Roles it can fill
Zigbee 3.0 color accent bar that stands, lies flat, or mounts behind a TV; its power supply drives up to three bars. Runs locally through the Hue Bridge via the hue integration, or pairs directly to ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT with no bridge (no Hue entertainment or sync). Screen sync needs a Hue HDMI sync box or the Sync TV app. The Bridge exposes it to Matter. Bluetooth is app-only and not a Home Assistant path.
