ZB Dongle-P Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus - Universal Zigbee Bridge via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT

Discover the SONOFF ZB Dongle-P Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus, a universal Zigbee bridge that transforms your home automation ecosystem into a reliable and entirely local network. Designed to function as a universal gateway via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT, it allows you to directly control all your Zigbee devices, without depending on a specific brand hub.

Why this dongle stands out

• Universal Zigbee 3.0: expanded compatibility that supports a wide range of devices, including SONOFF models (BASICZBR3, S31 Lite zb, SNZB01/02/03/04, ZBMINI, S26R2ZB, and many others). Manage devices from various brands under a single gateway.
• Open-source and local: easily integrate it with Home Assistant via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT for local control and advanced automation, without cloud dependency.
• Extended network capacity: the official firmware provides 21 direct nodes by default and 40 children, with configuration options to go up to 100 nodes, depending on your needs and the size of your Zigbee network.
• Designed for reliability: aluminum casing to minimize interference and an external SMA antenna that optimizes the range and stability of the Zigbee network, even in multi-room homes.
• Pre-configured and ready to use: pre-flashed with Z-Stack 3.x.0 coordinator firmware, ready to be plugged in and used immediately with your preferred platform.
• Matter compatibility and major ecosystems: thanks to eWeLink CUBE OS, the dongle can be prepared for Matter, facilitating interoperability with Apple Home, SmartThings, Google Home, Alexa, and Home Assistant.

What you gain with the SONOFF ZB Dongle-P

• Local and fast control: manage your Zigbee lights, sensors, and actuators directly from your home network, without going through the cloud.
• Multi-brand compatibility: no more manufacturer-specific hubs. A single dongle for the Zigbee universe, with the optimal security and latency you expect.
• Future scalability: the architecture allows for more devices and easy evolution with your home automation projects, without purchasing new gateways.
• Simple and flexible installation: quick plug-and-play, then minimal configuration needed in Home Assistant (or other platform) to start your automations in minutes.

Ideal for whom and why

This dongle is aimed at home automation enthusiasts, users wishing to centralize their Zigbee devices under a single gateway, and those who want to limit cloud reliance while maintaining seamless integration with the most common ecosystems (Matter, Apple Home, Google Home, SmartThings, Alexa, Home Assistant).

Concrete uses and scenarios

• Automate lighting and ambiance scenarios (twilight, wake-up, night ambiance, cinema mode) by grouping Zigbee bulbs and sensors from different brands.
• Monitor and react to door, temperature, or humidity sensors without latency, with programmed actions (alert, triggering another device, updating a status on your dashboard).
• Rapidly extend your Zigbee network thanks to the external antenna and USB extension cable to cover remote areas or areas with poor signal visibility.
• Integrate non-SONOFF devices into a Home Assistant architecture, benefiting from local management and centralized control.
