Zigbee 3.0 over IEEE 802.15.4, TLSR8656 chip, per the specification table and Zigbee2MQTT
Smart timer schedules, loop timers, inching and smart scenes in eWeLink
The switch mounts on a standard DIN rail.
Sonoff Basic DIN Rail Zigbee Smart Switch manufacturer product page →Maximum current does not establish suitability for every appliance or inrush load; follow the installation guide.
Document check only; not a hands-on test or verification of every regional or firmware variant.
Standard 35mm DIN rail mounting inside an electrical distribution box
The double-pole output switches the live and neutral conductors, so the contact is not potential-free
It measures voltage, current, power and energy.

Real-time monitoring of voltage, current, power and energy consumption, with 180 days of stored history and export
A physical button controls on/off and enters pairing mode on a long press
Zigbee2MQTT lists this device as supporting OTA updates
Power-On State is a documented setting: ON, Off or Last state after an outage
The output terminals carry the switched live and neutral wires to the load
No external switch terminal: the single circuit is switched from the app, Zigbee or an automation
It also acts as a Zigbee router.

The product page states it also functions as a Zigbee router to extend network coverage
A reliable connection is crucial for your Zigbee network. ZBMINIR2, as a Zigbee router device with Turbo Mode, boosts signal strength and expands coverage for optimal performance.
The SONOFF knowledge center lists Alexa voice control (open/close) through eWeLink account linking
The product page states it works with Apple Home via a SONOFF Matter bridge (ZBBridge-U, iHost or eWeLink CUBE). Apple Home has no Zigbee radio of its own.
SONOFF lists this model among the Zigbee devices its Matter bridges (Zigbee Bridge Ultra, iHost, NSPanel Pro) publish to Matter, which is how it reaches the Apple Home app. Apple Home has no Zigbee radio of its own.
The SONOFF knowledge center lists Google Home voice control (open/close) after the device is added to the eWeLink app and the account is linked
Zigbee2MQTT supports this exact model and exposes state, power-on behaviour, inching, voltage, current, power and energy totals, plus the overload thresholds
The switch itself is Zigbee, not Matter: SONOFF republishes it into Matter through its own bridges (ZBBridge-U, iHost, eWeLink CUBE with a SONOFF Zigbee dongle).
The device is not Matter itself: SONOFF lists it among the Zigbee models its Matter bridges (Zigbee Bridge Ultra, iHost, NSPanel Pro) republish into Matter.
The SONOFF knowledge center lists SmartThings voice control (open/close), and the compatibility table pairs it through the Aeotec Smart Home Hub V3 as a standard Zigbee device
Rated 100-240V~ 50/60Hz 32A Max, single-phase only per the specification table
Mains AC only: the specification table limits it to single-phase 100-240V use
It wires L and N in and out (double-pole switching), so a neutral conductor is required
The specification table rates the relay 32A Max with a maximum load of 7680W
The manufacturer states a maximum current of 32 A.
