Unlike powerline carrier systems, X10, Insteon, HomePlug CC, CEBus, and LON Radio Frequency systems like Z-Wave do not suffer from Impedance Loading when additional transmitters are added to a network. In fact, in an RF mesh network the more devices you have the stronger and more fault tolerant your network becomes.
