SONOFF Z-Wave 800 Dongle Plus – Z-Wave USB controller, LR, grey (Dongle-PZG23)

The SONOFF Z-Wave 800 Dongle Plus is a high-performance USB Z-Wave adapter built on the latest Z-Wave 800 series chip (EFR32ZG23). The device enables direct, local control of Z-Wave devices – such as sensors, relays, switches, and smart locks – without requiring a cloud connection.
It is an ideal choice for Home Assistant, openHAB, or other platforms that use Z-Wave JS. Thanks to its Plug & Play design, it can be easily connected to any USB port and used immediately as a Z-Wave gateway in your smart home system.
The dongle also supports Z-Wave Long Range technology, enabling wireless communication over several hundred meters in open space. Additionally, with the S2 Security standard, it ensures safe, encrypted data transmission.
The package includes a 2 dBi external SMA antenna and a USB extension cable, which helps reduce interference from USB ports and provides more stable performance.
