SLZB-Ultima 3 – Multi-Radio Zigbee/Thread Adapter with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, PoE/Z-Wave/UPS Add-ons & Integrated Peripherals 2xIR/audio/WS2812/Buzzer
The SLZB-Ultima 3 is a professional multi-radio Zigbee/Thread adapter engineered for system integrators, installers, and OEM partners who need high RF performance, robust diagnostics, and advanced built-in peripherals for automation and development.
Equipped with 12× WS2812B RGB LEDs, audio output, IR receiver, IR transmitter, buzzer, 4× service LEDs and 3 buttons, the Ultima provides functionality far beyond a typical Zigbee/Thread adapter — making it equally suitable for production automation as well as R&D environments.
Powered by SMLIGHT’s SLZB-OS, SLZB-Ultima offers a unified web interface, radio tools, live logs, diagnostics, MQTT integration, and full OTA updates. Also supports ESPHome.
Its multi-radio design enables the use of Zigbee, Thread, Matter-related technologies, and Z-Wav,e depending on addons, giving installers the flexibility to deploy the adapter in multi-protocol smart-home or commercial systems.
