    The Sonoff SNZB-04 uses ZigBee communication.
    To use it, it is necessary to have a special device, a gateway, which enables ZigBee devices to connect to the internet and thus to the operating application.

    Okay, but this communicator ? device or is this ZigBee application? Please tell me because I don't understand. I have the Ewelink application.
    Do I need to buy anything else to be able to use it with the Ewelink?

    thank you very much, bubuś, i am already buying this gate. Explain to me what is the technical purpose of using such a gateway? Can't they be paired straight away like the others that you can see right away in EWELINK? What are these gates for?

    This I think I am beginning to understand in such a configuration the devices can consume very little energy.

    This is one of the advantages of ZigBee.
    By creating their own network they don't clutter the Wi-Fi signal and don't clog up the router, at my place I had to make a separate Wi-Fi router just for the Smart Home devices because the wireless internet at home was pulling a maximum of 30 Mbps.
    Also, having already set up the whole ZigBee system with the gateway, they work together even when there is no Wi-Fi at all.
    This is why I am slowly moving to this type of communication.

    Thanks to the help of @bubu1769, I bought a gateway and everything is working.

Topic summary

The Sonoff SNZB-04 door opening sensor operates using ZigBee communication protocol, requiring a ZigBee gateway (bridge) to connect the sensor to the internet and the eWeLink application. The gateway acts as a central hub that enables ZigBee devices to network and communicate with the app, as ZigBee devices cannot connect directly without it. Examples of compatible gateways include the Sonoff Bridge Pro and other ZigBee 3.0 mini gateways supported by eWeLink. Using ZigBee reduces Wi-Fi congestion and allows devices to operate with low power consumption, maintaining functionality even without Wi-Fi. The gateway is essential for integrating the SNZB-04 sensor into a smart home system via the eWeLink app.
