I grabbed a TubesZB and it has made things so much easier. I can put it wherever I need it and if I need to migrate my HA VM to another host there is no fuss. Literally did it the other day and it worked flawlessly.
Why would a USB accessory need PoE?
Zigbee 4 support lacking in it is disappointing.

PoE needs to be more prevalent, IMO. When Smlight came out with the SLZB I jumped on it. Not only does it give me options for where to place it in my house, but it also allows me to make HA more resilient on my Proxmox cluster.
I know that this probably is an edge case and that the HA team wants to make things easier with the HA green and HA yellow so USB still makes sense, but if this or the SWA-2 had PoE as an option, it would have been a no brainer.

I guess I don’t see how tying the radio to a PoE microcontroller improves your resilience. Just changes the critical system.
