The 11 devices are part of Shelly's line of Wave devices that support the Z-Wave Long Range specification and are supposed to release sometime in the first half of 2025.

The new Shelly Wave range is built for long-distance connectivity. Skip to main ... Z-Wave LR has a maximum line-of-sight wireless range of 1.5 miles when operating at full power with support for ...

The long wave band sits around the 200kHz mark and has traditionally carried national-level programming due to its increased range. Like AM it’s in decline due to competition from FM, ...

But Z-Wave Long Range (or Z-Wave LR), operating "in long range mode at full power," can hit 1.5 miles, according to the Z-Wave Alliance, presuming you've got the right star-shaped hub network.

Introduced in 2020, and now beginning to appear in products, ZWLR extends range up to 1.5 miles line of sight — four times standard Z-Wave — and replaces mesh with the ability for all devices ...

The discovery paves the way for cheaper, smaller long-wave infrared light sources and more efficient device cooling. Skip to main content. Your source for the latest research news.
