Designed for European In-Wall Installation
Dedicated Power Base for European Wall Boxes
A key feature of the M7PE-NZ is its dedicated power base designed specifically for European in-wall installation.
Rather than adapting a conventional tablet for wall mounting, the M7PE-NZ is designed from the beginning as an embedded wall control panel.
The dedicated base provides:
- European wall box installation compatibility
Banana jack connections for practical wiring
Flush-mounted installation
Integrated mounting structure
Compact installation footprint
Anti-tamper mechanical design
The overall product dimensions are 175 × 102 × 32 mm, including the power base.
This makes the M7PE-NZ particularly suitable for European smart home, building automation and hospitality projects where a clean, integrated wall-mounted control interface is required.
Engineering-focused positioning:
Designed for the installation environment, not adapted from a conventional tablet
Open Android Platform for Custom Applications
The M7PE-NZ runs Android 11 and is designed as an embedded smart panel platform for customized applications and system integration.
For OEM/ODM projects, SMATEK can support:
- Custom Android firmware
Startup logo and boot customization
Application installation and integration
Custom UI and launcher configuration
Hardware interface integration
API and software integration support
Production firmware deployment
Project-specific system configuration
Customers can develop their own applications on the Android platform while SMATEK provides the hardware platform, technical documentation and engineering support required for product integration.
For projects requiring Linux, SMATEK can also evaluate suitable hardware platforms supporting Buildroot, Debian or Yocto, depending on the project requirements.
PoE & RS485 Connectivity
The M7P combines network connectivity and wired automation interfaces in a compact wall-mounted form factor.
Ethernet & PoE
The RJ45 Ethernet interface supports 10/100 Mbps communication and PoE power supply, allowing network connectivity and power to be delivered through a single Ethernet connection.
RS485
The half-duplex RS485 interface provides a wired communication option for automation and control systems.
The interface uses a 3-pin Phoenix connector with A / B / GND terminals.
This combination makes the M7P suitable for networked control systems where both Ethernet connectivity and wired field communication are required.
Wireless Connectivity
The integrated wireless platform supports:
Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz
Wi-Fi 6
Bluetooth 5.4
The combination of Ethernet, PoE, RS485 and wireless connectivity provides flexibility for different system architectures and deployment environments.
Smart Sensors & Integrated Audio
The M7PE-NZ integrates sensors and audio components for interactive control applications.
Proximity Sensor
Detects users at distances of up to 80 cm and can wake the display when a user approaches.
Ambient Light Sensor
Automatically adjusts screen brightness according to surrounding lighting conditions.
Integrated Audio
Single electret microphone
2 × 8Ω / 1W speakers
Built-in box sound cavity
These components provide an integrated audio interface for applications requiring voice input or audio output.
Typical Applications
The M7PE-NZ can be configured as a dedicated touchscreen HMI for:
Smart home control
Building automation
Wall-mounted HMI systems
Networked automation terminals
RS485-based control systems
Smart device management
Hospitality control interfaces
Custom Android HMI applications
OEM smart control panel products
The final application and software functions can be adapted according to the customer’s system architecture and project requirements.
OEM & ODM Customization
The M7PE-NZ can be supplied as a standard hardware platform or adapted for OEM/ODM projects.
Hardware Platform
Processor, memory, connectivity, interfaces, sensors and power configuration can be evaluated according to project requirements.
Android Software
Support includes firmware configuration, boot customization, application integration, UI customization and system-level software support.
Industrial Design
Product color and selected enclosure or mounting requirements can be customized for specific projects.
Production Deployment
SMATEK supports firmware flashing, software deployment, functional verification and production implementation.
For customers with their own software platform, SMATEK can provide the Android hardware platform and engineering support required to integrate the application into a production-ready smart panel.
From Prototype to Mass Production
SMATEK provides engineering and manufacturing support throughout the OEM/ODM development process.
A typical project can progress through:
Project Requirements → Hardware Configuration → Software Integration → Prototype → Engineering Validation → Production Deployment → Mass Production
Our engineering and production teams can support firmware deployment, functional testing, reliability verification and production implementation according to project requirements.
This allows customers to work with one partner for both the smart panel hardware platform and software integration process.
