SMLight SMZB-06MU in both Zigbee and Matter?

[rose rapids]

I currently have a SMZB-06MU as my Zigbee coordinator, running in Zigbee only mode.

I would like to get Matter over thread devices as well, but I don't have a gateway yet.

Is it a good idea to use the SMLight SMZB-06MU in Zigbee/Matter over thread hybrid mode where the device acts as both my Zigbee coordinator and my Thread border router, or should I use a separate device as my Thread border router?

SMZB-06MU is single radio, so OR Zigbee OR Thread 🙂

In the past it was tried to use Zigbee and Thread via the same radio but that was just nog working good and is abandoned.
