Manage End Devices
Zigbee end devices are intended to be battery-powered devices capable of sleeping for extended
periods of time. Since end devices may not be awake to receive RF data at a given time, routers and
coordinators are equipped with additional capabilities (including packet buffering and extended
transmission timeouts) to ensure reliable data delivery to end devices.
