Start to customize your personal Z-Wave network with the Z-Stick Gen5. 

Z-Stick Gen5 lets you build your own gateway. A gateway that is locally hosted. A gateway that is cloud free. One with the features and security your home need. And one that can communicate with over 230 Z-Wave devices that come from different Z-Wave brands as you gradually expand your smart home.

Perfect Wireless Range. 

Z-Stick Gen5 can communicate with other Z-Wave devices up to 150 metres / 492 feet away.

Make your computer the heart of your Z-Wave network.

Aeotec’s Z-Stick packs all the tools you need to create and manage a Z-Wave network all within one USB stick. Use the Z-Stick to create your Z-Wave network, use it to add up to 232 Z-Wave devices, and then use it to control them.
