The smallest chips and modules in the industry: With a CMOS single manufactured in 130 chip from a size of 2.5 x 2.5 mm plus a complete RF module with only 8 x 8 mm underlines its technological leadership and Z-Wave and expands its cost advantages. Easy installation: thanks to the unique zero effort Setup technology are as easy to install RF remote controls based on the 400 series or to use as the infra-red remote included with today’s devices and meet as an essential prerequisite for acceptance in the mass market. Global solution with superior robustness against Wi-Fi interference: Z-Wave is the only technology with single chips that support sub-1 GHz and 2.4 GHz and therefore offers a future-proof, global solution. Due to the patented, simultaneous multi channel support, combined with better a hundredfold (i.e. beyond 20 dBc) interference blocking the 400 series even if strong interference with Wi-Fi devices in the same Hi Fi shelf or Cabinet is reliably compared to comparable RF chip sets.
“Lowest energy consumption: the 400 series, further expanding the strength of the low energy consumption of Z-Wave and offers green manufacturers and consumers” solutions at reduced costs. This generation of Z-Wave reduced the average energy consumption in battery-to-battery networks such as radio-networked smoke detectors on a third already industrially leading value of Z-Wave ZW031 series of chip. AV control allows the 400 series, for example, in the standby mode to work the TVs with zero power consumption and reduces the cost of the power supply in the devices even at the same time. We are very confident about the growth in the market for wireless home control and see the additional support for AV control as an excellent way to bring attention to the possibilities of Z-Wave enabled systems with customers, as well as Z-waves strong position in to strengthen the industry,”said Bill Ablondi, Director home system at the renowned market researcher of Parks Associates. The 400 series complements the single chips of the 200 and 300 series, already used in more than 200 interoperable Z-Wave products. About Z-Wave Z-Wave is the first technology that allows an affordable, reliable, and easy to use wireless control of every aspect of daily life of home, consumer electronics, HealthCare, and energy, to name only a few. Credit: Verizon Communications-2011. Z-Wave is an award-winning, proven and interoperable wireless mesh networking technology, a wide range of devices in the and the communication around the House.
These include lighting, appliances, HVAC, entertainment and security systems. Z-Wave enriched daily life to many advantages such as remote home monitoring, home health care and maintenance, safety and energy savings. Z-Wave certified products are currently by leading Consumer Brands in over 200 products available. Z-Wave is the winner of the Wall Street Journal technology innovation award in the wireless category, the CNET best of CES “award in the category of enabling technologies.
