Sonoff ZBM5-3C-86W (3-channel) Zigbee smart wall touch switch

Discover the convenience of smart lighting control with the Sonoff ZBM5-3C-86W, a three-channel Zigbee touch-sensitive switch that works in both neutral and neutral-wire installations. With the eWeLink app and Zigbee gateway, you can easily integrate it to remotely control your lights from your smartphone or by voice via Alexa or Google Home. You can set schedules, create smart scenes and automations, and the relay disconnection function will allow your smart bulbs to stay connected even when you turn off the switch. The Sonoff ZBM5-3C-86W ensures seamless interoperability with open source systems, giving you complete control over the lighting in your home - no matter how new your installation is.

Compatible with your home

The Sonoff ZBM5 switch is designed to fit most home installations – both those without a neutral wire (typical of buildings built before the 1980s) and those with a neutral wire (found in newer or renovated buildings). This solution will allow you to fully exploit the potential of automation, whether you live in an older or newer home.

Control in your hands

Control your lighting from anywhere in the world with the eWeLink app, available for iOS and Android. You can check the status of the switch at any time, turn the lights on or off remotely, and adjust the settings to suit your needs. Please note that the device requires a compatible SONOFF Zigbee gateway, such as iHost, NSPanel Pro, ZBBridge-U, ZBBridge-P, or ZBDongle-E/-P, to fully utilize the remote control features.

For your convenience

Get a good night's sleep by setting a schedule to automatically turn off the lights in your living room or bedroom at a desired time. With the scheduling feature in the app, you can set when the lights should turn off, supporting a healthier day and night rhythm in your home. Got your hands full? Turn on the lights with a simple voice command. The switch works with Alexa and Google Home, allowing you to conveniently control your lights without touching your phone. In addition, with support for Zigbee2MQTT and ZHA, Sonoff ZBM5 easily integrates with open source platforms to create a complete smart home system that works with devices from different manufacturers.

Automation and smart scenes

Create personalized scenes tailored to your lifestyle. With the Zigbee protocol, you can set up two-way control of your bedroom lights using a Zigbee wireless button or automate the on and off of your lights based on a Zigbee sensor signal. This solution allows you to simplify your daily activities by automating your lighting according to your needs. Sonoff ZBM5 also allows you to use the disconnect relay function so that your smart bulbs do not lose power when the wall switch is turned off.

Same summary

The Sonoff ZBM5-3C-86W smart wall switch is suitable for anyone who wants to upgrade the lighting in their home, apartment or workplace and easily connect it to a Zigbee smart system. Due to the possibility of touch control, via an app or voice (e.g. with Alexa/Google Home), it works best in environments where convenience and multi-channel control are key. Before starting use, it is important to check whether you have a Zigbee hub, as it is required for compatibility in most smart systems. The switch is less suitable for those who do not plan on wider automation or a Zigbee platform.
