Hue Bridge Pro (EU, EAN 8720169155114) takes 150+ lights and 50+ accessories, by Philips' count. Hue devices talk Zigbee to it, and it connects to your router by Ethernet (recommended) or Wi-Fi. Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings are listed on Philips' EU page, and Matter works through the bridge, which is how Home Assistant gets it.

• Radio: Philips lists Zigbee and Bluetooth, and says the Pro joins the router by Wi-Fi or the included Ethernet cable (Ethernet recommended). The spec line 'works without Wi-Fi' means a Wi-Fi link isn't required.
• Hub: It is the hub.
• Local control: Not confirmed. Philips says some AI-based features can run on the hub without relying solely on the cloud.
• Connects devices over: Hue lights and accessories over Zigbee.
• Matter bridge: Philips says Matter works through the bridge; check Philips for which Hue products pass through.
• Thread border router: Philips's pages don't mention Thread for the Bridge Pro. A Matter Alpha page calls it a Matter border router, which is not a Thread claim.
• Max devices: Philips gives two separate limits: 150+ lights and 50+ accessories, so no single number is recorded.

Before you buy

• Philips lists the limits as 150+ lights and 50+ accessories, not one total.
• Home Assistant support is through Matter; its Hue integration page names only V1 and V2 bridges, not the Pro.
• Philips doesn't mention Thread for the Bridge Pro, so don't count on it as a Thread border router.
