Ember, a provider of Zigbee networks, has started volume shipments of its two ZigBee platforms in 2006: the EM250 ZigBee system on a chip, and the EM260 ZigBee network co-processor. These semiconductor systems offer customers a fast, flexible and easy way to ZigBee-enable their devices. They are also used as a “Golden Unit” interoperability testing platform for the ZigBee Alliance.

More recently, Ember unveiled EmberZNet™ PRO, a new professional-grade version of its software. EmberZNet PRO is a significant industry development because it delivers on the true promise of mesh networking — the ability to support larger, scalable, more sophisticated and secure sensor and control networks with high reliability.
