Aqara G5 Pro Outdoor Camera

The G5 Pro monitors, connects, and protects. An outdoor camera and Zigbee/Thread hub in one device, it records in 2.6K Quad HD with an f/1.0 aperture and true color night vision, even in overcast weather. Compatible with Matter, Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa, and SmartThings, it can be installed via dual-band Wi-Fi or PoE, depending on your setup.

A precise image day and night, in all weather

The graphene-cooled 1/1.8-inch sensor and f/1.0 aperture produce a detailed image at 2688 × 1520 pixels, even in low light. True Color night vision reproduces real colors without a harsh white spotlight. The 133° diagonal field of view covers a wide area without blind spots. IP65 certified and operational from -30°C to +50°C, the G5 Pro is designed to stay in place no matter the conditions.

A modern outdoor security camera that thinks and acts locally

The modern Aqara G5 Pro outdoor security camera features local AI capable of recognizing faces, vehicles, and certain sounds such as alarms or baby cries. Automations work locally, even in the event of an internet outage. Privacy is ensured by HomeKit Secure Video with end-to-end encryption, with no video stored in the cloud. Integrated encrypted eMMC storage and NAS support complete the recording options. The 100 dB speaker and two-way audio allow for effective communication and deterrence from the app.

Zigbee, Thread, and Matter Hub: a camera that extends your smart home

In addition to monitoring, the G5 Pro acts as a Zigbee and Thread hub and a Matter controller to connect your other Aqara and third-party smart devices. The PoE version is powered and connected via a single RJ45 Ethernet cable for a clean and stable installation. The Wi-Fi version operates on dual-band 2.4/5 GHz, secured by WPA3, with USB-C power. Both versions offer reliable connectivity suitable for very different configurations.

FAQ

What is the difference between the Wi-Fi and PoE versions of the G5 Pro?

The PoE (Power over Ethernet) version powers the device and transfers data through a single RJ45 Ethernet cable connected to a PoE switch or injector, ensuring maximum network reliability. The Wi-Fi version connects wirelessly to your network (supporting 2.4 and 5 GHz) and needs to be plugged into a standard power outlet using the included USB-C cable.

How does the G5 Pro record full-color night vision without turning on a white spotlight?

By pairing a premium, large 1/1/8-inch image sensor with an outstanding f/1.0 aperture lens, the camera captures minimal ambient light (such as moonlight or streetlights). This enables it to deliver true-to-life color night vision without needing to activate a harsh, glaring white light.

Does the camera's built-in smart home hub require an internet connection?

No. Operating as a local Zigbee/Thread hub and Matter controller, the G5 Pro executes your automation rules directly on its encrypted internal hardware. Your sensors and connected Aqara or third-party devices will keep interacting reliably on-site even during an internet outage.
