Home automation gateways are the perfect way to create a home management system connecting lights to your smart devices like iPhone, iPad or Apple TV. Adding a 2.4GHz or 433MHz Gateway/RF home automation Hub to your home installation will enable you to control your 2.4GHz or 433MHz Mi-Light / Mi-Boxer LED lighting from your smartphone.
There are several Gateway home automation options for lighting control systems, including a Wireless Gateway or a Wired Gateway (the 433MHz Gateway is wireless only). Both types connect to your router, one wirelessly and the other through a wired connection.
Wireless and Wired Gateway Control
If you want to control your home automation system locally (within range of your WiFi router), you can install the wireless gateway. To control your system from outside your location (even overseas), you will need the wired gateway, which connects directly to your home router.
Voice Control for Smart Lighting
Home automation also allows you to control your smart lights using voice commands through third party speakers such as Amazon Alexa or Google Home.
