The new Hue Bridge Pro has been leaked to the public, and the first technical data has already appeared. I have noticed numerous questions about PoE on social media and here in the comments. Power over Ethernet, or the power supply of a device via the network cable. Currently, it does not look as if the new Hue Bridge Pro will also offer Power over Ethernet, but I do not want to completely rule out the possibility of PoE at this stage.
Philips Hue itself has caused the biggest leak in recent years: numerous products that were supposed to be unveiled in September appeared on the Hue website overnight. I now have further information about the Hue Bridge Pro, the upcoming control center from Philips Hue, discovered by SmartLights. The cover photo of this article already shows you the greatly improved performance data of the new Hue Bridge Pro.
A few days ago, I was still gathering rumors, but now Philips Hue has revealed numerous new products itself—on its own website. The highlight is undoubtedly the new Hue Bridge Pro, which offers numerous improvements—and a design with two small LEDs. “Our most advanced smart home hub is faster, has more capacity, and unlocks more features than ever before,” writes Philips Hue about the new Hue Bridge Pro.
