Product description: SMLIGHT SLZB-06p7 - ZigBee CC2652P7 gateway for Home Assistant - Ethernet / PoE / USB / LAN / WiFi
The SLZB-06p7 is a professional ZigBee gateway designed for building stable and efficient smart home installations. It utilizes a Texas Instruments CC2652P7 chip, responsible for ZigBee and Thread communication, and an ESP32 microcontroller for networking, Wi-Fi, and configuration. Supporting Ethernet , PoE, USB, and Wi-Fi, the coordinator doesn't need to be connected directly to the Home Assistant server—it can be placed wherever the ZigBee network is most stable. The SLZB-06p7 is factory-programmed and ready to go. It supports ZigBee2MQTT and ZHA , and the manufacturer recommends it especially for ZigBee2MQTT-based installations. It runs on the SLZB-OS system, which provides a web interface, OTA updates, configuration tools, and diagnostic functions.
The ZigBee gateway works via Ethernet (PoE), USB or WiFi.
Main features of the SLZB-06p7
- Texas Instruments CC2652P7 chip : a high-performance ZigBee/Thread radio module with 152 kB RAM
- Support for up to 300 end devices : greater scalability compared to the SLZB-06 and SLZB-06M models
- Recommended for ZigBee2MQTT : a very good choice for Home Assistant systems based on ZigBee2MQTT
- ZHA compatibility : can also work with native ZigBee integration in Home Assistant
- Ethernet, WiFi and USB communication : flexible choice of server connection method
- Powered by PoE 802.3af or USB Type-C : convenient installation with a single network cable or via USB
- 20 dB RF Amplifier : More Stable Wireless Communication
- External 5 dB antenna : better ZigBee network coverage
- OTA updates : convenient software updates over the network
- ZigBee coordinator or router mode : ability to adjust the device's operation to the installation
- SLZB-OS : system with web interface, VPN, configuration and diagnostic functions
Communication and connectivity Ethernet, PoE, USB Type-C and WiFi
The SLZB-06p7 supports three connection modes: ZigBee to Ethernet, ZigBee to WiFi, and ZigBee to USB . This allows the adapter to connect to a local network via the RJ45 port, use WiFi, or connect directly to a computer or server via USB. This flexibility makes it easy to install the coordinator in a location that provides the best coverage for ZigBee devices . Support for PoE compliant with the IEEE802.3af standard enables simultaneous power and data transmission over a single network cable. This is a practical solution for installations where the Home Assistant server is located far from the center of the ZigBee network. The device can also be powered via USB Type-C, which is useful for test setups or where a PoE switch is not available.
The adapter is compatible with Home Assistant via ZigBee2MQTT and ZHA.
The coordinator is based on the Texas Instruments CC2652P7 and ESP32.
Home Assistant compatibility and SLZB-OS software
The SLZB-06p7 works with Home Assistant via ZigBee2MQTT and ZHA . According to the manufacturer, the model with the CC2652P7 chip is particularly recommended for ZigBee2MQTT , while also remaining a good choice for ZHA. The adapter supports ZigBee and Thread, making it suitable for modern home automation installations. It runs SLZB-OS – the manufacturer's system that offers a local web interface, OTA updates for the ZigBee chip and device firmware, a configuration generator for ZigBee2MQTT and ZHA, WireGuard VPN support, Home Assistant auto-detection, and security features. This makes configuration and maintenance of the coordinator convenient for both home users and installers.
