## Thread
Matter goes hand-in-hand with (but is not the same as) [Thread](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)>), which is a low power Radio mesh networking techology. Much like Zigbee, but with the key difference that it is _IP-addressable_, making it the perfect companion transport for Matter.

Thread devices become directly addressable by Matter controllers (such as Home Assistant) thanks to the use of so-called Thread Border Routers, which are in fact just devices that are both within your network and have a Thread chip builtin and thus act as a "router" between the Thread radio signal and your local network. These border routers (you will probably end up having multiple of them in your house) make sure that your Thread-based devices are reachable on your regular network and thus can be controlled with Matter. Examples of Thread Borders routers are the Apple TV 4K, HomePod (gen 2 or Mini), and the Google Nest Hub V2, so devices that you may already own. Besides that, all kind of other border routers are available, built-in to hardware appliances or software solutions based on OpenThread Border Router, such as the add-on we provide to use with the built-in Zigbee/Thread chip of the [Home Assistant Yellow](/yellow/) or the [Home Assistant SkyConnect](/skyconnect/) dongle.

SwitchBot has released a (beta) firmware update to enable Matter support on their Hub 2. The SwitchBot Hub 2 is a Matter bridge device. It is bridging some of the devices, such as curtain motors, into Matter.
SwitchBot has released a (beta) firmware update to enable Matter support on their Hub 2. The SwitchBot Hub 2 is a Matter bridge device. It is bridging some of the devices, such as curtain motors, into Matter.
- To use Matter, in the SwitchBot app, enable Matter bridge support. Then, copy the code and use that to commission the Hub to Home Assistant. Another option is to use a second device to scan the QR code.
- Device support is limited. You bridge specific devices to Matter by adding them as **Secondary device** in the app. Note that not all SwitchBot devices can be bridged.
