Built for Smarter Local Automation
A basic smart-home hub can leave you dependent on a specific ecosystem or separate hardware for different automation functions.
The SMLIGHT SMHUB NanoMR6 takes a different approach. It combines a Linux operating system, multi-radio wireless connectivity, and local smart-home applications in one compact device, giving you an ultra-flexible foundation for building your automation system.
Run supported services locally, connect compatible Zigbee and Thread devices, create automations with Node-RED, manage MQTT communication and bridge supported Zigbee devices into Matter ecosystems—all from one compact hub.
Whether you're building a Home Assistant smart home, experimenting with local automation, integrating multiple protocols or developing a more advanced installation, the NanoMg24 gives you a practical platform without requiring a separate computer for every function.
Why Choose the SMHUB NanoMR6?
Choosing a smart home hub is about more than simply connecting devices. The software environment, connectivity, flexibility and ability to expand your system all matter.
SMHUB NanoMR6 combines:
Linux-based operating system for running supported applications locally
Dual Multi-Protocol Radios: TI CC2652P7 and SiLabs EFR32MG24 for dedicated, interference-free Zigbee and Thread operations
Zigbee2MQTT, Mosquitto, Matterbridge and Node-RED for flexible local automation
Wi-Fi 6, Ethernet and Bluetooth 5.0 for versatile connectivity
USB and microSD expansion for additional flexibility
Passive fanless cooling for quiet, continuous operation
Everything is designed around a simple goal: give you more control over how your local smart home automation system works.

The Difference You Notice Immediately
Dual-Radio Power & Flexibility
With both the TI CC2652P7 and SiLabs EFR32MG24 onboard, you no longer have to compromise. Dedicate the CC2652P7's massive routing table to a dense Zigbee2MQTT network while simultaneously running Thread Border Router / Matter on the EFR32MG24 without channel contention or radio sharing bottlenecks.
Run Smart Home Software Locally
The NanoMg24 runs supported applications directly on its Linux-based system, including Zigbee2MQTT, Mosquitto MQTT, Matterbridge and Node-RED. This gives you a local platform for managing devices and automation services.
Connect Zigbee & Thread Devices
Its integrated EFR32MG24 radio supports Zigbee and Thread applications, giving your smart-home system built-in wireless protocol capability without requiring a separate radio for these functions.
Build Flexible Automations
With Node-RED running locally, you can create automation flows that respond to supported Zigbee, MQTT, timer and other local events.
Bridge Zigbee to Matter
Matterbridge can run directly on the NanoMg24 and expose supported Zigbee devices to Matter ecosystems such as Google Home, Apple Home and Alexa.
Keep Your Setup Compact
The NanoMg24 combines computing, networking and wireless capabilities inside a compact enclosure with silent, fanless cooling, helping keep your installation clean and quiet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the NanoMR6 have two radios (CC2652P7 and EFR32MG24)?
Having dual high-performance SoCs allows you to run two distinct networks simultaneously without cross-talk or resource sharing. For example, you can assign the CC2652P7 to run a rock-solid, high-capacity Zigbee2MQTT network while utilizing the EFR32MG24 as a dedicated Thread Border Router or Matter bridge coordinator.
Does the SMHUB NanoMR6 support Zigbee? Yes. With its dual-radio hardware, the NanoMR6 can run Zigbee through either the high-capacity Texas Instruments CC2652P7 or the Silicon Labs EFR32MG24. It comes with built-in Zigbee2MQTT support, allowing you to manage your entire Zigbee mesh directly on the device.
Does it support Thread? Yes. The onboard Silicon Labs EFR32MG24 natively supports Thread and Matter. You can configure the NanoMR6 as a Thread Border Router to connect and route your Thread-enabled devices straight into your local smart home setup.
Can I use it with Home Assistant?
Yes. The NanoR6 can operate as a dedicated coordinator for Home Assistant and can also run Zigbee2MQTT locally before connecting your Zigbee devices to your preferred smart-home platform.
Can it work without cloud services?
The SMHUB Nano is designed around a local-first architecture, with its supported applications running on the device rather than requiring vendor cloud hosting. Local access to the SMHUB interface does not require a cloud account or vendor registration.
Is the NanoMg24 suitable for continuous operation?
The device is designed for smart-home and automation applications and uses passive, fanless cooling for silent operation. Its compact design makes it suitable for installations where quiet local automation hardware is preferred.
