Aeotec MultiSensor 7
Why Aeotec MultiSensor 7?
Monitoring a smart home often requires multiple sensors for motion, temperature, humidity, light, and more. Aeotec MultiSensor 7 combines six environmental sensors into one compact device, reducing the need for multiple installations while providing comprehensive room monitoring. Powered by Aeotec's Gen7 Z-Wave technology, it delivers faster communication, improved battery performance, and greater detection range compared to previous generations.
Designed for indoor smart home automation, MultiSensor 7 can detect motion, temperature, humidity, light (lux), UV index, and vibration. It can operate using either batteries or USB power, and when USB powered, it also functions as a Z-Wave repeater to strengthen the network.
