Thread radio

Any plans to add a thread radio to the IoT module? Similarly, can the current 802.15.4 zigbee radio's in this module be converted to Thread for use with Matter? Thread is the future, IMO, and with thread 1.3.0 your AP's would be well positioned as great border routers.

Hi @vesalius 

Unfortunately currently we do not support thread and MATTER. We have explored thread in past but not seen any field requirement hence currently it is not in roadmap similarly there has been active discussions on MATTER with vendors but there is uncertainty as of now on the roadmap. If there is a field requirement you can reach out to Ruckus SE and from there we can work internally on seeing a possible roadmap/solution.

Best Regards

Given we are now a year further down the matter roadmap, with other manufacturers pursuing router thread inclusion, is there any change to this position on thread iot support?

Today we do not support thread and MATTER. Again we have explored thread in past but not seen any field requirement. Until there is a requirement from field on this it would take time.  If there is a field requirement you can reach out to Ruckus SE and from there we can work internally on seeing a possible roadmap/solution.

Well the new Ruckus r770 support (or has planned support for thread over Matter) per the data sheet. Likely locked behind a large license fee, buts it's in the specs.
