The Z-Wave Alliance is an open consortium of over 250 leading manufacturers and service providers world-wide that are dedicated to interoperable wireless control products based on the Z-Wave open standard. Z-Wave is a key enabling technology driving the “Internet of Things”.
The Z-Wave Alliance membership is comprised of industry leaders from across the entire spectrum of the home controls market. They share a common consensus and a common goal - to provide advanced yet practical systems that deliver increased comfort, convenience, safety and security.
Z-Wave products and applications fall into every conceivable area of control for residential and light commercial environments. These include lighting, HVAC and security control, as well as home theaters, automated window treatments, pool and spa controls, garage and access controls and more. Z-Wave is also at the forefront of green energy conservation technologies, allowing automated meter readings and enhanced demand management.
Each Z-Wave product must pass a stringent conformance test to assure that it meets the Z-Wave standard for complete interoperability with all other devices and controls. The Z-Wave certification mark assures consumers, integrators, dealers and manufacturers that their products will reliably perform with any other Z-Wave device.
