Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus-E (ZBDongle-E) Kit with 1.5m Shielded Extension Cable | Solves USB 3.0 Interference | EFR32MG21 Coordinator +20dBm for Home Assistant (ZHA), Zigbee2MQTT & Local Hub

About this item

Driver & Firmware Setup Guidance: Built for Linux, Raspberry Pi OS, Home Assistant, ZHA, and Zigbee2MQTT users; Windows/macOS may require a quick USB-to-serial driver install before use, while firmware-specific setups may benefit from coordinator firmware guidance. Digital setup resources are available in the Amazon Product Guides and Documents section and the seller support information, including CP2102N/CH9102F driver, firmware update, and browser-based Web Flasher guidance when applicable. 100% LOCAL PRIVACY WITH UNIVERSAL SUPPORT: Break free from cloud servers. As a universal Zigbee 3.0 Coordinator, this Zigbee hub acts as a central brain for thousands of devices. It seamlessly integrates SONOFF sensors (SNZB-01P/02P/03P/04P/06P/02D/02WD/02LD), ZBMINIR2, and diverse standard Zigbee 3.0 devices from major brands. Keep your data private with 100% local control, ensuring automation runs instantly even without the internet. PRE-FLASHED FOR HOME ASSISTANT & ZIGBEE2MQTT: Get started in minutes with pre-loaded EZNet 6.10.3 firmware. This Zigbee Dongle offers native plug-and-play integration for these platforms on Linux/Pi. Note for PC: While widely compatible, Windows/macOS ensures reliable connection via a standard driver installation (CP2102N/CH9102F) if not auto-detected. Perfect for beginners building a smart home system without cloud dependency or monthly fees. MAXIMUM RANGE WITH SILICON LABS EFR32MG21: Experience wall-penetrating performance. Built on the industry-leading EFR32MG21 (Series 2) chip, this ZBDongle-E gateway significantly outperforms older CC2531 units. The rotatable external SMA antenna and aluminum alloy shell (for superior cooling and interference shielding) ensure reliable coverage for up to 40 direct child devices and 100+ sub-devices, ideal for large, multi-story homes. HIGH-POWER ZIGBEE NETWORK EXTENDER & REPEATER: Go beyond a standard coordinator. While pre-configured as a gateway, this device can be flashed with router firmware to become a professional-grade Zigbee Network Extender. The included cable allows you to mount the dongle high up for maximum Line-of-Sight, while the EFR32MG21 chip delivers a massive +20dBm output. It punches signals through thick concrete walls, eliminating dead zones in garages, basements, or backyards. ELIMINATE USB 3.0 INTERFERENCE & SIGNAL DROPOUTS: Stop unstable connections on your Raspberry Pi or Mini PC. High-speed USB 3.0 ports generate noise that jams 2.4GHz Zigbee signals. This Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus-E Pro Kit includes a 1.5m (Approx. 5ft) shielded USB extension cable. By physically separating the dongle from noise sources. It is the essential solution for a rock-solid Home Assistant network, perfect for users migrating from cloud hubs to local control.
