Frequently Asked Questions
Which is the better dongle, the Smlight SLZB-07P10 or the Smlight SLZB-MRW10?
The Smlight SLZB-MRW10 is much more capable, adding a Z-Wave 800 controller, dual-network operation, network connectivity and a Bluetooth proxy. The Smlight SLZB-07P10 is cheaper and simpler, so it wins on price for a Zigbee-only USB setup.
What is the biggest difference between the Smlight SLZB-07P10 and the Smlight SLZB-MRW10?
Scope. The SLZB-MRW10 is a multi-protocol network coordinator (Zigbee plus Z-Wave 800, with dual-network) over Ethernet, PoE, Wi-Fi and USB, while the SLZB-07P10 is a USB-only Zigbee stick with a +3dB antenna. Both do Thread; only the MRW10 does Z-Wave.
Does either dongle handle Z-Wave?
Only the Smlight SLZB-MRW10, thanks to its Z-Wave Series 800 chip. It can control Z-Wave devices alongside Zigbee from one unit. The Smlight SLZB-07P10 is Zigbee (and Thread) only, so it would need a separate Z-Wave controller.
Who should buy the Smlight SLZB-MRW10?
Buy the Smlight SLZB-MRW10 if you run both Zigbee and Z-Wave and want a single network-placed coordinator that also does dual-network, Thread and Bluetooth proxy over Ethernet or PoE. It consolidates multiple radios into one central device.
Who should buy the Smlight SLZB-07P10?
Buy the Smlight SLZB-07P10 if your home is Zigbee only and you want an affordable, compact, high-power USB coordinator on the TI CC2652P10 chip. It plugs into your Home Assistant host and can be flashed as a Thread radio, without the added multi-protocol hardware or cost.
