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.
