Product Details

Most smart wall switches ask for a neutral wire. Plenty of Lebanese flats, especially older ones, do not have one at the switch box. The ZBM5 works either way – you wire it to whatever your wall actually has.

Available in 1, 2 and 3 gang, in the 120 type size, in white. It is a mechanical switch, so it feels like a switch and anyone in the house can use it without being told anything.

With a neutral connected it also becomes a Zigbee router. That is worth more than it sounds: every switch you install strengthens the mesh and improves the range of every sensor and device around it. Without a neutral it runs as an end device instead, and the load needs to draw at least 3W.

Detach relay mode separates the button from the power. With it on, the physical switch stops cutting the circuit and instead sends a signal – useful for smart bulbs, which need constant power to stay reachable. If the switch ever goes offline, physical control comes straight back.

It pairs with Sonoff Zigbee gateways and works with Home Assistant through a ZBDongle using ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT, with timers and schedules in the app. Pick your gang count below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a neutral wire?
No. The ZBM5 works in both neutral and no-neutral wiring. In no-neutral mode the light it controls must draw at least 3W.
Does it need a hub?
Yes. It is a Zigbee switch and needs a Sonoff Zigbee gateway such as the Bridge Pro, Bridge Ultra, NSPanel Pro or iHost.
What is detach relay mode?
It separates the button from the power. The physical switch stops cutting the circuit and sends a signal instead, so smart bulbs keep their power and stay reachable.
Will it still work if the internet goes down?
Yes. The physical switch always controls the light directly. Scenes through the gateway work locally too.
Will it fit my wall box?
This is the 120 type size, 120 x 74 mm. Measure your existing box before ordering - the 80 and 86 type sizes are different.
Does it improve my Zigbee network?
Yes, when wired with a neutral. It then acts as a Zigbee router and extends the mesh for nearby sensors and devices.
