Running a second devices as HUB?

Hello,

Im very new to home assistant, so sorry if this question was already discussed here but i didnt find an answer.

I have my HA running in a VM on my Proxmox server, but the server sits in the basement of my House(not an ideal position to act as smarthomehub). I’m planning to set up a second devices(like an raspi with dongles) in a good central spot, as a ap for all my smarthome protocols. How can i let this raspi act as a hub for HA? are there anyways to create like HA bridges or something?

What devices?

WiFi doesn’t need it.

Zwave and Zigbee you can run as a docker or vm and just connect HA to them over network.

Another option is mqtt connection of your HA instances
