Product detailed description

🛡️The Perfect Combination of Security, Reliability, and Long Range

The Sonoff Z-Wave 800 Dongle Plus is a high-performance USB Z-Wave adapter built on the latest 800 series Z-Wave chip (EFR32ZG23). It supports S2 security, provides strong anti-interference performance, and ensures reliable communication with your Z-Wave devices. Pre-flashed with the latest Z-Wave firmware, it offers an easy plug-and-play setup via USB.

It works with Z-Wave certified products from various manufacturers and categories, allowing for unified control and seamless automation across your ecosystem. It supports open-source platforms like Home Assistant and openHAB, and is compatible with most Z-Wave frequencies worldwide.

💾 High-Performance Chip

With 512 KB of Flash and 64 KB of RAM, along with a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 processor, it provides ample resources and powerful computing capabilities.

🔒 S2 Security Standard

Built on the high-level Z-Wave S2 security standard, it encrypts communication between smart devices, protecting your data and ensuring a safer environment.

📶 Interference-Resistant Control

Enjoy local, cloud-free control with Z-Wave mesh and LR technology for extended coverage, operating on a separate frequency from Wi-Fi to minimize interference.

Thanks to the 2 dBi external antenna with adjustable angles and Z-Wave Long Range (ZWLR) technology, it supports connections over 1,000 meters, greatly expanding coverage. Whether dealing with garage doors, outdoor patios, or devices in low-signal areas (such as basements), it provides stable point-to-point control, keeping remote devices always within reach.

📝 Note: This distance was tested by a laboratory in an open environment.

It comes with a USB extension cable (1 m), which allows you to place the Z-Wave Dongle further away from interference sources for better signal quality, making it a powerful and reliable solution for building a robust Z-Wave network.

By flashing different firmware, you can also add Zigbee or Thread devices. These options are available for both USB and PoE versions.
