Cloud-driven smart home specialist Plume has joined the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) as a Participant Member. It says it wants to help shape future standards for in-home connectivity and ISP-delivered services.
The CSA – whose more than 860 members back specifications including Matter and Zigbee – will draw on Plume’s experience with OpenSync and its operator partnerships as it develops frameworks for routers, gateways, security, device onboarding and managed connectivity in the home.
“We are committed to increasing the level of standardisation across the industry through our participation in the Alliance and other standards bodies. We look forward to contributing our expertise from working with hundreds of service providers to power better and more reliable experiences in the home while helping them achieve their business objectives,” said Chris Griffiths, Plume CTO.
The company is also expanding its integration work, offering operators a turnkey, fully certified hardware and software stack, and developing new products that support platforms including RDK-B, prplMesh, prplOS and OpenWRT, with initial customer deployments due to follow.
