Run your smart home locally, privately, and cloud-free. Aeotec Z-Stick 7 lets you build your own automation gateway using Gen7 and 700 series Z-Wave technologies.

Brimming with new features and technology, yet wholly more compact. Z-Stick 7 is 79% smaller than Z-Stick Gen5+ and yet it is still just as easy to setup.

S2 encrypted.
Your smart home is a secure home with Z-Stick 7. Wireless communication between its Z-Wave antenna and Z-Wave products installed in your home is secured with S2 security's triple-layered security.

Local hosting.
If it isn't locally hosted, your automation system's security and privacy could be at risk. Take control of both by using open-source hardware, such as Raspberry Pi, and software with Z-Stick 7 to host and control your automation setup locally.

SmartStart enabled.
Install new devices in seconds. Z-Stick 7 offers SmartStart natively, allowing for new Z-Wave devices to be connected to your system simply by scanning their QR code through a SmartStart-enabled app.

Features:

Built with Z-Wave 700 series - higher range, more efficient and better performance compared to older generation series
Z-Wave controller as USB stick
Wireless technology: Z-Wave Plus V2
SmartStart enabled
S2 Security
Compatible with Raspberry Pi 4 or older versions and also with Windows, Linux and iOS
Manages up to 232 Z-Wave devices

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.
