We are often asked this question. Why Z-Wave? and What is the purpose of the Z-Wave Alliance? Here is the definitive book on it.
In this eBook, market research confirms that the adoption ofconnected security devices including motion sensors, door locks, security cameras, andsurveillance services are on the top of the list for intruder prevention or other security issues.
Z-Wave Long Range (ZWLR) is a wireless communication protocol for applicationswhere long-range, high performance, increased scale, low power, increased devicesecurity, and device interoperability are vital.
Z-Wave Long Range (Z-Wave LR) is designed to extend network coverage, no matter how close or far away devices are located from the centralized gateway/hub. Long range devices can reach the edge of even the grandest of residential properties, and are finding even greater application within MDU buildings.
The chain of events with simple IoT device intervention is vastly different than today’s insurance model. Smart and connected devices in the home can reduce both the impact and frequency of certain claim types within home insurance.
As the DIY installation pace increases, dealers and professional technology installers (PTI) are presented with an increasing opportunity to enhance those experiences.
Looking to the future of building smart homes, it is exciting to see a certain level of tech is becoming more and more standardized.
For each country or region, the product has to apply to the standard ZdWave frequency used and approved in that region. This table shows the current ZdWave sub-1 GHz frequency coverage.

The fourth edition of the Z-Wave Ecosystem Report is a look at the growth and challenges for the smart home globally. Fielded in cooperation with Interpret and building on the Z-Wave Alliance’s exploration of the U.S. market in the 2022 Ecosystem Report, this year we take a look at key growth points in the U.S. but journey through the UK, France, and Germany as well. The 2023 Ecosystem Report takes a deep dive into the importance of interoperability, impacts on purchasing behaviors, and assesses primary barriers to smart home device adoption.
The Z-Wave 800 series is the latest edition of the world’s most popular Z-Wave wireless IoT mesh protocols for smart homes. The Z-Wave 800 series enables device makers to develop exceptional smart home experiences through reliable sub-GHz wireless, robust security, battery friendly power consumption, and easy Smart Start commissioning.
