That's when you need a Zigbee coordinator: the central device that connects all Zigbee devices in your home. There are dozens of options, from dirt-cheap dongles with no support to overpriced hardware you'll never fully use.

The adapter features an external, freely positionable antenna (24 mm diameter, 164 mm high) with optimal tuning for 2.4 GHz signals, including a ground plane in the base for extra range. Thanks to the 1.5 meter long USB-C to USB-A cable, you can easily place the adapter in a central location, away from sources of interference such as metal server cabinets, USB 3.0 ports, or aquariums. Zigbee 3.0 (the standard for smart devices) and Thread (modern mesh technology for Matter devices) are fully supported, albeit one protocol at a time. The adapter works out of the box with Zigbee Home Automation (ZHA), Zigbee2MQTT, and OpenThread Border Router.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Connectivity and protocols\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe Connect ZBT-2 uses the Silicon Labs MG24 chip for Zigbee 3.0 and Thread, with a baud rate of 460,800 bps (4× faster than its predecessor) for noticeably more responsive switching. The ESP32-S3 functions as a USB-serial bridge (USB 2.0 full-speed), allowing for future expansion. It operates from 2400–2483.5 MHz with a transmit power of 10 dBm (Europe) or 8 dBm (rest of the world). The omnidirectional antenna has a peak gain of 4.16 dBi for a wide coverage pattern. Note: You can use either Zigbee or Thread; running them simultaneously is not recommended due to interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Platform compatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis adapter is designed for Home Assistant and works seamlessly with ZHA (Zigbee Home Automation), Zigbee2MQTT, and OpenThread Border Router. Any Zigbee-certified device or Matter-certified device via Thread should work out of the box. Home Assistant supports one of the broadest Zigbee compatibility lists in the world, including Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware updates for major brands like Philips Hue, IKEA, Aqara, THIRDREALITY, etc. To migrate from an existing Zigbee or Thread network, Home Assistant provides improved tools to let you switch in just a few clicks, even from the CONZ or Zigbee2MQTT.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Nutrition and energy\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The Connect ZBT-2 is powered via USB-C (5 V DC, 500 mA) and requires no external power supply. The 1.5-meter USB cable provides ample space for centrally positioning the adapter without the need for additional extension cords. The device weighs 157 grams and includes a USB-C to USB-A cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Functional properties\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe MG24 chip offers higher processing power and improved sensitivity to weak signals than the MG21 in the Connect ZBT-1. In practice, you'll especially notice the difference when controlling multiple devices simultaneously, as the quadrupled communication speed minimizes delays. The larger external antenna improves both transmission to distant devices and reception of weak signals. The adapter supports all Zigbee and Thread regions and 2.4 GHz channels worldwide. Firmware updates are automatic during initial setup and subsequently via Home Assistant, without any additional tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Software and updates\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe Connect ZBT-2 receives firmware updates directly through Home Assistant, so you always benefit from the latest Zigbee 3.0 and Thread improvements. The Home Assistant team is actively testing Zigbee 4.0 support for future releases. For Zigbee2MQTT, you may need to flash a different firmware (EMBER instead of EZSP). The firmware is updated automatically during initial setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Physical and installation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The adapter measures 83 × 83 × 179 mm (base + antenna) and is made of durable white polycarbonate plastic with semi-transparent accents. Unlike the ZBT-1, this version opens easily without clips or adhesive, leaving exposed pins and pads for tinkerers. The external antenna and base allow you to stand the adapter freely, ideal for avoiding interference from metal cabinets or USB 3.0 ports. The antenna should be mounted vertically for optimal operation; the status LED will flash rapidly if not optimally oriented.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch4\u003eEnvironment and sustainability\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The Connect ZBT-2 is designed for indoor use in temperatures ranging from 0°C to 65°C (antenna: -40°C to +85°C). Place the adapter in a dry, dust-free location and avoid direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent overheating. Use only in non-condensing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Performance and latency\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Thanks to the 460,800 bps baud rate (versus 115,200 bps with the ZBT-1), the network responds faster to commands. Your devices won't turn on four times faster, but you'll notice a clear difference in group actions. The MG24 chip has higher processing power and better reception of weak signals, which increases mesh stability. Range depends on walls, metal obstacles, and the number of ZigBee routers in your mesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Package contents\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The package (345 × 222 × 45 mm, 600 grams including contents) contains:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Home Assistant Connect ZBT-2 (antenna + base)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e 1.5 meter USB-C to USB-A cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e short manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Usage scenarios\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe Connect ZBT-2 is ideal for anyone who wants a reliable, future-proof Zigbee or Thread network without any hassle.

