Questions About Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch
How many switches does Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch have?
Switches: 1. Check how the switch inputs map to controlled loads and any scene functions.
View Switches specifications →What is the resistive-load power of Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch?
Resistive Maximum Load Power: 2400W. This is a resistive-load field. Do not apply the same limit to a motor or another load type without the manufacturer’s rating.
View Resistive Maximum Load Power specifications →Does Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch support a wireless-switch mode?
Yes, according to the listed specifications. Check what this mode does in the manufacturer’s documentation; do not infer wiring or power requirements from the label. Detach Relay Mode separates the button from the relay output, so the paddle sends a Zigbee command instead of cutting the circuit and a smart bulb downstream stays powered.
View Wireless Switch Mode specifications →Does Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch support Matter?
Matter is listed as “SONOFF Hub required”. The stated condition applies to this feature. Verify the exact device type, firmware and features exposed in your chosen platform. Matter support is not proof of feature parity. The switch is Zigbee 3.0, not Matter (SONOFF sells the Matter-over-WiFi Orb-MW1 as a separate model). Its product page documents reaching Matter platforms through a SONOFF Matter bridge, ZBBridge-U or eWeLink CUBE.
View Matter specifications →Does Sonoff Orb-ZBW1 Zigbee Smart Wall Switch work with Home Assistant?
Yes, according to the listed specifications. Check the exact integration and firmware. A catalog integration label does not establish local control, official support or available entities. SONOFF's product page names Home Assistant among the supported gateways, and documents configuring the switch's Zigbee Binding from within Home Assistant.
