Z-Wave (continued)
originator will attempt other routes until a path is found to the "C" node. Therefore a Z-wave network can span much further than the radio range of a single unit. In order for Z-wave units to be able to route unsolicited messages, they cannot be in sleep mode. Therefore, most battery-operated devices will opt not to be repeater units. A Z-wave network can consist of up to 232 units with the option of bridging networks if more units are required.
