Description

Elegant. Intelligent. Smaller still. The 2nd generation Aeotec Door / Window Sensor provides your Z-Wave network with the intelligence required for a modern home automation and security system. And it does it all in a smaller, more elegant design crafted to suit any home’s decor. The Door & Window Sensor finds out something very simple – whether a door or a window, or in reality any object in your home, is open or closed. But there’s power in simplicity. Power that permits you to inform the rest of your Z-Wave network about your selected doors and windows. Like a thermostat lets your heating and cooling systems know what they should do next, Aeotec’s Z-Wave Door & Window Sensor does the same. Perhaps an open door means that your lights should turn on and welcome you home. Perhaps an open window means that an alarm should be triggered. Whatever it means to your home, with door and window sensors installed, your Z-Wave network will have both the power and the intelligence to do it.
Implausible wireless range – The Door & Window Sensor is completely wireless. Despite its small size, it’s powerfully so. It uses a special Z-Wave wireless signal that aims to cause no interference with other technologies in your home. That same wirless signal is ultra-low power, helping the battery last for years. And it does all of this with an antenna that can communicate over 300 foot / 90 metres in an open space.
Small in size – It attaches to your doors. It attaches to your windows. And, despite its beautiful curves, you do not want to notice it. You need the Door & Window sensor to blend in, to become part of your home’s décor. That’s why we’ve made the 2nd generation sensor smaller than the first. We’ve reduced all its measurements without reducing its functionality. It’s smaller still, and it just looks better.
Simple DIY installation – The Door & Window Sensor is light. So light, in reality, that you’ll be able to install it using only double sided sticky tape. Of course, there are other options, including screws. And you’ll be able to find them all in the packet. All you’ll be able to need is a screw driver and five minutes of your day.
Batteries that last – Changing batteries is inconvenient. Forgetting to change batteries on a sensor that can be used for security can be dangerous. That’s why we designed the Door & Window Sensor to use as little power as imaginable, with an average of 2 years passing before you wish to have to change its batteries.
Security – Compatible with Z-Wave security systems, Aeotec’s Door & Window Sensor can do more than protect your home’s points of entry – it can protect itself. With its inbuilt tamper detection, the sensor is in a position to monitor for thieves attempting to interfere with it. And when they do, the sensor will automatically set off an alarm. Prevention is better than cure.
