  • Page 6: Z-Wave Protocol Description

    ● Uses a source-routed mesh network architecture Every non-battery powered Z-Wave device (including your eZLO hub) works as a repeater in addition to its primary functionality. If a battery-powered Z-Wave device has a listening mode, it can also work as a repeater. So the more devices you connect to your network, the stronger and more dependable the Z-Wave signal in your apartment is going to be, and therefore the data exchange between devices becomes much more reliable.
