Installing the connected socket outlet

Signal range

The operation of devices with a remote control, such as a TV or video and audio devices, is not disrupted by a Zigbee® connected socket outlet. The indoor range is ± 10 m. In open spaces, the range reaches 30 m. The range of the  Zigbee® connected socket outlet depends on the materials used in the residence.
