The EP40M utilizes a Matter-over-Wi-Fi stack on a 2.4GHz radio, facilitating local control through compatible hubs. The dual-outlet configuration features independent relay control, allowing for separate logic paths for each socket. The internal circuitry is rated for 15A total load, though performance metrics suggest limiting sustained draws to 80% capacity to mitigate thermal fatigue on PCB traces.
Structural analysis confirms an IP64 rating for splash resistance. The internal high-gain antenna is designed to maintain signal integrity through masonry and exterior siding. This model does not include energy monitoring hardware.
- Matter local control for reduced cloud dependency.
- Independent addressing for both outlets.
- High-gain internal antenna for extended exterior range.
Technical constraints require vertical mounting with downward-facing outlets to prevent capillary action moisture ingress through the rubber seals.
The Kasa Outdoor Smart Dimmer Plug is an alternative for those requiring TRIAC-based dimming for aesthetic lighting.
This hardware is indexed within the multi-protocol hubs and devices category for its Matter compatibility.
