Z-Wave Wireless Home Automation
Z-Wave: The New Standard in Wireless Remote Control Imagine having total remote control over all the electronics in your home. Not just your entertainment gear, but also your lighting and household appliances, your climate control, security system, health care monitoring...virtually anything that uses electricity. Now imagine that adding all this control to your home is plug-and-play simple, with no new wiring and no need for costly professional installation. Finally, imagine all this being extremely affordable, and modular too, so you can add as much or as little control to your home as you like, over time.
What you're imagining is Z-Wave, the new standard in wireless remote control. Z-Wave is a next-generation wireless "ecosystem" that lets all your home electronics talk to each other, and to you, via remote control. It uses simple, reliable, low-power radio waves that easily travel through walls, floors and cabinets. Z-Wave functionality can be added to almost any electronic device in your house, even devices that you wouldn't ordinarily think of as "intelligent," such as appliances, window shades, thermostats and home lighting.
And Z-Wave lets you control these devices in ways that give you complete command even when you're not at home yourself. You can control your Z-Wave household remotely from a PC and the Internet from anywhere in the world...even through your cell phone!
Z-Wave unifies all your home electronics into an integrated wireless network, with no complicated programming and no new cables to run. Any Z-Wave enabled device can be effortlessly added to this network, and many non-Z-Wave devices can be made compatible by simply plugging them into a Z-Wave accessory module. In seconds, your device gets joined to the network and can communicate wirelessly with other Z-Wave modules and controllers. Because Z-Wave operates on its own unique frequency, it won't interfere with other wireless equipment in your home, like cordless telephones and Wi-Fi routers. And because Z-Wave is a modular system, you can build your network one device at a time, one room at a time, or the whole house at once. The choice is yours, and the possibilities are nearly endless. Best of all, Z-Wave technology is extremely affordable, giving you powerful home control that you can integrate yourself in moments, at a fraction of the cost of conventional smart home technologies.
Z-Wave delivers on all the promises of the wired home, and opens up exciting new possibilities for the home of the future. And that future is here now, because hundreds of Z-Wave enabled products are already widely available, from some of the best-known brands that you already know and trust. Take a few moments to browse through this site and better acquaint yourself with Z-Wave. Get to know how Z-Wave makes your home -- and your life -- safer, more secure, more economical, more convenient and more enjoyable!
