Development Story
The original development work on ONE-NET was done by a Petaluma, CA company called Threshold, which was founded to create wireless networking devices for home automation and control.

The company looked at various protocols available, from ZigBee to 802.15.4, but found none of them solved the problems of a network in the home environment. So the decision was made to develop a new protocol, which was eventually named ONE-NET.

The design parameters for ONE-NET were simple; it needed to be multi-vendor so devices from different manufactures could communicate with each other; it needed to be optimized for battery powered devices; it needed to be secure; it needed to be low cost; and as development continued it was decided that it needed to be free and open source.




Fast Fact

A ONE-NET network can consist of up to 4,096 unique devices whereas ZWave can only handle 232.
