The UZB-7, Z-Wave 700 Stick Bridge Module is a simple reference design featuring the EFR32ZG14 Z-Wave SoC, as a gateway and controller for smart home applications.

The UZB-7 exposes the well-documented and proven Z-Wave Serial API via USB. It allows the host processor to control up to 232 Z-Wave and Z-Wave Plus devices through the Z-Wave protocol. With the developer PC application software, PC Controller, or any software compliant with Z-Wave Serial API, the host is empowered to communicate with various Z-Wave devices through the Z-Wave Command Classes, making your computer the heart of your Z- Wave network.

Controller software base on Z/IP*, such as Z-Ware enables you to create your own Z-Wave gateway that is locally or remotely hosted with a PC or single-board computers, such as Beagle Bone Black and Raspberry Pi.