Currently updated to version 2.0, Ark Technology includes local hub automations, central hub local automations, multiple hub backup switching, and proxy hub disaster recovery. It provides disaster recovery protection against potential unexpected failures at various levels, such as cloud servers, external communication networks, routers, central hubs, and hubs, increasing the reliability of the Aqara Smart Home System.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e What are the disaster recovery options of the Proxy Hub?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e When Aqara Hub products (such as Hub M3, Hub M2, Camera G3, etc. with Hub features) fail or lose power, Zigbee devices connected to the Hub that can function as a proxy Hub take over responsibility for some basic local automations and scene execution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Which devices are currently supported as proxy hubs?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe following Aqara overseas version devices support proxy Hub functionality (ensure the firmware is up to date):\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Aqara LED Strip T1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Aqara Ceiling Light T1M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Aqara Smart Wall Switch H2 EU version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Aqara Dual Relay Module T2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e What are the precautions for proxy Hub disaster recovery?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003col\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Because Proxy Hub disaster recovery requires coordination between multiple devices, the firmware of devices (including Hub firmware, Proxy Hub firmware, and other Zigbee router devices) must be updated to the latest version. If the firmware of some devices is not up-to-date, triggering and executing some automations may fail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e As a disaster recovery method in extreme cases, the Proxy Hub technology can only support some simple automation conditions and actions (such as single-pressing a switch, turning a device on\/off, etc.), and may not support complex automations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Why can some smart scenes still be executed when the Hub is offline?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eSmart scenes are divided into cloud execution and local execution. Manually executed scenes always run in the cloud, while automatically executed scenes can have their execution method displayed in the \"More Settings\" section of the smart scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e For cloud-executed scenes, the triggering device must upload the signal to the cloud via the network, after which the cloud sends the corresponding control command to the executing device. If the Hub is offline, the scene cannot be executed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In locally executed scenes, the triggering device sends the signal to the Hub, and the Hub sends the corresponding control command to the executing device via Bluetooth, Zigbee, or LAN. Therefore, even if the router cannot connect to the external network, the smart scene can still be executed as long as the communication link between the Hub and the executing device is normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch4\u003eWhy can't the Hub M200 and connected devices be controlled remotely after connecting to HomeKit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e After adding the Aqara device to the Apple Home app, you'll also need to set up a HomePod or Apple TV (tvOS 11.0 or later) configured as a home hub to enable remote control. For specific steps, see the Apple Home app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Why can't some connected devices be found in the Home app?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Once the Aqara Hub M200 is added to the Home app, only connected devices that support the HomeKit feature will be visible in the Home app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e How do I connect to third-party Matter ecosystems?

That computer is located in the meter cupboard or a corner of the house, far from the Zigbee devices you want to control. Result: poor coverage, devices dropping out, or a long extension cord stretched across the room to get the dongle to a better spot. And if your server restarts, the dongle is also temporarily unavailable, interrupting automations. A USB dongle works fine in a small apartment or on a desk, but for serious Home Assistant users with devices throughout the house, it's a structural bottleneck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SMLIGHT SLZB-06MG24 fundamentally solves this. This is not a USB stick but a full-fledged network Zigbee coordinator: it connects to your network via Ethernet, WiFi, or USB and communicates wirelessly with all your Zigbee devices from there. You can mount it on the wall in the meter cupboard or place it in the middle of the house on a PoE switch. Home Assistant communicates with it over the network as if it were a local USB dongle. Optimize its position for maximum Zigbee coverage, without compromising your server's position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEFR32MG24: the most powerful Zigbee chip currently available\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the SLZB-06MG24 is the EFR32MG24 chip from Silicon Labs. This is the successor to the widely used CC2652P and features more processing power, more memory, and better support for future protocols, including Matter-over-Thread. The chip supports both Zigbee Coordinator mode and Router mode (for use as a Zigbee Repeater), switchable via the web interface without manual intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e+20dB amplifier and +5dB external antenna\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in amplifier boosts the Zigbee signal by +20dB, while the included external SMA antenna adds another +5dB. The antenna is rotatable in three directions, allowing you to always position it optimally. This combined signal range makes the SLZB-06MG24 suitable for larger homes, devices behind concrete walls, sheds, and garages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree connection modes, one device\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapter works via Ethernet (including PoE), WiFi, or USB, switchable via the web interface or by simply pressing the physical button. PoE according to the IEEE 802.3af standard means you don't need a separate power cable if you connect it to a PoE switch or injector. Both chips (EFR32MG24 and ESP32) can be fully updated remotely via OTA, without physical access to the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStable and secure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe USB and Ethernet connections are isolated by an opto-isolator, allowing you to connect RJ45 and USB-C simultaneously without risk of interference or damage. The web interface is secured with a username and password and includes an internal whitelist firewall. The ESP32 supports autoboot flashing via USB-C without additional tools or button-press combinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e🏠 Home Assistant integration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SMLIGHT SLZB-06MG24 works out-of-the-box with Home Assistant via Zigbee2MQTT and ZHA. It comes with pre-flashed Zigbee and ESP32 firmware and is ready for immediate use after connecting to the network. Home Assistant automatically detects the adapter. Through the official SMLIGHT integration in Home Assistant, you can manage the adapter, view its status, and perform firmware updates from the HA dashboard. You can link multiple SLZB-06MG24 coordinators in parallel to a single Home Assistant instance by running a separate Zigbee2MQTT instance for each coordinator. Handy for large homes or multiple buildings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e🔧 Practical automation example\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImagine: you have Zigbee devices in the living room, bedrooms, and a shed. With one centrally located SLZB-06MG24, connected to a PoE switch in the meter cupboard, you can cover the entire property thanks to its powerful antenna and amplifier. Home Assistant communicates with the adapter via the local network. Your Zigbee mesh automatically extends further via the router devices in your network. No more signal problems in the corners of the house, no more dropping smart contacts or sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e📦 Installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the SLZB-06MG24 via Ethernet (with or without PoE) or USB-C. Open the web interface via the local IP address. Set the desired connection mode (LAN, WiFi, or USB) and add the adapter in Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA within Home Assistant. The adapter is pre-flashed, so no manual firmware installation is required.
