General information about
the FIBARO System

FIBARO is a wireless smart home automation system, based on the
Z-Wave protocol. All of available devices can be controlled through
a computer (PC or Mac), smartphone or tablet. Z-Wave devices are
not only receivers, but can also repeat the signal, increasing the
Z-Wave network’s range. It gives advantage over traditional wireless
systems that require direct link between transmitter and receiver, as
a result the construction of the building could aect network’s range
negatively.

Every Z-Wave network has its unique identication number (home
ID). Multiple independent networks can exist in the building without
interfering. Transmission security of FIBARO System is comparable to
wired systems.

Z-Wave technology is the leading solution in smart home automation.
There is a wide range of Z-Wave devices that are mutually
compatible, independently of manufacturer. It gives the system the
ability to evolve and expand over time. For more information visit
