Zigbee Bridge Pro Hub, Wi-Fi & Zigbee Dual-protocol, App Control, Multi-device Management, Compatible with SONOFF Devices

I’m trying to get some home automation set up in an old stone wall house. I have managed to pair temperature and humidity sensors and motion sensors (all Sonoff). But some sensors are dropping off; I believe this is because some are too far away from the hub. So the solution will be to extend and build a mesh network with powered (router) Zigbee devices. The problem has been finding devices that will pair to this hub. Aqara devices will not pair. I can confirm Ikea tradfri light bulbs will pair with this hub. So I will use these to build and extend my mesh network. These bulbs must be within 5cms of the hub during pairing. My solution was to power the bulb in its final position, then bring the hub to the bulb. I did this by powering the Sonoff Zigbee bridge pro off a usb battery power bank, then used the ewelink app for the pairing process. Then returned the hub to its normal operating position. So far this has worked. I will update this review when I can see if this improves the end sensors devices dropping out. Update Dec 2024 I now use 3 of these. This is a farm with several outbuildings. My Wi-Fi signal can reach the other outbuildings (just). so I put a Sonoff Pro bridge hub in the Polytunnel (where sheep are lambed) and another in the Portacabin (farm office). The Zigbee devices are then connected to the Sonoff hub in their location . From the Ewelink app I can turn on/off lights, kettles; monitor temperature in all the different locations. The furthest distance would be about 50 metres from the internet router in the house. The Portacabin used to be a problem running wi-fi smart devices. Its a metal building so wi-fi from the house didn’t operate at the back of it; but the Wi-Fi signal did reach the front of the building; so I sited the Sonoff pro bridge there and all the Zigbee devices inside the portacabin work perfectly when paired to that hub. In the Polytunnel the Sonoff Pro hub is used to control a water heater, light and a kettle. At 2 am in the morning when you need to move quickly to assist a sheep lambing. I have a routine that switches on the lights that get me from the house to the Polytunnel, turns on the water in the kettle in the Polytunnel, and switches everything off in the house as I leave. Then I have another routine that turns off things in the Polytunnel as I leave to go back to the house, which includes switching on the electric blanket so I can climb into a warm bed. I have mostly used Sonoff devices with these hubs, ie motion sensor, door sensor, temperature humidity, button switches and no neutral switches. The IKEA tradfri bulbs have been super reliable at extending the mesh. The biggest problem I’ve had is getting uk Zigbee smart plugs. I did get Woolley Zigbee smart plugs of Amazon (I have 8). They are often unavailable. But they are superb, very reliable with this hub and Ewelink. They offer scheduling and power monitoring. If your having problems with things going off line, then consider either extending your mesh with the bulbs and smart plugs; or divide your space with a second hub, having first ensured your wi-fi reaches the weak area. Then there’s the house. It’s been undergoing some renovation. The old (oil) boiler is about 50 years old. It used to be wired into one those manual timers. The ones that you clicked in out little pegs to turn it on off; and every time the time changed you had to reset the timer. (Misery). The kitchen got updated with underfloor heating, still working off the old boiler. The plumber cut the wiring off the old timer and wired on an ordinary plug on the end. It’s plugged into a Woolley Zigbee smart plug ; and it’s running the central heating. The smart plug can be scheduled to come on/off at whatever time I want. But more useful is the Sonoff temperature monitor. It’s in the kitchen and a scene on Ewelink controls the Woolley plug turning on/off the heating, Simple and cheap and it works.

The SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro does exactly what it’s supposed to. Setup was straightforward in the eWeLink app, and it’s been solid and reliable ever since. I’m using it with SONOFF TRVs and Zigbee switches, and the whole system works like a dream — stable connections, quick responses, and everything stays nicely integrated in one place. If you’re building a SONOFF/eWeLink-based Zigbee setup, this hub is an easy recommendation.

In my quest to elevate home automation, I integrated the SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro Hub along with the eWeLink app, and the results have been genuinely transformative. Setting up the Zigbee Bridge Pro was refreshingly straightforward. Guided by the user-friendly eWeLink app, connecting the hub to my Wi-Fi network and Zigbee devices was seamless. In just minutes, the hub was operational, ready to redefine my living space. The eWeLink app plays a pivotal role in this experience. Its intuitive interface and step-by-step instructions made the setup process a breeze. I appreciated how it seamlessly guided me through connecting my devices, ensuring that I was up and running in no time. The app's compatibility with the Zigbee Bridge Pro is seamless. Controlling and managing a diverse range of Zigbee devices, from lights to sensors, felt effortless. The eWeLink app's interface made it easy to monitor and control these devices with a few simple taps. A standout feature of the eWeLink app is its integration with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant. This added another layer of convenience to my smart home experience. With voice commands, managing connected devices became even more intuitive, transforming my home into a haven of hands-free automation. However, it's important to note that while the eWeLink app offers substantial functionality, there were instances where I encountered minor performance hiccups. These occasional delays led to a slightly less seamless experience. While these occurrences were infrequent, they did impact my overall satisfaction, prompting me to give this review a 4-star rating. Despite this limitation, the Zigbee Bridge Pro's unobtrusive design makes it an easy fit in any room, and the eWeLink app complements this with its simple yet effective interface. Together, they empower your smart home setup without drawing unnecessary attention. In conclusion, the SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro Hub, paired with the eWeLink app, has exceeded my expectations in many ways. From its straightforward setup and compatibility with a diverse range of devices to the app's seamless control capabilities, it's a must-have for anyone seeking to enhance their home automation. This duo has not only simplified my daily life but also added a touch of futuristic convenience to my living space. For a seamless, responsive, and efficient smart home experience, the Zigbee Bridge Pro Hub and eWeLink app deserve a central place in your setup, despite the occasional performance hiccups.

