Almost a half year ago and after a long development time we have published the Ethernet Extension (see blog entry). It is one of the most popular Extensions and for example used in the successful Starter Kit: Server Room Monitoring. With it you can control Tinkerforge components from everywhere in the world.

The possibility to power components by Power over Ethernet (PoE) is used by many customers. The used power supply circuitry is complex and takes much of the available space on the board, of course this affects the price. For this reason we are now offering a version without PoE. The PoE circuitry is not assembled for this version.

The Ethernet Extension (without PoE) is available in the shop for 39.99€.

Yesterday we have posted that in the next days we will be release 14 new Bricklets. The first bunch of Bricklets arrived from our EMS manufacturer:

The Bricklets passed the initial tests. So what’s next? Before we can sell them we need some days to take photos for the shop, finalize the product descriptions in the documentation, flash and test the Bricklets and package them in bigger quantities. We will keep you informed. Stay tuned!

At Christmas time there will be many novelties from Tinkerforge. Never before there were so many new products at one blow!

Fourteen new Bricklets

Believe it or not, 14 new Bricklets will be released in the next days! The possible applications reach from home automation, across robotics, to new products for human interfaces. We will keep you posted!

New Accessories

There will be new accessory products in the shop compatible to the new Bricklets. So it’s time for a new project at Christmas time!
