from Matter, a protocol designed to enhance the smart home ecosystem and simplify the user experience. It introduces features like multi-admin support, enabling device sharing across supported platforms. To ensure seamless onboarding, this technology follows standardized industry practices and utilizes an IP-based connection protocol compatible with Wi-Fi, <a href=\"\/thread\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Thread<\/a>, and Ethernet.<\/p><p>Collaborating with <a href=\"\/smartthings\/\" rel=\"noopener\">SmartThings<\/a>, leading technology companies defined and developed this protocol. We&#8217;re thrilled to announce that starting from October 24, 2022, SmartThings now actively supports Matter integrations. As the protocol evolves, we eagerly introduce new features and expand our device library. Explore the following sections to gain a better understanding of how this technology operates and learn what you need to make the most of this protocol.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab38afd elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ab38afd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Matter operates using an IP-based connection protocol, which makes it compatible with popular communication technologies like Wi-Fi, Thread, and Ethernet. This IP focus is one of Matter&#8217;s key strengths, as it leverages the existing infrastructure in most homes. Matter\u2019s ability to integrate with Thread, a mesh network protocol, offers a solution for low-power and low-latency connections, complementing Wi-Fi&#8217;s high-speed performance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-39fe2c1 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"39fe2c1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;slideInLeft&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Matter Industry Support<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fed0b3e elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fed0b3e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>One of the reasons Matter has gained significant attention is its industry-wide collaboration.
