Xiaomi Mi Smart Plug ZigBee Edition

Xiaomi Smart plug ZigBee Edition requires Mi Smart Home Multifunctional Gateway and Mi App.

Remote control of electrical appliances with ZigBee

ZigBee is an IEEE 802.15.4-based specification for a suite of high-level communication protocols used to create personal area networks with small, low-power digital transmitter.

You don’t have to worry about forgetting to turn off the equipment when you are not at home.

You can check the status of electrical appliances and activate an automatic shutdown timer for each of them with the help of the application even when you are not at home.

The Mi app will allow you to monitor the status of gadgets and manage their energy consumption.

For the smart plug to work, you will need a Xiaomi Multi-functional Gateway connected to the network. Even if the Wi-Fi connection is disconnected, the plug will remain “smart” thanks to the multi-functional gateway.
