Product description: Home Assistant Yellow Standard Kit - intelligent switchboard - ZigBee / Thread - Nabu Casa YELLOW-KIT-STD
Raise the standard of your smart home with the Home Assistant Yellow control panel! This intelligent system allows you to easily build advanced home automation on the Home Assistant platform. It allows you to integrate thousands of devices in one place, so there is no need to use several applications - control all your Smart Home devices with Home Assistant. Home Assistant Yellow has a built-in ZigBee and Thread system, which allows you to add almost any device supporting these standards to your smart home system. The central unit stores data locally , making it completely safe. Home Assistant Yellow requires Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (not included) to work properly. The Yellow version also supports M.2 Key M drives in sizes 2230 / 2242 / 2260 / 2280. The whole thing is enclosed in a transparent housing, with access to connectors and buttons. The set also includes a radiator, thermally conductive tapes and an appropriate power supply.

Home Assistant Yellow smart home control unit.Open platform in hardware
A lot of time and resources have been devoted to improving Home Assistant products. The manufacturer wants others to be able to see the work done and create their own great smart home products. That's why the Nabu Casa team is making Home Assistant Yellow diagrams available as open source software. Examine the Home Assistant Yellow disc and check the source files .
Works with Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4)
For proper operation, the Home Assistant Yellow smart home control unit requires the use of a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4) minicomputer, which is not included in the set and must be purchased separately. A board with at least 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of eMMC memory is required. Please note that the Lite versions of this board do not have built-in Flash memory, in which case an NVMe SSD drive should be used. Some users have reported these drives not working properly with Home Assistant Yellow.
The device requires Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 for proper operation.
Home Assistant Yellow has a built-in ZigBee / Thread module, making it compatible with thousands of devices.Wide compatibility
The Home Assistant Yellow control unit allows integration with thousands of home automation platforms, which enables cooperation with a wide range of intelligent devices - from lighting, through heating, to security systems. Additionally, the built-in ZigBee and Thread communication system allows integration with even more Smart Home devices. If you already use devices based on Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings or Amazon Alexa, you can easily transfer their data to Home Assistant and manage them with one application.
Data safety
The Home Assistant platform pays special attention to protecting user data and privacy. Unlike many other Smart Home solutions that rely on the cloud, Home Assistant Yellow stores data locally, which significantly reduces the risk of data leakage or unauthorized access. Regular updates also ensure protection against new threats and security vulnerabilities, which is crucial in the dynamically developing world of cybercrime.
Home Assistant Yellow works locally, does not require a cloud connection, so you will maintain complete privacy.
