Schneider Electric announced the addition of Matter communications to its Schneider X Series connected wiring devices line. This enhanced communications functionality will help to increase compatibility across most smart home ecosystems, providing greater integration to help simplify home energy management.
The Schneider X Series connected outlets, light switches, and dimmers feature more modern aesthetics while also monitoring energy consumption in real-time. These wiring devices offer homeowners greater visibility and control over their energy usage down to the device level. The integration of Matter capabilities across the Schneider Electric offering expands its connectivity within a smart home environment and further enhances its interoperability and usability within smart home ecosystems.
Matter protocol was introduced as a universal language for smart home devices in 2022 by several members of the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), including Schneider Electric. Matter protocol leverages a standardized IP-based communication protocol to help enable more seamless collaboration among devices from diverse manufacturers. This protocol supports more than 41 product categories spanning from smart displays to EV charging stations to help streamline connectivity and integrate certified devices that best fit consumers' needs regardless of chosen brand. Schneider Electric solutions are among the first group of products globally to achieve Matter certification, with a growing number of offerings within the smart home portfolio offering this greater level of connectivity.
Schneider Electric's Home solutions, including the Schneider X Series connected wiring devices, are available at major home improvement retailers and electrical distribution outlets nationwide, providing wide access to these smart home solutions.
