Want to make your home smarter without tearing up your walls? With Orvibo’s in-wall Zigbee smart switches, you can upgrade your traditional light switches to smart ones—without any rewiring. It’s the easiest way to retrofit smart lighting into your home, villa, or apartment in the UAE.
🛠️ What Is the Orvibo In-Wall Zigbee Smart Switch?
The Orvibo In-Wall Smart Switch is a compact device that fits behind your existing wall switch. It connects to your smart home system via Zigbee, enabling app control, scene automation, and voice commands—while keeping your current switch plates intact.
✅ Available in two models:
Single Live Wire (R20W2Z) – No neutral required
Neutral + Live Wire (R30W3Z) – Higher power load, requires neutral wire
🧱 Fits in standard 86mm wall boxes commonly used in UAE homes.
⚡ No Rewiring Needed (In Most Cases)
If your switch box has a live wire (and ideally a neutral, depending on model), you don’t need to do any wall chasing or rewiring.
✅ Compatible With:
Traditional wall switches (rocker/paddle types)
Zigbee 3.0 gateways like the Orvibo Hub or MixPad
UAE-standard electrical setups
Alexa & Google Assistant (via Orvibo Hub)
💡 Letronic Tip: Use the Single Live model for quick, low-power upgrades in living rooms or bedrooms. Use Neutral + Live where more load is needed (e.g., for chandeliers or multi-light circuits).
🔌 Quick Installation Guide
⚠️ Always hire a qualified electrician for installation.
Turn off power at the main breaker.
Remove your wall switch and gently pull out the wiring.
Connect the module to the live and load wires (neutral if required).
Push the module into the wall box.
Replace the original switch plate.
Use the HomeMate app to pair it with your Zigbee hub.
Start creating automations and scenes!
