End of Life Notice for KLATU Gen2 Mote
TSB-2026-001

KLATU Networks announces the End of Life for the Gen2 mote platform. After 12 years of reliable service to the life sciences community, we're transitioning customers to our next-generation PiPerXS 4B platform with enhanced capabilities and AI-driven features.

Summary

KLATU's Gen2 mote platform has reached End of Life after 12 years of reliable service. We will discontinue Gen2 mote hardware support according to the schedule below.

While the Gen2 mote served you reliably for over a decade, it lacks the performance, Wi-Fi connectivity, security protocols, and AI capabilities now standard in modern monitoring platforms.

The PiPer 4 platform delivers these capabilities along with built-in support for TRAXX AI 2.0 predictive analytics.
