Wireless frequency and radio technology impact range, interference resistance, and interoperability. Most Thread devices operate on the 2.4GHz band using IEEE 802.15.4, which is robust and widely supported. Some products, like the Home Assistant SkyConnect, use advanced multi-protocol radios capable of running both Zigbee and Thread concurrently, providing flexibility and future expansion. Hubs such as the Homey Pro support additional frequencies (e.g., 433MHz, Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiFi), which can be beneficial for integrating legacy devices or achieving greater coverage. The range of radio technologies available ensures that you can find a solution tailored to your environment and existing device mix.
