Low-rate wireless PAN radio standard used by Zigbee and Thread.

Knowledge about IEEE 802.15.4
Building Zigbee devices with ESP32: only the H2 and C6 have the radioguide · unverified · Espressif's 802.15.4 SoCs (ESP32-H2, ESP32-C6) can be Zigbee coordinator, router or end device. The classic ESP32 has no 802.15.4 radio; for a Wi-Fi-to-Zigbee gateway, pair a Wi-Fi SoC with an 802.15.4 radio co-processor.
Zigbee basics: coordinator, routers, end devices and the meshguide · unverified · How a Zigbee network is built: exactly one coordinator, mains-powered routers that relay traffic, sleepy end devices that talk through one parent, and how this differs from Thread on the same radio.
