It's a three-way tie at 7 USB ports. These three partner dev kits support the Jetson Orin Nano and have the highest USB count I found among dev kits for that module:

| Kit | Maker | USB ports | Supported modules | Other points for a camera setup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| JNX45-Kit | Auvidea | 7 | Orin Nano, Orin NX | 2 MIPI camera inputs, 1 Ethernet port |
| MIC-713S-ON | Advantech | 7 | Orin Nano (4GB and 8GB) | 4 GMSL camera inputs, 1 MIPI input, 5 Ethernet ports (4 PoE) |
| NV8600-Nano AI developer Kit (NV8600-KIT-JP620N-A1-1010) | AAEON | 7 | Orin Nano 8GB | 2 MIPI inputs, 4 GbE ports |
Before you buy:
- The 7 may include ports you can't use for cameras. The AAEON kit's description lists "6x USB 3.2 Gen 2," even though its total is 7. On another kit (AVerMedia D131LON), the total of 5 includes a Micro-B recovery port alongside 4 USB Type-A ports. I couldn't check how many of each kit's 7 ports are USB 3.x, or whether any share bandwidth. Several USB cameras streaming at once can need a lot of bandwidth, so check each kit's datasheet. up-shop.org +1up-shop.org ↗“6x USB 3.2 Gen 2”professional.avermedia.com ↗“four external USB Type-A ports and one Micro-B recovery port”
- NVIDIA's own Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit wasn't ranked because I couldn't find its USB port count. nvidia.comnvidia.com ↗“Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit”
- Two other partner kits for the Orin Nano have no USB count listed, so I can't say how they compare.
Next best: Nine kits have 5 USB ports, including:
- ADLINK DLAP-211-Orin Dev Kit
- Twowin Jetson Orin Nano TWOWIN Kit
- Leetop Subkit Orin Nano
- PLink-AI Y-C11 - DEV and Y-C18-DEV adlinktech... +4adlinktech.com ↗“io.usb_ports=5”twowintech.com ↗“5x USB”leetopgroup.com ↗“5x USB”plink-ai.com ↗“io.usb_ports=5”plink-ai.com ↗“io.usb_ports=5”
If USB bandwidth turns out to be the limit, the Advantech MIC-713S-ON's 4 GMSL camera inputs are another way to connect cameras. advantech...advantech.com ↗“io.gmsl_camera_inputs=4”
