Maximum number of orbbec astra on 1 computer

Technical Support & Q&A Basic

HI everyone,
I’m trying to connect a lot of orbbec astra on 1 pc but I can connect until the 5th camera. All the other cameras are ignored…is there a maximum number of camera in windows? Should I try on Linux?

Thank you!

EDIT : I’m using windows 10 Enterprise

EDIT: Ok I solved the problem. It was a motherboard limit. However is there a limit?

I emailed Orbbec about this some time ago and they said the most they’d ever tried connecting was 16 Astras via 4 powered USB hubs. Powered hubs are a good idea because the amount of current drawn by that many sensors may cause issues for some machines.
