Key Features:
- Premium True Full-Colour Night Vision: The G5 Pro takes night vision to the next level with a graphene-cooled 1/1.8” sensor and advanced True Colour Night Vision technology, delivering crystal-clear, high-definition images in low-light conditions. Enjoy stunning image quality with 4-megapixel 2.6K (1520p) resolution, a wide 133° field of view, and a groundbreaking f/1.0 aperture that captures 4 times more light than standard lenses, ensuring brighter and more detailed visuals at night. With a built-in spotlight, the G5 not only lights up dark areas but can also be set to deter intruders automatically, providing enhanced security and peace of mind.
- An Outdoor Camera Hub with Zigbee & Thread: The G5 Pro is a powerful hub that works as a Matter Controller, Matter Bridge, and Thread Border Router, ensuring smooth compatibility with the latest smart home ecosystems. It supports Aqara Zigbee and Thread devices as well as third-party Matter devices, allowing you to create local automation and connect with platforms like Apple Home, Alexa, and Google Home for a smarter, more convenient home*. It also acts as a mesh repeater to boost your network’s reliability and coverage.
- Advanced On-Device AI: Visual Features + Audio Features: Thanks to its built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU), the G5 Pro simultaneously offers visual detection—recognizing faces, vehicles, people entering its field of view, and lingering behaviour—and sound detection—listening for babies crying, alarms, barking, and coughing—allowing you to record key events and trigger automation locally even during internet outages, thereby enhancing the intelligence and reliability of your smart home system.
- Privacy and Security with the HomeKit: The G5 Pro stands out with seamless integration into Apple HomeKit Secure Video, offering unparalleled privacy and security. With End-to-End encryption, video streams never reach the cloud, including iCloud, ensuring full control over your data. Events like people, pets, vehicles, or packages are analysed locally on Apple TV or HomePod, keeping recordings private and confined to your home**. True-Colour Night Vision delivers vibrant clarity for reliable monitoring, while encrypted local storage and flexible backup options to NAS, Aqara Cloud, or iCloud provide secure and adaptable solutions for your surveillance needs.
- Superior Dual-Band Wi-Fi Connectivity: The G5 Pro (Wi-Fi) is equipped with a dual-band 2.4/5GHz Wi-Fi module, ensuring better compatibility and reduced interference for a smoother connection. It also supports the WPA3 standard, offering enhanced security for your network. Powered via a 5V/2A USB-C port, it provides added flexibility, allowing users to easily use cables of their preferred length for convenient setup.
- Local Storage and RTSP Support: The G5 Pro combines secure and flexible surveillance features with advanced storage options***. Its 32 GB encrypted eMMC storage enhances water resistance and reliability, while NAS (Network-Attached Storage) support allows users to expand storage effortlessly, creating customised solutions****. The G5 Pro supports RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol), allowing seamless integration with RTSP-compatible NVRs (Network Video Recorders) and VLC (VideoLAN Client) players. Compatibility with Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings ensures smooth smart home integration, while robust local streaming and scalable storage options make the G5 Pro a reliable choice for advanced surveillance.
- Flexible Streaming and Installation: The G5 Pro offers versatile streaming and installation options, supporting Real-Time Streaming Protocol for secure, low-latency video streaming within a local network and seamless integration with platforms like Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings, while its rotatable stand allows for flexible mounting on walls, ceilings, or tables and is compatible with standard 1/4 threaded screws for added customisation.
- Reliable in Extreme Environments: The G5 Pro features an IP65-rated water and dust-resistant housing, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Built to withstand extreme conditions, it operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -30°C to +50°C, ensuring your home stays protected through extreme weather conditions.
- Advanced Outdoor Monitoring with Privacy and Customisation: The G5 Pro delivers advanced outdoor monitoring with a 100 dB speaker and reliable two-way communication, enabling users to interact with visitors or deter intruders effectively. Its high-sensitivity microphone (-33dB) ensures clear audio capture, while features like Privacy Masking for up to three zones, Correlated Events for quick tracking, and customisable alerts provide tailored surveillance*****. Seamlessly integrated with the Aqara Home app, the G5 Pro also offers Anti-Theft Protection and event automation, making it a secure, innovative, and interactive monitoring solution.
Automation Capabilities:
1. Local security automation with Aqara device
IF Unknown person is detected in your garden,
THEN Start blinking with a spotlight, trigger a custom ringtone "Intruder detected, you're being recorded", and turn on the lights at home.
You will be able to set up different automation based on your presence at home; for example, when you are away, the Camera G5 Pro will try to scare an intruder and make the Aqara indoor smart lights pretend that the home is not empty.
(Requires: Camera Hub G5 Pro + Ceiling Light T1M + LED Strip T1)
2. Only recording when it is necessary
IF motion is detected by Sensor,
THEN Start audio recording.
The G5 Pro has revamped the Correlated Events feature*****, making it easier for users with added guidance. It now allows cloud video recordings triggered by associated devices. All Aqara smart devices can trigger the camera to record or send notifications, greatly expanding the event types. The new filtering options enable searches based on room, device type, tag colour, and event time, improving event review efficiency.
(Requires: Camera Hub G5 Pro + Motion Sensor P1 + Door and Window Sensor)
3. Creative way to use pet detection with an outdoor camera
IF Pet is detected at night,
THEN turn on the garden sprinkler.
Thanks to the Aqara Home easy to use IF-THEN automation engine, you will be able to solve various kinds of problems, such as wildcats visiting your garden against your will: the sprinkler controller can be triggered for this purpose.
(Requires: Camera Hub G5 Pro + Sprinkler Controller (controlled by the Aqara Relay T2)
4. Seamless indoor-to-outdoor automation
IF G5 Pro recognises a specific face,
THEN Turn on LED Bulb T2 and Curtain Driver E1.
When the G5 Pro detects a family member arriving home outdoors, it can automatically trigger indoor lighting and curtains. This creates an experience where smart automation is activated even before stepping through the door.
(Requires: Camera Hub G5 Pro + LED Bulb T2 + Curtain Driver E1)
