- Use frequency 868.35 MHz
- Type of code: SLH LR technology (FAAC Patent)
- SLH = SELF LEARNING HOPPING code: the code varies whenever the transmitter is used. An algorithm recognizes and confirms the signal, only that of the transmitters coded by the receiver.
- Advantages: cloning almost impossible. Possibility of replicating codified transmitters, even remotely from receivers, with the patented SELF LEARNING system (from transmitter to transmitter), simply by pressing the keys in a specific sequence.
- LR = LONG RANGE: the transmitters can cover almost DOUBLE the current distance thanks to another electronics FAAC patent; the SLH LONG RANGE transmitter, whenever the control buttons are pushed, detects the surrounding environment in real time (e.g. position of the hand, presence of electrical disturbances, etc.) and automatically reconfigures the electronics, maximising the radiated power at each transmission. Fully compatible with previous SLH.

Frequently Asked Questions
The primary difference is the operating frequency — this system uses 868MHz rather than 433MHz. The 868MHz band typically experiences less interference from common household wireless devices such as Wi-Fi routers and garage door openers, which predominantly operate in the 433MHz and 2.4GHz bands. This can result in more consistent and reliable signal performance, particularly in densely built suburban and urban environments.
The combination of the 868MHz frequency band and the SLH long-range antenna design delivers extended transmission distances compared to standard receivers. This makes the system ideal for properties with long driveways, large setbacks from the road, or sites where obstacles such as walls, fences, or dense vegetation reduce the effective range of standard frequency systems.
The SLH rolling code protocol generates a completely new encrypted code with every single button press on the transmitter. Even if the transmitted signal were intercepted, the captured code would be immediately invalid and could not be used to trigger the gate. This provides robust protection against the relay attacks and code-grabbing techniques commonly used to compromise residential gate systems.
The 868MHz system requires 868MHz SLH-compatible FAAC transmitters — it is not interchangeable with 433MHz transmitters. If you are upgrading from a 433MHz system, new transmitters will be needed. We supply the correct transmitters and programme them to the new receiver as part of the installation or upgrade service.
Yes. The SLH LR receiver module is designed to connect to compatible FAAC control boards alongside safety devices, intercom connections, and other access control inputs. We integrate it seamlessly into your existing or new FAAC gate automation system.
