Z-Wave is a popular wireless technology for smart home applications with a large ecosystem of interoperable devices, such as smart lighting, energy monitoring, and home security systems. Consumers benefit from Z-Wave’s ease of use and secure interoperability thanks to mandatory product certification and features including SmartStart plug-and-play installation, Security 2 (S2), and backwards compatibility. Adding Z-Wave connectivity to your product is straightforward due to clearly defined software stacks, published device profiles, pre-certified modules, a finished product certification program and development tools that ensure high-quality products get to market fast.
