  • More Info

    Z-Wave is an interoperable two way RF mesh networking technology. Each main powered device in a Z-Wave network is designed to act as a repeater. Repeaters can re-transmit the RF signal to ensure that the signal is received by its intended destination by routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots. The more Z-Wave modules you have throughout your home the faster and more reliable your communication will be. These packages of Z-Wave in-wall switches, both dimming and non-dimming (relay), are great for adding to your existing z-wave system.
