The Orbbec Sync Hub Pro distributes hardware synchronization signals across a multi-camera installation. One primary camera can coordinate up to eight secondary cameras or compatible devices in a star layout, with a hub-to-hub port for larger systems.
The mountable controller uses RJ45 connections and standard network cabling for its synchronization links. Camera-specific sync adapters, network cables and a 5 V USB-C power connection are required for a working setup; these are separate setup components rather than confirmed contents of this hub-only listing.
Key Features
- One Primary In connection and eight secondary camera connections support star-topology synchronization.
- Hub-to-Hub RJ45 port supports expansion with additional Sync Hub Pro units.
- Mountable enclosure suits fixed multi-camera rigs and robotics installations.
- RJ45 interfaces use T568B network cabling; Orbbec recommends Cat5e or better for camera sync links.
- USB-C input provides the required 5 V hub power.
- Selectable 1.8 V, 3.3 V and 5 V synchronization I/O logic levels when powered as specified.
- Separate camera-specific sync adapters connect compatible Orbbec cameras to RJ45 cabling.
- The hub handles synchronization signals; camera data and camera power still require their own connections.

FAQ
One primary device can coordinate up to eight secondary cameras or compatible devices in a star connection.
Yes. The Hub-to-Hub interface supports connections to additional hubs.
No. It distributes synchronization signals. Each camera still needs its own data connection and power arrangement.
The hub uses a 5 V USB-C power input.
Yes. Select the adapter that matches the camera series and sync connector.
The setup guide specifies T568B-to-T568B Cat5e or better cabling and recommends a link shorter than 10 m.
The synchronization I/O level can be set to 1.8 V, 3.3 V or 5 V when the hub has the specified 5 V supply.
One Sync Hub Pro controller is listed. Camera adapters, network cables and USB-C power accessories are not confirmed as included.
