Professional Overview
The G5 Pro is the 4K workhorse of the UniFi Protect line, and this SKU supplies five of them. The five-pack is a site-scale quantity — a car park, a perimeter or a warehouse elevation typically needs cameras in this number, and the pack price per camera is lower than five singles.
The optics are what separate the Pro from the rest of the range. A 1/2" 8MP sensor feeds 4K video at 3840 x 2160, and the lens is a genuine 3x optical zoom at F 4.1–12.3 mm with an ƒ/1.53 maximum aperture. That means the field of view is adjustable at commissioning from 109.9° horizontal at wide to 35° at full telephoto, so the same camera can cover a broad forecourt or read detail at the far end of a yard without changing hardware. The fast ƒ/1.53 aperture is the reason its low-light performance holds up before the IR cuts in. IR night vision is rated 25 m, and up to 40 m with the optional Vision Enhancer accessory, which also adds a floodlight for colour night video.
Each camera is a ⌀86 x 154.3 mm bullet weighing 650 g, built in UV-stabilised polycarbonate on an aluminium alloy mount. IP65 means it is rated for fully exposed outdoor positions, unlike the covered-only IPX4 domes. Tamper resistance is IK04. Wall, ceiling and pole mounts are included, the pole mount taking 38–50 mm diameter, with a junction box and angled base available separately. Audio capture is via an integrated microphone; the G5 Pro records audio but is not a two-way intercom.
Each camera connects over a single PoE run to a 10/100 MbE RJ45 port at a maximum of 10W, or 12.95W with the Vision Enhancer fitted — so budget roughly 50W of PoE for the five, or 65W if every camera gets an Enhancer. Processing is a dual-core Arm Cortex-A53. Operating range is -20 to 50°C at 0 to 90% non-condensing humidity, with CE, FCC and IC certification. A UniFi Protect host is required.

The UVC-G5-PRO-5 is powered over Ethernet (PoE, up to Device: 10W Device with Enhancer: 12.95W), so a single cable carries both data and power. Budget that draw on the switch — PoE budget is shared across all powered ports. See the UniFi switch range for a switch with enough headroom.
This listing is the 5-pack. The specification below is for one G5 Pro camera; you receive five. Check your recorder has the channels and the storage for five 4K streams.
What the UVC-G5-PRO-5 needs to record
Every UniFi Protect camera records to a UniFi Protect console — a Network Video Recorder, or a Cloud Gateway or Dream Machine that runs Protect. The camera does not record to the cloud and there is no subscription: footage stays on the drive you supply.
If you are still choosing a recorder, our UniFi Protect NVR comparison covers the range, and the storage sizing guide works out how much disk you need for the number of cameras and retention you want. The full shopping list covers the drives, switch and cabling that go with it, and putting the feed on a TV covers live wall displays.