Very impressive. It’s small and very lightweight, so it’s easy to tuck away somewhere and it connected straight away to the network. I’ve only added a few switches so far, but they were easy to add and each work perfectly.

Already frustrated that Tapo and Smart Life don't integrate except through Alexa, I wanted to add Zigbee sensors and smart switches to my Smart Life setup. The SONOFF smart buttons dropped off the Smart Life Zigbee gateway, even when the gateway was moved to the nearest socket in the same room, and only one switch function was accessible, so I had to be the gateway or both buttons. It was more likely to be the singular gateway, so bought this one to see of the expected button functionality was there. I never got to find out as it doesn't work with Smart Life and required me to use eWeLink. That's a deal-breaker. Returned the hub and the smart switches. I won't be back to SONOFF, it was a wrong turn!

Ce SONOFF Zigbee Hub, c’est clairement le “chef d’orchestre invisible” de ma maison connectée. Avant : j’avais des objets “intelligents” qui vivaient chacun leur vie sans se parler. Après : j’ai un petit manager numérique qui essaye de mettre tout le monde d’accord. L’installation est assez simple, mais ensuite tu entres dans le vrai monde de la domotique : “Pourquoi cette ampoule refuse de coopérer ?” “Pourquoi ce capteur a décidé de disparaître ?” Et toi au milieu, en mode détective privé du Wi-Fi. Mais quand tout fonctionne… c’est satisfaisant. Lumières, capteurs, automatisations… j’ai l’impression de vivre dans une maison qui répond (parfois mieux que les gens). Bref : petit boîtier discret, mais grand pouvoir de chaos… et d’ordre quand il est de bonne humeur.

Çok başarılı.Kendi ürünleri ve diğer bazı markalarla bağlantı özelliği ekstra.Çok kolay kurulum.Şık ve küçük Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim. SONOFF ZigBee ürünleri mükemmel..

Ho acquistato il SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro (ZB Bridge‑P / ZB‑B) come “cuore” della mia rete Zigbee casalinga e, dopo qualche mese di uso, posso dire che è una scelta molto sensata, soprattutto se vuoi qualcosa di pronto all’uso, stabile e senza troppe sbavature. La prima cosa che colpisce è la semplicità di setup: attacchi l’alimentazione, lo colleghi in Wi‑Fi tramite l’app eWeLink, e in pochi minuti hai già il ponte Zigbee attivo e i primi dispositivi SONOFF/Zigbee già rilevati. Nessuna complicazione open‑source, nessun server da gestire, ideale per chi non vuole perdere tempo in configurazioni complesse. Le prestazioni della rete sono molto solide: il bridge supporta fino a 128 dispositivi Zigbee, ma già con una decina di luci, sensori e interruttori la comunicazione è rapida e senza lag evidenti. La combinazione Zigbee 3.0 + Wi‑Fi fa il suo lavoro bene, permettendo di controllare i dispositivi Zigbee anche dall’esterno, senza problemi di comunicazione. Molto apprezzata la possibilità di fare automazioni e scene eseguite localmente, anche senza connessione internet. Questo è un punto forte: le luci e i sensori reagiscono in tempo reale, senza dover aspettare che il server risponda. Inoltre, il supporto alle modalità Home/Away/Sleep rende molto comoda la gestione della sicurezza domestica, attivando e disattivando le azioni in modo rapido e intuitivo. Da notare anche che molti dispositivi plug‑in possono funzionare da router Zigbee, estendendo la copertura della rete senza dover aggiungere ripetitori dedicati. In un appartamento medio, con due o tre prese intelligenti posizionate bene, ho ottenuto una copertura senza buchi quasi perfetta. Un piccolo difetto: se sei abituato a ecosistemi molto flessibili (come Home Assistant o Zigbee2MQTT), qua devi passare per eWeLink e non tutti i dispositivi Zigbee terzi sono perfettamente supportati. Però, per chi vuole una smart‑home basata sui dispositivi SONOFF e qualche sensore Zigbee comune, è un compromesso che si accetta volentieri. In sintesi, il SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro è un ottimo hub Zigbee 3.0 “entry‑mid”: stabile, semplice da usare, ben integrato con l’app eWeLink, e con capacità più che sufficienti per la maggior parte delle case. Se stai iniziando con Zigbee o vuoi razionalizzare la tua rete smart, lo consiglio caldamente.

Four months ago i purchased a new house and a whole home heatpump system, but the temp felt off. The family was always baking (summer time). So i purchased 3x of the SONOFF SNZB-02, a ZigBee temperature sensors to spread around the house. ZigBee because i already had 3x eero 6 pros and wanted to use their built in ZigBee network. eero's zigbee implementation is total garbage. Devices would go offline daily, re-pairing was the only way to get them back online. In addition you have to use the Alexa app, which offers zero configuration, tracking, battery life status, or history. So after research i went with the zb bridge-p (SONOFF Zigbee Bridge Pro). Its been fantastic. Zero devices have gone offline. History reporting. Firmware updates. Device configuration options. All in a clean and pretty interface. But the best part is home assistant integration. By using AlexxIT's SonoffLAN integration, all features are working. No firmware flashing or warranty voiding required. The only downside i have found is that the devices have to be on your lan network. When they were on my IOT isolated network, home assistant could not interact. 10/10 recommend.
