It has long been believed that a house can’t become a home when we don’t make it reflect who we are as a person. That remains true when we personalize and fill it with our material treasures. However, nowadays, it no longer needs to be just the materials we put in our home that personalizes it. Like the lights that gently fill the background of your favorite spa, the Z-Wave Plug-in Switch Controller and Z-Wave Plug-in Dimmer Controller creates the perfect ambiance for your home, and then some. They also give you the best control and the perfect, smart automation.

Z-Wave technology unites all your home electronics into a coordinated wireless network, without the complicated programming and no new cables to run. All Z-Wave enabled devices can be easily added to this network, and most non-Z-Wave devices can be made compatible by just plugging them into a Z-Wave accessory module. In less than a minute, your device gets linked to the network and can wirelessly communicate with other Z-Wave modules and controllers.

Across the different ...
... varieties of Z-Wave enabled products, each one letting you personalize everything from your home’s lighting, to its appliances and to its motorized doors and drapes, you’ll be surprised to note that the magic has been built right into the portable case of each switch.

Lots of big features that suits any home
Each Z-Wave Plug-in Switch Controller is tiny to begin with, but it becomes barely visible when it’s installed within your home’s wall or ceiling space. That means it perfectly suits with your home’s existing switches, ultra modern switches you want to buy, or rooms with no switches at all. It’s Z-Wave at its best.

Control Remotely

Each Z-Wave Plug-in Switch Controller can be controlled from a wall switch or from multiple wall switches. Each of them can also be controlled from any Z-Wave remote control including those from Smart Home and key fob remote. Plus, you can control them one at a time or multiple switches simultaneously.

Control from a Smartphone

We’ve been limited to how we can control our home’s most vital devices for decades, the Z-Wave Solutions Guide changes all that. Of course, Z-Wave enabled switches will still work but for all the other times your smartphone, may be it an Android or iPhone, becomes the switch. Smartphone control of the Z-Wave Plug-in Switch Controller and Z-Wave Plug-in Dimmer Controller will depend on the use of a compatible gateway, and a corresponding Android or iPhone application. Controlling the switches away from the home depends on a compatible phone plan. Note that standard data charges from your phone network may apply.

Control from anywhere and everywhere with Z-Wave inside – At home, at work and abroad
At its core, each Z-Wave Plug-in Switch Controller is powered by the same technology and intelligence that binds all Smart Home products: Z-Wave. Once installed, each switch takes part of the backbone of your home’s Z-Wave network – a network you can totally control but also one that responds to your needs and to your desires.
