At Aeotec it’s our mission to help you build the home of tomorrow, today. We do this through what we specialise in: technology. Technology that can be applied to home automation. Technology that can be applied to a home’s comforts. But most importantly, technology that is reliable, proven and standardised.
Z-Wave is one such technology, and we’re specialists in it.
Like Wi-Fi, Z-Wave is a wireless communication technology. It allows all of Aeotec’s Z-Wave devices to talk to each other, and to other approved Z-Wave devices no matter who has made them. All of that communication happens reliably, without interference, without consuming a lot of power, and it all happens securely.
Below you can find out more about Aeotec’s Z-Wave home automation products and our different Z-Wave ranges.
Wireless
No cables. No complex installation. No fuss. Z-Wave uses a low-frequency, high-range wireless technology allowing Aeotec's Z-Wave products to communicate over distances as great as 492 feet / 150 metres.
Low power
Whether it's a Z-Wave product we've designed to help you save energy or one of our battery powered products, all our our devices utilise Z-Wave's low power capabilities with our Z-Wave Plus devices offering a further 50% reduction in battery use.
Secure
Aeotec's range of Gen5, Gen7, and S2 Z-Wave products set themselves apart by offering 3 different layers of security to avoid security breaches, hacking, and interference.
Interference free
Little is worse than unreliability. Z-Wave avoids being affected by, as well as causing, wireless interference and weak signals by using low-frequency channels to communicate.
Mesh technology
Wireless signals get lost. Z-Wave signals don't. That's because key Z-Wave devices act as part of a mesh network, receiving, amplifying and repeating signals intended for other Z-Wave devices.
Expandable
Buy a device today and another in a year. Z-Wave is the expandable Z-Wave home automation standard, capable of being expanded and modified at any time, and to suit any budget.
Easy to use
Whether a DIY or professional installation, Aeotec's Z-Wave products have been designed to be easy to setup and be even easier to use. Installation can take seconds for our SmartStart enhanced products and minutes for those without SmartStart.
Cross compatible
It's your home and your home control system. Aeotec's Z-Wave range are compatible with the broadest range of gateways, are backwards compatible with other Z-Wave device whether 300 or 400 series, and aren't susceptible to the wireless interface that plagues other standards such as Zigbee.
