Grove - I2C Hub (6 Port)
Sold outGrove - I2C Hub (6 Port) is an I2C expansion interface board, compared with the old Grove - I2C Hub, the same size, two more connectors, almost half the price!
Overview
We've already released the Grove - I2C Hub (4 Port), now comes the 6 port version, the same size, two more connectors, almost half the price!
As you may know, the 7 address length I2C bus allows up to 128 I2C devices to access.
At present, there are over 80 Grove I2C modules in Seeed, however, normally only 1 or 2 Grove I2C connectors are available on the Seeeduino Board or the Grove Base Shield. What if we need to use multi Grove I2C modules in the system? The answer is Grove - I2C Hub (6 Port).
There are 6 Grove connectors in this hub, one input, five output, or you can even connect one hub with another, so that more devices can be plugged in.
Not only I2C but also can be used to control several synchronous change devices (like LEDs).
We did a survey and gathered some feedback about the old Grove I2C Hub (4 Port), many users mentioned that the 4 slots are not sufficient, so we add two more and keep the same 20*40mm size.
SeeedStudio always values the voice of our customers, and we appreciate our customers helping us grow and make us better.

… and equipment status from anywhere with an Internet connection. Additionally, the Arduino Opta WiFi is equipped with RS485 communication capabilities, enabling seamless integration with an external power meter – in our case, a Finder model. This provides valuable insights into energy consumption, production output, material usage, and equipment health. The collected data is then analyzed through dedicated dashboards, offering information about operational efficiency and potential issues. By leveraging this data, businesses can proactively schedule maintenance and repairs, minimizing downtime and optimizing production processes. Retrofitting for a connected future Many businesses today can retrofit existing machinery to embrace the benefits of connectivity and automation. Our demo provides a practical example of how common industrial equipment can become smarter, more efficient, and easier to manage. From remote monitoring and control to power metering and predictive maintenance, retrofitting offers a sustainable way to modernize industrial infrastructure.
