Technical specifications for the Xfox Zigbee sensor indicate a standard Zigbee 3.0 implementation with a reporting latency under 200ms when utilized with a local coordinator. Performance metrics show a service life of 12 to 18 months on a CR2032 cell. The hardware is designed for high-density deployment, offering broad compatibility with open-source automation platforms such as Home Assistant via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT.
Material analysis reveals a minimalist plastic chassis optimized for adhesive mounting. Aggregated data suggests that utilizing a dedicated Zigbee 3.0 coordinator—rather than a cloud-dependent Wi-Fi gateway—maximizes signal reliability and prevents timeout issues. The device operates as a mesh-compatible end node, though its signal strength is influenced by the density of nearby mains-powered routers.
- Modes of operation: Security monitoring, Lighting automation.
- Protocol: Zigbee 3.0.
Standardized testing suggests that the included adhesive may lose integrity in high-humidity environments. The lightweight construction is utilitarian, prioritizing cost-to-node ratios for whole-home window coverage over premium aesthetic finishes.
The Tuya Zigbee Smart Door Sensor 4-Pack provides a cost-effective alternative for comprehensive perimeter coverage compared to single-node premium brands.
This hardware is grouped within the contact sensors section as a standard Zigbee-based monitoring solution.
