Larger Networks – scaling to potentially thousands of nodes in a single network is enabled by Stochastic Addressing, Many-to-One/Source Routing and Asymmetric Link Handling

Denser Networks – enabled by Ember’s Intelligent Table Management that assures network stability even when many routing nodes are within close proximity

Sleepier Networks – significantly extend the battery life of end devices through compatible Ember enhancements such as configurable deep-sleep timeouts and special ZigBee (ZR) router parent functions

More Mobile Networks – Ember mobile support features explicitly identify and optimize mobile ZigBee End Devices (ZED) within network

More Secure Networks – are enabled by implementing many of the optional ZigBee PRO security extensions for advanced network encryption and device security

More Resilient Networks – are ensured by ZigBee PRO’s Frequency Agility features that allow the entire network to change channels in the face of interference

EmberZNet PRO 3.1 provides a robust and reliable platform for developing network applications, and Ember’s unmatched suite of utilities and network debugging tools simplify development, accelerating Time-to-Volume of high quality products. It includes:

• Ember InSight, an industry-first ZigBee network visualization and debugging tool. It operates with both Ember’s development environment and in deployed systems to record network traffic at several levels. This information can then be grouped, sorted, and displayed to immediately pinpoint the cause of any suspected network-related troubles.
• Ember InSight Development kits aimed at OEMs with formal development programs, and the Ember JumpStart Kit to enable customers to rapidly prototype their applications.
• Manufacturing tools to enable customers quickly test their Ember enabled hardware and applications in order to maintain quality while minimizing test costs.
• Ember AppBuilder Tool has been conceived to help OEMs in speedy development of certifiable Home Automation Profile ZigBee Applications.
