Zigbee USB Signal Amplifier Extender - Repeater For Tuya Home Assistant & Zigbee2MQTT

About This Product

So if you're dealing with weak Zigbee signals in your smart home setup, this USB signal amplifier could be a game-changer. It's basically a repeater that extends your Zigbee network coverage by about 15-20 meters, which is huge if you have devices that keep dropping off because they're too far from your hub. What's clever about this thing is that it uses a 'Smart Light Switch - 1 gang' as a Zigbee router to boost the signal - it's a low-cost solution compared to buying additional hubs or more expensive repeaters. It works with Tuya Smart APP once you add it to your system, and it's compatible with several platforms including Home Assistant with Zigbee2MQTT, Tasmota, and even works with Hue bridges. Setting it up is pretty straightforward - it comes in pairing mode by default with the LED flashing, but if you need to re-pair it, you can either press the button until the LED flashes or power it off and on five times. The black plastic housing is compact enough to plug into any USB port without being obtrusive. One thing to note - if you need the signal to go through multiple solid walls, you might want to consider adding more of these repeaters to create a stronger mesh network. It only requires one main hub to work, and it effectively connects Tuya Zigbee gateways with other Zigbee devices that might be just out of range. For the price, it's a simple but effective way to solve distance problems in larger homes or spaces with lots of signal interference.
