Z-Wave Interfaces
Every Z-Wave-enabled smart home system must include a Z-Wave “radio” to communicate with Z-Wave products installed in the home. These radios are called “interfaces”. Most smart hubs (like our HomeTroller Pi) have built-in Z-Wave interfaces. However, more advanced systems require a separate Z-Wave interface. The interfaces below are designed to work with all HomeSeer software and hubs.
Z-NET Network Z-Wave Plus Controller
Z-NET is a network-connected controller (“Radio”) that’s designed to allow HomeSeer (or Home Assistant) systems to manage Z-Wave (and optionally Zigbee) smart home devices. Since Z-NET is IP-enabled, it may be installed anywhere a network connection is available. Z-NET supports Network Wide Inclusion (NWI) for easy pairing of Z-Wave products. Multiple Z-NETs may be used together with any HomeSeer system for a centrally managed, muti-network installation; ideal for home owners with secondary residences or outbuildings (pool houses, barns, workshops, servants quarters, etc).
