Aqara M3 Smart Home USB Hub HM-G01D

Aqara M3 Smart Home USB Hub HM-G01D

Experience the future of smart home automation with Aqara Hub M3, delivering continuous connectivity and enhanced privacy. Seamlessly integrate Aqara and Matter devices with its multi-protocol support, local operations, and powerful features like IR control integration. Effortless setup, energy-efficient automations, and superior connectivity redefine convenience in your smart home.

The Hub M3 redefines smart home automation with its commitment to privacy and local operations—no internet or hub required. It offers versatile connectivity options such as dual-band Wi-Fi and PoE, and includes a 360° IR blaster that connects your AC to Matter, adjusting to real-time temperatures from the Climate Sensor. As a multiprotocol hub, it integrates seamlessly with Aqara and, for the first time, third-party Matter devices, ensuring both privacy and effortless setup.

Aqara Hub M3 Features:

• Support Multi Protocol and Matter: Experience effortless smart living with the M3 Hub, your one-stop solution for connecting Aqara Zigbee and Thread devices to the Matter ecosystem. No more worrying about wireless protocols; just enjoy the convenience and features of your smart devices.*

• Edge Computing & Effortless Local Control: The M3 improves upon older Aqara hubs by moving automations from cloud to local**, enhancing stability and device management. Its “hub replacement” feature allows easy upgrades from older models, ensuring seamless automation and control.***

• IR controller integration with Matter: Gain seamless control of your IR and AC Thermostat devices with the M3 through Matter, introducing Apple Home’s first IR support. Position the M3 near your air conditioner and see every remote adjustment, from temperature to settings, instantly reflected on the M3 app for a unified smart home experience.

• Superior Wired and Wireless Connectivity: Enjoy faster speeds, better coverage, and more reliable internet with dual-band Wi-Fi and an RJ45 port, plus flexible power options through PoE and Type-C.****

• Focus on Privacy and Encrypted Storage: The M3 enhances your privacy by keeping your data secure on the device itself, without uploading to the cloud, ensuring your personal information stays private.

• Effortless Setup, Anywhere You Want: The M3 is designed for flexibility, offering various power and connectivity options plus easy app setup, making it user-friendly for beginners across different installation scenarios.*****

• Powerful Speaker for Alerts and Announcements: The M3 hub comes with a speaker that not only plays sounds but also custom ringtones to meet your needs. For instance, it can automatically sound an alarm when the Motion and Light Sensor P2 detects someone, aligning perfectly with your requirements.

* At launch, third-party device support is a Lab feature, limited to three brands, each supporting specific device types: Philips Hue (Single-Color, CCT, RGB CCT lights), Leviton (Electrical Switches and Dimmers), and Google Nest (Thermostats).

** Some automations will still require the cloud connection to be executed: – Push notifications – Weather and sunrise/sunset – Geofencing.

*** The automations and scenes involving the migrated devices need to be re-configured in Matter and HomeKit; while cloud integrations such as Google Home and Alexa will retain all the configurations.

**** 2A USB power adapter is not included.

***** Ensure the number of obstacles between each device is minimized and appropriately add Zigbee repeaters to maximize the device’s relay capabilities.

Automations:

• M3 is a perfect addition of your existing Aqara setup

If you’re familiar with Aqara Home and hubs, with the M3, you have two options: make it the lead over other Aqara Zigbee hubs to boost local automation, or migrate all Zigbee Aqara devices to M3 for an even stronger setup.

• Fully functional air conditioning thermostat by simply connecting a Climate Sensor

With its built-in IR blaster, the M3 can control your IR devices like air conditioners. Connect it to an Aqara Climate Sensor to trigger automations based on room temperature and integrate your AC with third-party apps like Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home through Matter.

• Easy energy savings based on a precise presence detectionIF Absence is detected in on the first floor, THEN Set the first floor thermostat to energy-saving mode

IF Absence is detected in on the first floor, THEN Set the first floor thermostat to energy-saving mode

Save energy significantly with the Aqara Presence Sensor, which activates your thermostat as soon as you leave the room or floor. Plus, automations run locally for unmatched stability.

• Fully automated light control based on motion and brightness

Save energy significantly with the Aqara Presence Sensor, which activates your thermostat as soon as you leave the room or floor. Plus, automations run locally for unmatched stability.

IF Motion is detected, WHEN Brightness is lower than 100 lux, THEN Set the Ceiling Light to Bright Cold White, THEN Turn on the Ceiling Light

You will be able to schedule different automations based on the brightness in the room to achieve circadian lighting and ambient control: the light will change its color temperature according to the time of the day and turn on or off only when it’s really needed.
