ClearOne AWC5100 5-Megapixel Webcam
The ClearOne AWC5100 is a 5-megapixel USB webcam designed for desktop and laptop users who need reliable video for webinars, video conferencing and online communication platforms. It captures full-HD resolution at 1920 x 1080 using a CMOS image sensor and a wide 65° viewing angle lens. A built-in privacy cover slides over the lens when the camera is not in use. Dual noise-reducing microphones handle stereo audio capture for clearer sound in noisy environments.
Sustained streaming performance
During long calls the camera maintains its 1920 x 1080 output through automatic focus and automatic low-light shutter control that adjusts exposure without manual intervention. The CMOS 1/4 sensor and wide-angle lens work together to keep the image stable when lighting conditions change across a meeting. Fixed focus is also available if the scene distance remains constant. USB power means there is no external adapter to overheat during extended sessions.
USB 2.0 plug-and-play limits
Although the product lists a USB 3.0 interface, the manufacturer highlights specify USB 2.0 plug-and-play operation across Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, macOS, Linux and Android. This caps the practical bandwidth at the USB 2.0 rate, which governs the maximum frame rate and resolution the host can sustain. Compatibility with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, Google Meet, OBS Studio, YouTube and Facebook Live is achieved through standard UVC drivers, so no proprietary software installation is required.

Questions about this item
How much heat or fan noise does the AWC5100 produce when it runs all day on USB 3.0 power?
The webcam draws power directly from the USB 3.0 port and has no internal fan, so it adds virtually no heat or audible noise during extended use.
Which operating system and mounting option must I already have for the AWC5100 to work out of the box?
You need a device running Windows 10, 11, macOS or Linux with a free USB 3.0 port; the camera clips onto a monitor or sits on a flat surface with no extra brackets required.
Will the AWC5100’s 1920 x 1080 video and built-in dual microphone stay in sync on an older USB 2.0 hub?
The camera is USB 2.0 backward-compatible, so it will function on a legacy hub, but bandwidth limits may reduce frame rate at full 1080p resolution.
