Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you have ConBee or RaspBee hardware and need Zigbee support in a zigpy-based system (such as Home Assistant). The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and carries no known vulnerabilities. The GPL-3.0 copyleft license is standard for this ecosystem and poses no barrier to use in open-source or personal projects. Not applicable if you use different Zigbee hardware.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.8 or later; intended for use within the zigpy ecosystem, typically via Home Assistant or similar Zigbee coordinator software.
- Low friction install with three straightforward dependencies.
- Active maintenance as of late July 2026, with recent releases and a stable repository.

What it is and what it does
zigpy-deconz is a radio adapter driver for the zigpy Zigbee stack that adds support for Dresden-Elektronik and Phoscon deCONZ-based hardware. It implements the deCONZ serial protocol to communicate with ConBee (I, II, III) and RaspBee (I, II) adapters, allowing these devices to function as Zigbee coordinators in Home Assistant and other zigpy-based applications.
The package depends on voluptuous for configuration validation, zigpy as the core Zigbee framework, and async-timeout for asynchronous communication handling. It is designed to be used as a pluggable radio type within zigpy rather than as a standalone tool, and requires Python 3.8 or later. The project is actively maintained and has no known security vulnerabilities.
Use it for
- Enable Home Assistant to use ConBee or RaspBee adapters as Zigbee coordinators for controlling Zigbee devices.
- Integrate Dresden-Elektronik deCONZ hardware into custom zigpy-based Zigbee applications.
- Replace or supplement other Zigbee radio drivers in existing zigpy deployments that have ConBee/RaspBee hardware.
- Develop Zigbee automation systems that rely on deCONZ protocol communication with Phoscon adapters.
