Zigbee2MQTT on RK3588: A Sensor Network with No Vendor Cloud
Zigbee2MQTT keeps dozens of sensors on local MQTT with no vendor cloud. On RK3588, the coordinator and channel plan decide reliability.
Coordinator and channel
- Prefer ConBee II/III or SONOFF ZBDongle-E: solid Linux support and thorough community docs;
- Plan channels around Wi-Fi: Zigbee channels 15/20/25 avoid 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi’s 1/6/11 and cut dropouts sharply;
- Open permit_join only while pairing: leaving it on lets unknown devices join.
RK3588 runs Z2M plus Mosquitto for a hundred devices easily — coverage, not compute, is the real limit.
