Material analysis of the Ring Alarm (Gen 2) 14-piece kit confirms the integration of a Z-Wave 700 Series chipset within the Model 5AT3S2 Base Station. This hardware specification enables a theoretical line-of-sight communication range of up to 1 mile, with an indoor effective range of approximately 250 feet depending on structural density. The system operates on the 908.4MHz frequency, a technical choice that minimizes interference with high-traffic Wi-Fi bands and supports a localized mesh network for high device counts.
Performance metrics demonstrate an integrated piezo siren output of 104dB. The base station contains an internal backup power supply rated for 24 hours of operation, although continuous application connectivity during grid failure requires the network infrastructure to be supported by an external uninterruptible power source. Technical data indicates the system utilizes a proprietary Z-Wave implementation that supports professional monitoring services through a built-in AT&T LTE bridge.
Structural dimensions and battery requirements for these sensors exceed those of newer Zigbee 3.0 miniatures, but the Tapo Smart Door Sensor Kit with Hub is suggested for users prioritizing a smaller physical sensor footprint on interior frames.
Comparative standards for multi-component security architectures are accessible through the alarm systems hardware classification.
