Smart Z-Wave Solutions for Secure, Low-Power Automation

Explore Z-Wave products from ShortRangeWireless—scalable wireless automation for smart buildings and B2B infrastructure systems.

Powering Secure and Interoperable Smart Automation with Z-Wave Solutions

Z-Wave is a robust wireless communication protocol designed specifically for smart automation, enabling secure, low-power, and interoperable device networking. Operating in the sub-GHz range, Z-Wave avoids interference from Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, making it highly reliable for home and commercial automation systems. It supports mesh networking and offers low-latency control of smart devices such as sensors, locks, lights, thermostats, and access systems.
Designed for flexibility and compatibility, Z-Wave devices from different manufacturers can communicate with each other seamlessly—ensuring hassle-free scalability across applications. The protocol is widely adopted in smart buildings, hospitality environments, and energy management infrastructures.
At ShortRangeWireless, we serve the growing North American B2B sector by delivering Z-Wave products and services tailored to enterprise-level automation and control. Our solutions empower businesses with centralized oversight, streamlined operations, and enhanced efficiency—backed by our commitment to innovation and expert support.
