Zigbee

Note

Support for Zigbee R22 has been deprecated in nRF Connect SDK v2.8.0 and it will be removed in one of the future releases, following the deprecation policy. As a result, the nRF52833, nRF52840 and nRF5340 SoCs are not recommended for new Zigbee designs. Experimental support for Zigbee R23 is available for the nRF54L Series as an nRF Connect SDK Add-on.

Zigbee is a portable, low-power software networking protocol that provides connectivity over a mesh network based on the IEEE 802.15.4 radio protocol. It also defines an application layer that provides interoperability among all Zigbee devices.

The nRF Connect SDK provides support for developing Zigbee applications based on the third-party precompiled ZBOSS stack. This stack is included as the ZBOSS Zigbee stack library in nrfxlib (version 3.11.5.0). In combination with the integrated Zephyr RTOS, Zigbee in nRF Connect SDK allows for development of low-power connected solutions.
