AD-WISE-4471/WISE-4671 follows MQTT's publish and subscribe messaging model which is ideal for low bandwidth, high latency, and data limits. Additionally, as an IoT device, AD-WISE-4471/WISE-4671 also supports lightweight protocols such as CoAP, which are suitable for small devices that are unable to communicate efficiently with limited resources.

As MQTT and CoAP are popular standards in the market, the data format can raise concern over messaging protocols. Accordingly, AD-WISE-4471/WISE-4671 also supports the LwM2M protocol which has the management interface built on top of CoAP to enable device management operations.

There is also the official publication of OMA LwM2M2 Objects and Resources to alleviate data inter-compatibility concerns. LwM2M is a protocol offering flexible and scalable device management with improved time to the market; especially for low power devices with constrained processing and storage capabilities.
