Using a smart home device from another manufacturer in the home network
You can also register smart home devices from other manufacturers with your FRITZ!Box, for example motion detectors, door/window contacts, smart switches, smart plugs, roller shutter motors.
The connection between the smart home device and the FRITZ!Box is established using the DECT ULE protocol HAN FUN. This allows you to register all smart home devices with the FRITZ!Box that the manufacturer has declared to be compatible with DECT ULE/HAN FUN.
Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.
Requirements / Restrictions
- Radiator controllers, for example FRITZ!DECT 302, cannot be switched via smart home devices from other manufacturers.
- A maximum of ten smart home devices from another manufacturer can be registered with the FRITZ!Box.
