A Hub and Camera in One

The G5 Pro isn’t just a camera; it’s also a smart home hub. This means you can easily connect your Aqara Zigbee child devices – from motion sensors to smart locks – directly to this outdoor-ready hub. For those looking to expand their smart home setup beyond the four walls of their house, the G5 Pro offers a seamless solution.

Impressive Camera Capabilities

As a security camera, the G5 Pro doesn’t disappoint:

  • Crystal clear 1520p visuals
  • Color night vision for detailed nocturnal monitoring
  • Wide 133-degree field of view
  • AI-powered smart detection

Flexible Connectivity and Storage

The G5 Pro comes in two variants to suit your needs:

  1. Power over Ethernet (PoE) model
  2. Wi-Fi model

When it comes to storing your footage, you have options:

  • Onboard eMMC memory for local storage
  • NAS drive connectivity for expanded storage capacity

Smart Home Integration

While it doesn’t feature Matter controller capabilities like its cousin, the Aqara Hub M3, the G5 Pro still plays nicely with major smart home ecosystems:

  • Apple HomeKit Secure Video certified

Plus, it can act as a Matter bridge, bringing your non-Matter devices into the fold of your smart home setup.

The Outdoor Edge

Designed specifically for outdoor use, the G5 Pro simplifies the process of integrating outdoor-based devices into your Aqara smart home system. No more struggling with range issues or weatherproofing concerns – the G5 Pro has you covered.
