SMLIGHT - USB Ethernet POE Zigbee or Thread + Z-Wave adapter

GENERAL PRESENTATION

The SLZB-MRW10 is a compact and powerful multiprotocol adapter developed by SMLIGHT. It has successfully completed in-house testing and demonstrates stable performance on all supported networks: Zigbee, Thread/Matter, Wi-Fi and Z-Wave (uncertified).

Integration of Three Major Chipsets

The SLZB-MRW10 integrates three separate radio chips:

• CC2674P10 zigbee 3.0, Thread and Matter-over-Thread (up to 400 end devices)
• EFR32ZG23 z-Wave 800 series
