or
from a server via the SmartAMM middleware.
Linux, Java & OSGI
For development, several Linux build variants are
available, e.g.:
•	 Linux for C and C++
•	 Linux with Oracle Java for JVM7 or JVM8
•	 Linux with Oracle Java, ProSyst Smart Home
middleware, Eclipse SmartHome
Or you can modify the Linux platform yourself to
match your needs.

Application API
The application API can be accessed from applications running on the gateway as well from a hosted application
running remotely. The remote access runs through a separate channel established between the gateway and the
server.
For easy access, a server middleware (SmartAMM server) is available through which you can debug the wireless
communication with the development tool.
3rd
party applications connect to the application API via a socket connection. The API supports:
Server settings (URL, port)
•	 SmartAMM server
•	 NTP server
•	 DNS server
•	 SSH Connect Home
IP settings
•	 DHCP/fixed IP (IPv4/IPv6)
System events
•	 MMI events
Wireless device access
•	 Access to ZB, ZW and WMB networks
Time sync
•	 UTC time
•	 Time zone
•	 Daylight saving

Demo application
The demo application enables you to set up a
smart home demo system by using the included
ready-to-use web application. Just connect your
PC or smartphone directly to the access point
of the Squid.link Gateway and you are ready to
start using the application.
You can add new products to the wireless
network, follow their current status, and control
electrical appliances via the smart plugs.
