# B-hyve sprinkler controllers

*Orbit B-hyve / 6 models*

> Orbit sells six B-hyve sprinkler controllers, from a 4-station indoor model to the 16-station XR. All of them control 24 VAC valves and connect to the B-hyve app over Wi-Fi. The XR 8-station and 16-station list dual-band 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi. The 12-station, 6-zone, 8-zone indoor and 4-station indoor controllers list 2.4 GHz. Orbit lists Alexa and Google Assistant for the XR, 12-station, 6-zone and 4-station controllers. Its 8-zone indoor page states neither. The two indoor models mount inside the home. The 4-station has no master valve or pump start relay output, and the 8-zone indoor lists both.
