Does the device require a MiCloud connection?
Do not know
Device definitely introduced before 2020.
Anything special about the device?
It's a gateway, so it determines the individual accessories paired to it.
It's used for Zigbee devices, mostly motion sensors (and running automations).
There's a plugin dedicated for this gateway, that's been long abandoned and doesn't work anymore - also the pairing instructions for that particular plugin don't match the current state of the Mi Home app.
