What is Z-Wave Plus?
Z-Wave Plus™ is a certification developed to help users identify products that use the "new generation" also known as the "500 series" of Z-Wave hardware. Z-Wave Plus™ offers a bunch of extra functions and possibilities that improve your use and make the installation of Z-Wave devices easier.
Z-Wave has been the market leader in interoperable smart home devices since 2004. With the introduction of Next-Gen (Z-Wave 500 series) hardware, Z-Wave saw new opportunities, including longer range, longer battery life, Over The Air upgrade (OTA), more RF channels and much more. All this and they are backwards compatible with existing Z-Wave devices.
For consumers, home owners, integrators and service providers, this upgrade turned out to be very beneficial in terms of much easier installation, richer device profiles, improved self-healing and longer battery life.
Features:
- 50% Longer battery life
- 67% Longer range
- 250% More Bandwidth
- 3 F channels for improved interference protection and higher bandwidth
- New Plug-n-Play network-wide inclusion process
- Improved self-healing and fault tolerance with Explorer Frame function
- Standardized method for Over the Air firmware updates (OTA)
- Improved information for the product certification database

What is Z-Wave S2?
Z-Wave S2 is the latest generation of Z-Wave developed to reduce power consumption, faster commands between devices and increase security on the network.
Advanced encryption
S2 improves Z-Wave Plus and Gen5 devices with an extra layer of AES 128-bit encryption of wireless signals combined with security class UL 1023.
Increased security
The first two layers of security are joined by a third - Always-on ECDH key exchange, which makes man-in-the-middle or brute force hacking almost impossible.
Better battery life
ECDH and AES 128-bit reduce Z-Wave Plus wireless data transmission, security communication now uses 66% less battery.
Faster commands
Your smart home becomes seamless. S2 devices improve Z-Wave wireless performance speed by more than 50%, reducing latency down to milliseconds.
