proprietary transceiver and used to communicate with the one-way 433MHz and
two-way 915MHz devices in the home.

conjunction with Wi-Fi installed IP cameras.
Z-Wave Module – is a Z-Wave 908MHz transceiver that operates in conjunction with
software operating on the DLC to enable the DLC to function as a Z-Wave
controller.
