Broadlink RM-MAX Universal Smart Home Hub

Broadlink RM-MAX — Universal IR + RF Smart Hub

This is the device that makes your AC, TV, fan, audio system, and any 433 MHz RF device controllable from your phone. It learns the IR signals from your existing remotes — point the remote at the RM-MAX, press a button, and the hub now mimics it.

The result: one tiny puck on your TV stand replaces every remote in your house. Schedule them, group them into scenes (“Movie Night” = AC to 22°C, TV on, lights dim), or control by voice through Alexa or Google.

Why people buy it

• Make your dumb AC smart. 99% of Lebanese ACs are infrared-controlled — the RM-MAX learns your AC’s remote and now you can turn it on from outside the house. Walk into a cool room every evening.
• Bring old Chinese RF switches into the smart era. If you have those 433 MHz wireless switches around the house, the RM-MAX talks to them too — no need to replace them.
• Replace 6 remotes with one app. TV, AC, audio receiver, fan, projector, set-top box — all in one place.
• Works locally even when Wi-Fi is down. Scenes and automations stored on the RM-MAX keep running without internet.

Key Features

• IR (38 kHz) — learns and mimics any infrared remote: AC, TV, fan, projector, audio, set-top box.
• RF (433 MHz) — talks to older RF switches, garage door remotes, motorized curtains, alarm systems.
• BLE quick pairing — first-time setup is faster via Bluetooth.
• Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz) for app control from anywhere.
• Broadlink app on iOS + Android.
• Alexa + Google Home voice control.
• Scenes + routines — “Good Morning” turns on AC + lights + opens curtains in one tap.
• Local storage — automations run even without internet.

💡 Pro Tip: Place the RM-MAX in line of sight to your AC unit (it sends IR signals like a remote). Then create a scene called “Coming Home” that turns the AC on 15 minutes before you usually arrive. By the time you walk in, the room is already cool. Set it once and forget it — works every weekday at 6 PM.

⭐ Frequently Asked Questions

Will it work with my AC?

If your AC has an infrared remote, yes — virtually every AC in Lebanon uses IR. The RM-MAX learns the remote during setup. The Broadlink app also has thousands of pre-loaded AC codes (Carrier, Samsung, LG, Toshiba, etc.) — usually it auto-detects yours.

Does it work with my old RF wireless switches?

If they’re 433.92 MHz (most Chinese RF switches are), yes. During setup, hold the switch’s transmit button near the RM-MAX and the hub will capture the code.

Does it support Matter?

No — the RM-MAX uses its own app (Broadlink) and doesn’t support Matter. If Matter compatibility is critical for you, this isn’t the right hub.

Can it connect to eWeLink?

Yes — there are integration options to bring Broadlink devices into the eWeLink ecosystem. Not as seamless as a native eWeLink device, but workable.

My RF devices aren’t being detected automatically. What now?

RF auto-discovery doesn’t always work — add them manually in the app. Press “Add Device → RF → Manual Learning”, hold the original remote close to the RM-MAX, and press the button you want to teach.

Will it work with DOOYA curtain motors?

Possibly — DOOYA motors use RF (commonly 433 MHz) but the exact frequencies vary by model. Check the Broadlink app’s supported-devices list, or test before relying on it. If your DOOYA remote works at 433 MHz, the RM-MAX should learn it.

How close do I need to be when setting up?

For initial pairing, very close — within 30 cm to 1 m. After setup, you only need the original remote nearby when teaching new buttons.

Can it learn any remote, or only common ones?

Almost any — the manual learning mode captures whatever signal the original remote sends. Pre-loaded brand codes are also available for quick setup of common appliances.

Cheaper alternative?

The Broadlink RM4 Mini is the IR-only version — same idea, no RF support. Get the RM-MAX if you need RF (433 MHz) too; the RM4 Mini if you only need to control IR devices.
