Understanding communication protocols is crucial when choosing a smart control panel. These protocols determine how your panel talks to other devices.

Common Protocols Supported

• Wi-Fi:Most popular; connects directly to your home network.

• Zigbee:A low-power, fast protocol ideal for lighting, sensors, and home automation.

• Z-Wave:Similar to Zigbee, often used for security devices like locks and alarms.

• Bluetooth:Great for local control without needing Wi-Fi but limited range.

Multi-Protocol Panels

Some advanced smart home control panels support multiple protocols simultaneously, offering greater flexibility and future-proofing your smart home setup.

Tip: If you already have a mix of Zigbee and Wi-Fi devices, look for a panel that supports both to avoid compatibility headaches.
