| Pin | M12 pin | M8 pin | M8 functionality |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Eth MX0+ | BOOT | Pull this pin high with 10k resistor at startup for USB boot. |
| 2 | Eth MX0- | FSYNC ISO | Isolated Frame synchronization input signal for cameras |
| 3 | Eth MX1+ | USB D+ | USB 2.0 interface that can be used to connect to the OAK device (eg. reflash) if USB boot is enabled (via AUX GPIO 3V3). |
| 4 | Eth MX1- | USB D- | USB 2.0 interface that can be used to connect to the OAK device (eg. reflash) if USB boot is enabled (via AUX GPIO 3V3). |
| 5 | Eth MX3+ | VBUSIN | This pin is used for sourcing 5V power to accessory devices connected to the M8 connector. If trying to boot the device in USB boot mode, this pin can also sink current. |
| 6 | Eth MX3- | Strobe ISO | Isolated Strobe output signal for cameras |
| 7 | Eth MX2+ | GPIO 5V | GPIO 5V control signal |
| 8 | Eth MX2- | GND | Ground |
