Ultimate smart control
The Hue Bridge makes it possible to control your lights any way you want – from anywhere with an internet connection.
Sensors, switches and more
The Hue Bridge brings even more customisation to your accessories. Choose how your smart switches, buttons and sensors, and the Tap dial switch control your lights.
Instant light response
The Hue Bridge uses Zigbee to communicate with your lights and accessories. Your lights react instantly, and you’ll be able to control them even when your Wi-Fi is down.
Extend your range
Your lights create a mesh network. Each light you add acts as a repeater, so you can extend your lights throughout your home – inside and out.
Easy to install
Plug the Hue Bridge in to a power source, connect it to your router and follow the step-by-step instructions in the Philips Hue app. Changing internet providers or swapping your router? Everything is stored on the Bridge, so you won’t have to set anything up again.

The Bridge enables Matter, the new foundation for connected things. That means that your Philips Hue lights and accessories automatically support Matter – and you can easily integrate other smart home brands through Matter too.
