X-Portal
The ZigBee Internet Gateway
X-Portal (UDP-ZBGW) is a true, drop in wireless network solution. Unlike other products that require you to program in Python or some other scripting language. The X-Portal requires no programming. This allows for a wireless network to be setup quickly.

Uses
ZigBee protocols are intended for use in embedded applications requiring low data rates and low power consumption. ZigBee's current focus is to define a general-purpose, inexpensive, self-organizing mesh network that can be used for industrial control, embedded sensing, medical data collection, smoke and intruder warning, building automation, home automation, etc. The resulting network will use very small amounts of power; individual devices must have a battery life of at least two years to pass ZigBee certification.
