RadioShack Now Offering Z-Wave Automation

New York – Home-automation products incorporating wireless Z-Wave technology continue to roll out through
major retail channels, with RadioShack launching products nationwide in 4,500
stores following a midyear launch by Lowe’s and a late-2008 launch by Fry’s.

RadioShack has begun offering Z-Wave-enabled GE/Jasco products as
well as Schlage products, including the Schlage LiNK remote home-management starter-kit
system. The LiNK starter kit, which enables control of Z-Wave devices from Web-browsing
PCs and cellphones, includes a door lock, light module and communications
bridge to link the devices to a home Ethernet network for remote access. The
system also controls networked security cameras and thermostats. Other Schlage
products at RadioShack include lever door locks, deadbolt door locks, Schlage
LiNK wireless security cameras and thermostats from sister-brand Trane.

Lowe’s also offers the
Schlage LiNK system.

Fry’s launched Z-Wave devices in nine states with products from Wayne-Dalton, Hawking Technologies and
GE.
