Z-Wave 700 vs. 800 Series – What’s the Difference?

The big question is: what are the main differences between the Z-Wave 700 and Z-800 series and why should device-makers and developers use the 800 series?

 

Extended Wireless Range

One of the most radical improvements of the Z-Wave 800 series is its increased wireless range. With the 800 series, device makers can enable their products with 1.5+ miles (2,300+ meters) range while the 700 series delivers a reach of 1+ miles (1,500+ meters). In residential, MDU, and building automation applications, an extended range enables products to connect with a lower mesh node count, farther away from gateways, and beyond the yard. Silicon Labs ZG23 SoCs feature a unique +20 dBm transmission (TX) power, combining high power output and low power consumption.

 

Long Battery Life

Energy efficiency is critical in battery-powered IoT devices. The less your products draw current, the more the end-users save money while having less hassle and wastage due to battery replacements. Both Z-Wave 700 and 800 versions provide an extensive battery life of up to 10 years with a coin cell. Silicon Labs ZG23 wireless SoCs featuring Z-Wave 800 bring a significant energy advantage over the Z-Wave 700 series. The transmit current (TX) is now 30% lower and receive current (RX) is 100% better.

 

Better Security 

Both the the Z-Wave 700 and Z-Wave 800 series feature the standard S2 security capabilities. However, the 800 series and Silicon Labs’ ZG23 and ZGM230S hardware also support a broad range of Secure Vault™features such as secure boot, secure key management, anti-tamper, differential power analysis (DPA), secure debug, and more.

 

Z-Wave 500 vs. 800 Series – What’s the Difference? 

The Silicon Labs wireless modules featuring Z-Wave 500 were released back in 2013. The Z-Wave 800 modules (ZGM230S) provide device makers and developers several advantages over the Z-Wave 500 series. Here are the key points:

 

  • The Z-Wave 800 series provides a range of 1.5+ miles (2,300 meters) as opposed to 600 meters in Z-Wave 500.
  • The Z-Wave 800 series features a 5 mA improvement in TX current and 5 dBm improvement in RX sensitivity, resulting in a coin cell battery life of up to 10 years (1.5 years in Z-Wave 500).
  • Z-Wave 800 modules have a footprint of 6.5 x 6.5 mm while Z-Wave 500 modules require 8 x 8 mm – so, Z-Wave 800 modules are 25% smaller.
