Power over Ethernet frame grabber

It supports two independent gigabit Ethernet ports for multiple gigabit Ethernet vision device connections with data transfer rates up to 1000Mb/s. By supporting the link aggregation control protocol, the two gigabit Ethernet ports can be configured as a link aggregation group and provide a sustained maximum data rate of 2Gb/s. The GIE62+ is Adlink's latest addition to its power over cable series of frame grabbers supporting Power over Camera Link, IEEE 1394b (FireWire 800), and now PoE. The company says the Power over cable solution provides single cable solutions between cameras and frame grabbers to provide both data and power. Ethan Huang, senior product director at Adlink, said: "This unique combination of features will be a great benefit for a wide range of applications, especially where high speed industrial vision is required. We've even included two of each isolated TTL digital inputs, outputs, and programmable trigger pulses to connect to external devices such as position sensors and strobe lighting to further simplify implementations of complex designs." The GIE62+ also provides automatic detection of being a powered device within the system to enable connections between other PoE and non-PoE cameras and frame grabber cards.
