The `rflink` component supports devices that use [RFLink gateway firmware](http://www.nemcon.nl/blog2/), for example the [Nodo RFLink Gateway](https://www.nodo-shop.nl/nl/21-rflink-gateway). RFLink Gateway is an Arduino Mega firmware that allows two-way communication with a multitude of RF wireless devices using cheap hardware (Arduino + transceiver).

RFLink Gateway is an Arduino Mega firmware that allows two-way communication with a multitude of RF wireless devices using cheap hardware (Arduino + transceiver).
The 433 MHz spectrum is used by many manufacturers mostly using their own protocol/standard and includes devices like: light switches, blinds, weather stations, alarms and various other sensors.
RFLink Gateway supports a number of RF frequencies, using a wide range of low-cost hardware. [Their website](http://www.rflink.nl/blog2/) provides details for various RF transmitters, receivers and transceiver modules for 433MHz, 868MHz and 2.4 GHz.

Note: Versions later than R44 add support for Ikea Ansluta, Philips Living Colors Gen1 and MySensors devices.

[RFLink Switches](/components/switch.rflink/) and [RFLink Binary Sensors](/components/binary_sensor.rflink/) cannot be added automatically.
The RFLink component does not know the difference between a switch and a light. Therefore all switchable devices are automatically added as light by default. However, once the ID of a switch is known, it can be used to configure it as a switch type in HA, for example, to add it to a different group, hide it or configure a nice name.
