The Home Assistant SkyConnect is a versatile USB stick designed for Home Assistant users, providing robust Zigbee connectivity and future-proof support for Matter and Thread protocols. It ensures a seamless smart home experience with easy firmware updates and plug-and-play integration.
The Home Assistant SkyConnect is engineered to integrate flawlessly with Home Assistant setups, offering essential Zigbee connectivity right out of the box. This device is also prepared for the future of smart home technology with upcoming support for the Matter specification via a simple firmware update from Home Assistant.
Designed for convenience, the SkyConnect features Over-The-Wire (OTW) firmware update capabilities through its USB interface, allowing for quick and effortless updates for both Zigbee and Thread protocols. It utilizes an EFR32 Series 2 adapter (Silicon Labs EZSP v8), capable of transmitting at a powerful +20 dBm for reliable communication across your smart home network.
This USB stick supports full-speed USB 2.0, ensuring efficient data transfer when connected via the included USB extension. Home Assistant will provide dedicated add-ons to facilitate communication with Ember Stacks for Zigbee and Matter, while Nabu Casa commits to continuous firmware updates to deliver the best possible experience with this multi-protocol adapter.
